## Introduction
This is the reloaded version of the open source timetracker Kimai.
The new version has not much in common with its predecessor [Kimai v1](http://www.kimai.org) besides the basic ideas of time-tracking and the current development team.
This is the _reloaded_ version of the open source timetracker Kimai.
It is built from scratch and doesn't share any source code with its [predecessor](http://www.kimai.org).
But it adapts the same ideas and a clean & simple UI for your time-tracking experience.
Right now its in an early development phase, its usable but some advanced features from Kimai v1 are missing by now (like export and ODT invoices).
But we already support to [import your timesheets](var/docs/migration_v1.md) from Kimai v1.
By now it is in an pre-stable development phase, usable and with most advanced features from Kimai 1.
You can even [import your data](var/docs/migration_v1.md) and start testing and using it today.
It is developed with modern frameworks like [Symfony v4](https://github.com/symfony/symfony), [Doctrine](https://github.com/doctrine/),
[AdminLTE](https://github.com/kevinpapst/AdminLTEBundle/) and [many](composer.json) [more](package.json).
Kimai is a multi-language application and already translated to: English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Hungarian and Portuguese.
If you want to support us in translating Kimai, please [read this documentation](var/docs/translations.md).

You can see our development roadmap for the future in the [Milestones](https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2/milestones) sections.
### Installation
Our roadmap is open for changes and input from the community, please [send us](https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2/issues) your ideas and questions.
There are multiple ways to install Kimai, all of them described in the [installation docu](var/docs/installation.md):
## Installation
- [Recommended installation with GIT and Composer](var/docs/installation.md#recommended-setup)
- [Development setup](var/docs/installation.md#development-installation)
- [Docker](var/docs/docker.md)
- [1-click installations](var/docs/installation.md#hosting-and-1-click-installations)
- [FTP](var/docs/installation.md#ftp-installation)
> **NOTE**
>
> There are [further infos about installation](var/docs/installation.md) if you have to use FTP, want to develop with Kimai
or are setting up Kimai on your personal computer. There is also a [docker image](var/docs/docker.md) available.
### Updating Kimai
If you want to install Kimai 2 in your production environment, then SSH into your server and change to your webserver root.
You need to install Git and [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md) if you haven't already.
Read the following documentations before you start your upgrade:
First clone this repo:
- The [update documentation](var/docs/updates.md)
- The version specific [UPGRADING guide](UPGRADING.md)
- The [release information](https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2/releases)
```bash
git clone https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2.git
cd kimai2/
```
## Roadmap and releases
Make sure the [file permissions are correct](https://symfony.com/doc/current/setup/file_permissions.html) and create your `.env` file:
```bash
chown -R :www-data .
chmod -R g+r .
chmod -R g+rw var/
cp .env.dist .env
```
You can see our development roadmap in the [Milestones](https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2/milestones) sections.
It is open for changes and input from the community, your [ideas and questions](https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2/issues) are welcome!
It's up to you which database server you want to use, Kimai v2 supports MySQL/MariaDB and SQLite, but SQLite is [not recommended](var/docs/faq.md) for production usage.
Configure the database connection string in your the `.env` file:
```
# adjust all settings in .env to your needs
APP_ENV=prod
DATABASE_URL=mysql://user:password@127.0.0.1:3306/database
```
> Kimai 2 uses a rolling release concept for delivering updates.
> You can upgrade Kimai at any time, you don't need to wait for the next official release.
Now install all dependencies for Kimai 2:
```bash
sudo -u www-data composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader
```
Optionally create the database:
```bash
bin/console doctrine:database:create
```
Create all schema tables:
```bash
bin/console doctrine:schema:create
```
Make sure that upcoming updates can be correctly applied by setting the initial database version:
```bash
bin/console doctrine:migrations:version --add --all
```
Warm up the cache (as webserver user):
```bash
sudo -u www-data bin/console cache:warmup --env=prod
```
Create your first user with the following command. You will be asked to enter a password afterwards:
```bash
bin/console kimai:create-user username admin@example.com ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN
```
_Tip: You can skip the "create user" step, if you are going to [import data from Kimai v1](var/docs/migration_v1.md)._
For available roles, please refer to the [user documentation](var/docs/users.md).
> **NOTE**
>
> If you want to use a fully-featured web server (like Nginx or Apache) to run
> Kimai, configure it to point at the `public/` directory of the project.
> For more details, see:
> http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/configuration/web_server_configuration.html
Installation complete: enjoy time-tracking :-)
## Updating Kimai
> **NOTE**
>
> Don't forget tweaks that may be necessary to these instructions if you are using FTP, developing or updating on your
personal computer instead of a server. See [further infos about installation](var/docs/installation.md).
**STOP**
1. It's important that you don't execute the Installation steps before or after your upgrade
2. Make sure that you have a working database backup before you start the update

sudo -u www-data bin/console cache:warmup --env=prod
```
And upgrade your database:
```bash
bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
```
Done! You can use the latest version of Kimai 2.
## Rolling releases & Git
Please note: Kimai 2 uses a rolling release concept for delivering updates.
Release versions will be created on a regular base and you can use these tags if you are familiar with Git, but we
will not provide support for any specific version (whether its bugs or installation/update docu).
Every code change, whether it's a new features or bug fixes, will be targeted against the master branch and
intensively tested before merging. We have to go this way, as we develop Kimai in our free time and want to put our
effort into the software instead of installation scripts and complicated upgrade processes.
