Installation Guide

This guide covers installation on various platforms. MIVO is designed to be lightweight and runs on almost any PHP-capable server.

📋 General Requirements

• PHP: 8.0 or higher
• Extensions: sqlite3, openssl, mbstring, json
• Database: SQLite (File based, no server needed)

---

🐋 Docker (Recommended)

The easiest way to run MIVO.

1. Build & Run

   docker-compose up -d --build

   Go to http://localhost:8080

2. Manual Pull (Alternative) If you prefer to pull the image manually:

   docker pull dyzulk/mivo:latest  # Stable
   docker pull dyzulk/mivo:v1.0.0  # Specific Version
   docker pull dyzulk/mivo:edge    # Bleeding Edge

Note: The database is persisted in app/Database via volumes.

🪶 Apache / OpenLiteSpeed

1. Document Root: Set your web server's document root to the public/ folder.
2. Rewrite Rules: Ensure mod_rewrite is enabled. MIVO includes a .htaccess file in public/ that handles URL routing automatically.
3. Permissions: Ensure the web server user (e.g., www-data) has write access to:
   • app/Database/ (directory and file)
   • app/Config/ (if using installer)
   • .env file

---

🟢 Nginx

Nginx does not read .htaccess. Use this configuration block in your server block:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name your-domain.com;
    root /path/to/mivo/public;
    index index.php;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php8.2-fpm.sock; # Adjust version
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {
        deny all;
    }
}

---

🪟 IIS (Windows)

1. Document Root: Point the site to the public/ folder.
2. Web Config: A web.config file has been provided in public/ to handle URL Rewriting.
3. Requirements: Ensure URL Rewrite Module 2.0 is installed on IIS.

---

📱 STB / Android (Awebserver / Termux)

Awebserver

1. Copy the MIVO files to /htdocs.
2. Point the document root to public if supported, or access via http://localhost:8080/public.
3. Ensure PHP version is compatible.

Termux

1. Install PHP: pkg install php
2. Navigate to MIVO directory: cd mivo
3. Use the built-in server:

   php mivo serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8080

4. Access via browser.

🌐 Shared Hosting (cPanel / DirectAdmin)

Most shared hosting uses Apache or OpenLiteSpeed, which is fully compatible.

1. Upload Files: Upload the MIVO files to public_html/mivo (or a subdomain folder).
2. Point Domain:
   • Recommended: Go to "Domains" or "Subdomains" in cPanel and set the Document Root to point strictly to the public/ folder (e.g., public_html/mivo/public).
   • Alternative: If you cannot change Document Root, you can move contents of public/ to the root public_html and move app/, routes/, etc. one level up (not recommended for security).
3. PHP Version: Select PHP 8.0+ in "Select PHP Version" menu.
4. Extensions: Ensure sqlite3 and fileinfo are checked.

---

🎛️ aaPanel (VPS)

1. Create Website: Add site -> PHP-8.x.
2. Site Directory:
   • Set Running Directory (bukan Site Directory) to /public.
   • Uncheck "Anti-XSS" (sometimes blocks config saving).
3. URL Rewrite: Select thinkphp or laravel template (compatible) OR just use the Nginx config provided above.
4. Permissions: Chown www user to the site directory.

---

☁️ PaaS Cloud (Railway / Render / Heroku)

WARNING: MIVO uses SQLite (File Database). Most PaaS cloud have Ephemeral Filesytem (Reset on restart).

• Requirement: You MUST mount a Persistent Volume/Disk.
• Mount Path: Mount your volume to /var/www/html/app/Database (or wherever you put MIVO).
• Docker: Use the Docker deployment method, it works natively on these platforms.

2. Install Application
   • Option A: CLI Run php mivo install in your terminal.
