Okay, let's set up the initial project structure for your online game store. This will include the main directories and placeholder files based on your requirements.
This sets up the basic directory structure, configuration, Composer setup, bootstrap file, main public entry points (index.php
, bot.php
, admin/index.php
), placeholder template files with basic HTML and structure, initial CSS/JS files, and a .gitignore
file.
Next Steps:
composer install
in the /home/user
directory to install dependencies (like PHPMailer).game_store
or your chosen name) and configure the connection details in config.php
.config.php
./home/user/public
directory. Ensure URL rewriting (e.g., via .htaccess
for Apache or server config for Nginx) is enabled to direct all requests to public/index.php
(except for existing files/directories like assets).src/
directory (Controllers, Models, Services).templates/
directory with dynamic data.bot.php
(or preferably move logic to src/Services/TelegramService
and src/Controllers/TelegramController
).Okay, to make this project easily runnable with XAMPP (which typically uses Apache as the web server), we need to add an .htaccess
file to the public
directory. This file will handle URL rewriting, ensuring that requests like /catalog
or /profile
are correctly routed through public/index.php
.
I will add the .htaccess
file to the project structure. Remember to place the entire project folder (e.g., named game-store
) inside your XAMPP htdocs
directory.
Key Changes for XAMPP:
public/.htaccess
Added: This file tells Apache (used by XAMPP) how to handle URLs.
RewriteEngine On
).!-f
) or directory (!-d
) to index.php
. This allows your PHP router (public/index.php
) to handle clean URLs like /catalog
or /admin/users
.RewriteBase
inside public/.htaccess
if your project lives in a subdirectory within htdocs
(e.g., htdocs/my-game-store/
). If your URL is http://localhost/my-game-store/
, you'd likely set RewriteBase /my-game-store/
..htaccess
(Root Directory): Added a basic .htaccess
in the project root for security, denying direct web access to sensitive directories like vendor/
, src/
, logs/
, and specific files like composer.json
.config.php
Notes: Added comments reminding you to check database credentials and potentially adjust SITE_URL
based on your XAMPP setup.bootstrap.php
: Added more explicit checks and error messages if Composer dependencies are missing or the database connection fails, which can be helpful when setting up in XAMPP.functions.php
): Updated url()
and asset()
helpers to better handle base URLs and paths, considering potential subdirectories.url()
and asset()
helper functions for generating links and referencing assets. This makes them adapt correctly if you change SITE_URL
or use a subdirectory.To Run with XAMPP:
game-store
) inside your XAMPP htdocs
directory (usually C:\xampp\htdocs
on Windows).cd C:\xampp\htdocs\game-store
), and run composer install
. This will download the necessary libraries (like PHPMailer) into the vendor
directory.http://localhost/phpmyadmin
), create a new database named game_store
(or whatever you set in config.php
). You don't need to create tables yet.config.php
with your actual Telegram token, payment keys, and potentially adjust SITE_URL
if you're accessing the site via a subdirectory (e.g., http://localhost/game-store
).http://localhost/game-store/
or http://localhost/
if it's directly in htdocs
).
