This is a yii2 advanced application template based app comes with pre-installed RBAC (mdmsoft/yii2-admin), User profile (dektrium/yii2-user), upload files plugin (mdmsoft/yii2-upload-file) and few more coming to boostup initial development time.

Before start installation procedure, make sure composer and git is installed properly. Check this: Composer and php environment variable fix

Yii2 AdvancedApp Installation

1. Clone or download the GitHub repo and extract it in your webroot.
2. Install the scripts simply by one 2 words command

composer install

and then run

init

3. Create a Database named yii2_advance or as your preferred and update the db config.
4. To get rid of the access control issues with console application (e.g.
yii migrate), in the file your-app-path/yii comment out the line require(__DIR__ . '/common/config/main.php'), in config marge function $config = yii\helpers\ArrayHelper::merge
The $config var in application root yii file will look like this:

$config = yii\helpers\ArrayHelper::merge(
//    require(__DIR__ . '/common/config/main.php'), // Commented to avoid yii-admin access controll issues
    require(__DIR__ . '/common/config/main-local.php'),
    require(__DIR__ . '/console/config/main.php'),
    require(__DIR__ . '/console/config/main-local.php')
);

5. Run all DB migration simply by

yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/azraf/yii2-simpleapp/migrations/initials

After the migration task complete, we can revert the yii $config, that we have done in step 4. But have to keep in mind that, if further console command needed, we have to do the step 4 again.

You have all set! Now try it.

POST INSTALLATION TASK

1. You can change the mdm\yii2-admin web access path by setting any custom word instead of admin in the line $mdmAdminPath = 'admin'; of the config file:

common\config\main.php

2. Then browse to http://[YOUR-APPLICATION-PATH]/index.php/admin/ in your browser. If you have changed the $mdmAdminPath value in config, then change the URL accordingly.

3. Configure Yii2-admin as your need, set Permission/Roles and assign them to User

4. After configuration complete, comment out the line in your configuration file’s 'as access' part.

    'as access' => [
        'class' => 'mdm\admin\components\AccessControl',
        'allowActions' => [
//          $mdmAdminPath.'/*'', // ::: IMPORTANT :::: Make it disable after configuring the USER Roles/Permissions

Now you all set!
