Installing Aurora

Aurora is hosted in our private Composer repository so you must have a valid key file to require the vecode/aurora-app package, the base application.

Create key file

Create a new auth.json file in the root directory of your project with the following structure:

{
    "http-basic": {
        "cloud.vecode.net": {
            "username": "your-username",
            "password": "your-password"
        }
    }
}

Run Composer

Once you've set up your credentials, run Composer create-project in the same directory specifying the private repository URL this way:

composer create-project vecode/aurora-app . --repository-url=https://cloud.vecode.net/packages/

Once the command has finished you'll have an Aurora instance ready to start working on.

You'll need to create a .env file and finish your configuration as explained in the next topic.

Next up, Configuration.
