====== Set up a test environment ======
==== Local web server set up ====
Admidio requires a web server with PHP support and a MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL database. This is already done usually set up on the web space. For developing it is advisable to set up a web server along with PHP and MySQL locally. There are available for Windows and Linux, the [[https://www.apachefriends.org/de/xampp.html|XAMPP-Package]] or for MacOS, the [[https://www.mamp.info/de/|MAMPP Package]] which provides all components and also has an installation wizard. To install the packages you should read the documentation at the project home page. If the web server is installed successfully, you even should adjust [[php.ini_einstellungen|some settings]].

==== Set up Admidio ====
The source code of Admidio can be downloaded with a GitHub client from the [[fehlerkorrekturen_in_mehreren_versionen|Source Code Management]]. Alternatively, you can also download the zip file from our [[https://github.com/admidio|GitHub-Repository]]. The (unzipped) files you have to copy in the **htdocs** path of your Web server. In the next step you need to copy in the Admidio folder **adm_my_files** the file **config_default.php** and save as **config.php**. Open this file and enter your data in there. If you work with our supplied test data, then the table prefix **DEMO** and an organization **DEMO** must be entered. The following two items you should still complete in the **config.php**: 
<code php>$gDebug = 1;
$gImportDemoData = 1;</code>
The first variable activates a [[php.ini_einstellungen#admidio-debug-flag|Debug Output]]. With the second setting you are able to import the test data in your database. If not already done, you should have adapted the [[php.ini_einstellungen|PHP log file]] accordingly.\\ 
After you have the source code on your system you must run [[https://getcomposer.org|Composer]] to install the depending libraries. Therefore you should install Composer and then run the command ''composer update'' at the Admidio folder. If you could not use composer you can [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/admidio/files/Vendor/admidio-vendor-5.0.zip/download|download the vendor folder]] and place it in the root folder of Admidio.
==== Upload test data ====
After the Admidio files are copied and the configuration file is adapted , our supplied test data can now be imported. The dataset is approximately equal to the [[https://www.admidio.org/demo/|Demo area]].

Did you have downloaded or cloned Admidio about [[https://github.com/admidio|GitHub]], there is a folder **demo_data**. Call these via the browser to ''https://your_local_admidio_installation/demo_data'' and you will get a page that briefly describes you the impact of the next step and a link which selectively takes you to the start of filling the database with test data in English or German.

If the script successfully gone through with the message //installation successful//, you must now even call the now displayed link to the update script. The test data are always recorded in the just-released version. The source code of the trunk normally are further developed and for this reason the database now needs to be updated.

Now your Admidio test environment is now set up and you can begin with the development of new features!
