-## Requirements
+* [Installation Instructions](https://www.bookstackapp.com/docs/admin/installation)
+* [Documentation](https://www.bookstackapp.com/docs)
+* [Demo Instance](https://demo.bookstackapp.com)

-BookStack has similar requirements to Laravel. On top of those are some front-end build tools which are only required when developing.
+## Development & Testing
-* PHP >= 5.5.9
-* OpenSSL PHP Extension
-* PDO PHP Extension
-* MBstring PHP Extension
-* Tokenizer PHP Extension
-* MySQL >= 5.6
-* Git (Not strictly required but helps manage updates)
-* [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/)
-* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) **Development Only**
-* [Gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) **Development Only**
+All development on BookStack is currently done on the master branch. When it's time for a release the master branch is merged into release with built & minified CSS & JS then tagged at it's version. Here are the current development requirements:
+* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) v6.9+
-## Installation
+SASS is used to help the CSS development and the JavaScript is run through browserify/babel to allow for writing ES6 code. Both of these are done using gulp. To run the build task you can use the following commands:
-Ensure the requirements are met before installing.
+``` bash
+# Build and minify for production
+npm run-script build
-Currently BookStack requires its own domain/subdomain and will not work in a site subdirectory.
-
-This project currently uses the `release` branch of this repository as a stable channel for providing updates.
-
-The installation is currently somewhat complicated and will be made simpler in future releases. Some PHP/Laravel experience will currently benefit.
-
-1. Clone the release branch of this repository into a folder.
-
-```
-git clone https://github.com/ssddanbrown/BookStack.git --branch release --single-branch
-```
-
-2. `cd` into the application folder and run `composer install`.
-3. Copy the `.env.example` file to `.env` and fill with your own database and mail details.
-4. Ensure the `storage` & `bootstrap/cache` folders are writable by the web server.
-5. In the application root, Run `php artisan key:generate` to generate a unique application key.
-6. If not using apache or if `.htaccess` files are disabled you will have to create some URL rewrite rules as shown below.
-7. Run `php artisan migrate` to update the database.
-8. Done! You can now login using the default admin details `
[email protected]` with a password of `password`. It is recommended to change these details directly after first logging in.
-
-#### URL Rewrite rules
-
-**Apache**
-```
-Options +FollowSymLinks
-RewriteEngine On
-
-RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
-RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
-RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
-```
-
-**Nginx**
-```
-location / {
- try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
-}
+# Build for dev (With sourcemaps) and watch for changes
+npm run-script dev
```
-## Updating BookStack
-
-To update BookStack you can run the following command in the root directory of the application:
-```
-git pull origin release && composer install && php artisan migrate
-```
-This command will update the repository that was created in the installation, install the PHP dependencies using `composer` then run the database migrations.
-
-## Social Authentication
-
-BookStack currently supports login via both Google and Github. Once enabled options for these services will show up in the login, registration and user profile pages. By default these services are disabled. To enable them you will have to create an application on the external services to obtain the require application id's and secrets. Here are instructions to do this for the current supported services:
-
-### Google
-
-1. Open the [Google Developers Console](https://console.developers.google.com/).
-2. Create a new project (May have to wait a short while for it to be created).
-3. Select 'Enable and manage APIs'.
-4. Enable the 'Google+ API'.
-5. In 'Credentials' choose the 'OAuth consent screen' tab and enter a product name ('BookStack' or your custom set name).
-6. Back in the 'Credentials' tab click 'New credentials' > 'OAuth client ID'.
-7. Choose an application type of 'Web application' and enter the following urls under 'Authorized redirect URIs', changing `https://example.com` to your own domain where BookStack is hosted:
- - `https://example.com/login/service/google/callback`
- - `https://example.com/register/service/google/callback`
-8. Click 'Create' and your app_id and secret will be displayed. Replace the false value on both the `GOOGLE_APP_ID` & `GOOGLE_APP_SECRET` variables in the '.env' file in the BookStack root directory with your own app_id and secret.
-9. Set the 'APP_URL' environment variable to be the same domain as you entered in step 7. So, in this example, it will be `https://example.com`.
-10. All done! Users should now be able to link to their social accounts in their account profile pages and also register/login using their Google accounts.
-
-### Github
-
-1. While logged in, open up your [GitHub developer applications](https://github.com/settings/developers).
-2. Click 'Register new application'.
-3. Enter an application name ('BookStack' or your custom set name), A link to your app instance under 'Homepage URL' and an 'Authorization callback URL' of the url that your BookStack instance is hosted on then click 'Register application'.
-4. A 'Client ID' and a 'Client Secret' value will be shown. Add these two values to the to the `GITHUB_APP_ID` and `GITHUB_APP_SECRET` variables, replacing the default false value, in the '.env' file found in the BookStack root folder.
-5. Set the 'APP_URL' environment variable to be the same domain as you entered in step 3.
-6. All done! Users should now be able to link to their social accounts in their account profile pages and also register/login using their Github account.
-
-## Testing
BookStack has many integration tests that use Laravel's built-in testing capabilities which makes use of PHPUnit. To use you will need PHPUnit installed and accessible via command line. There is a `mysql_testing` database defined within the app config which is what is used by PHPUnit. This database is set with the following database name, user name and password defined as `bookstack-test`. You will have to create that database and credentials before testing.
The testing database will also need migrating and seeding beforehand. This can be done with the following commands:
-```
+``` bash
php artisan migrate --database=mysql_testing
php artisan db:seed --class=DummyContentSeeder --database=mysql_testing
```
-Once done you can run `phpunit` (or `./vendor/bin/phpunit` if `phpunit` is not found) in the application root directory to run all tests.
+Once done you can run `phpunit` in the application root directory to run all tests.
