30 - If you haven't already, [install git](https://git-scm.com/downloads) for your system
31 - (optional) If you want to set up the base services(e.g. git, docker, docker-compose, openemr-cmd, minkube and kubectl) easily, please try [openemr-env-installer](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/tree/master/utilities/openemr-env-installer)
32 - (optional) It's best to also add an `upstream` origin to keep your local fork up to date. [Check out this guide](https://oneemptymind.wordpress.com/2018/07/11/keeping-a-fork-up-to-date/) for more info.
33 2. `cd openemr/docker/development-easy` (if you are running this on Raspberry Pi, then instead do `cd openemr/docker/development-easy-arm32` or `cd openemr/docker/development-easy-arm64`)
34 - If you haven't already, [install Docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/) and [install compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) for your system
35 - (optional) If you want to troubleshoot with the below steps easier, please also [install openemr-cmd](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/tree/master/utilities/openemr-cmd) for your system
36 - (optional) If you want to monitor and easily manage the docker environment, please also [install openemr-monitor](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/tree/master/utilities/openemr-monitor) and [install portainer](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/tree/master/utilities/portainer) for your system
37 - (optional) If you want to migrate the running docker environment, please try [openemr-env-migrator](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/tree/master/utilities/openemr-env-migrator)
38 - (optional) If you want to set up with orchestration tool, please try [OpenEMR Kubernetes Orchestrations](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/tree/master/kubernetes/minikube)
39 3. Run `docker-compose up` from your command line
40 - When the build is done, you'll see the following message:
42 openemr_1 | Love OpenEMR? You can now support the project via the open collective:
43 openemr_1 | > https://opencollective.com/openemr/donate
45 openemr_1 | Starting cron daemon!
46 openemr_1 | Starting apache!
48 4. Navigate to `http://localhost:8300/` or `https://localhost:9300/` to login as `admin`. Password is `pass`.
49 5. If you wish to connect to the sql database, this docker environment provides the following 2 options:
50 - Navigate to `http://localhost:8310/` where you can login into phpMyAdmin.
51 - Or you can directly connect to port 8320 via your favorite sql tool (Mysql Workbench etc.).
52 - Use `username/user`: openemr, `password`: openemr .
53 6. Make changes to any files on your local file system. Most changes will appear after a refresh of the page or iFrame you're working on.

63 - An exception to this is if making changes to styling scripts in interface/themes/. In that case will need to clear web browser cache and run the following command to rebuild the theme files:
65 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools build-themes'
67 7. When you're done, it's best to clean up after yourself with `docker-compose down -v`
68 - If you don't want to build from scratch every time, just use `docker-compose down` so your next `docker-compose up` will use the cached volumes.
69 8. To ensure you are using the most recent dockers, recommend running below set of commands intermittently:
71 docker pull openemr/openemr:flex
72 docker pull mariadb:11.4
73 docker pull phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin
75 docker pull openemr/dev-ldap:easy
77 9. [Submit a PR](https://github.com/openemr/openemr/compare) from your fork into `openemr/openemr#master`!
79 We look forward to your contribution...

121 - Firefox/Chrome install xdebug helper add on and enable
122 - PHPStorm Settings->Language & Frameworks->PHP->Debug
124 - Untoggle "Break at first line in PHP scripts"
125 - Untoggle both settings that start with "Force Break at first line..."
126 - See [these images for more detail](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/pull/283#issuecomment-779798156)
129 - Use this `launch.json` [template](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/issues/285#issuecomment-782899207)
130 - Make sure port 9003 is open on your host operating system
131 - Profiling output can be found in /tmp directory in the docker. Following will list the profiling output files:
133 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools list-xdebug-profiles'
135 - To check Xdebug log:
137 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools xdebug-log'
139 2. <a name="api"></a>API development and testing.
140 - Swagger is including in OpenEMR to ease API documentation, development, and testing.
141 - The following command will update the API documentation (derive documentation from [_rest_routes.inc.php](_rest_routes.inc.php) to [swagger/openemr-api.yaml](swagger/openemr-api.yaml)):
143 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools build-api-docs'
145 - Can go to Swagger at [https://localhost:9300/swagger](https://localhost:9300/swagger) where it is super easy to test the API:
146 - First, click on 'Authorize' button.
147 - Then click 'Select All' scopes.
148 - Can then do the following from command line to get a client id and secret, which then can copy/paste into the fields:
150 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools register-oauth2-client'
152 - Then click 'Authorize' button and follow the flow and before you know it, you will be authorized to test the api endpoints!
153 - There is also a mechanism to allow use of the above Swagger tool with multisite.
154 - Before going to the Swagger gui linked above, run the following command (after running below command, the Swagger gui will then be configured to work with the selected multisite):
156 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools set-swagger-to-multisite <multisite-name>'
158 - To collect a client id and secret for the selected multisite, can then do:
160 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools register-oauth2-client <multisite-name>'
162 - When done testing with Swagger on the selected multisite, recommend setting swagger back to the default multisite to avoid changes to the swagger configuration script showing up in your local git repository:
164 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools set-swagger-to-multisite'
166 - There is also a dev tool to make it easy to test the API on the online OpenEMR demo farm. For example, what if you wanted to test the API at [https://eleven.openemr.io/a/openemr](https://eleven.openemr.io/a/openemr):
167 - Go to [https://eleven.openemr.io/a/openemr/swagger](https://eleven.openemr.io/a/openemr/swagger/index.html) and follow the Swagger gui flow above. The following command can be used to get a client id and secret from that online demo:
169 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools register-oauth2-client-demo https://eleven.openemr.io/a/openemr'
171 3. <a name="other_php_versions"></a>Testing other PHP versions.
172 - The standard `flex` docker used in the easy development environments is PHP 8.3. This can be modified by changing the image (`image: openemr/openemr:flex`) used in the docker-compose.yml script. To use PHP 8.1, then just need to change it to `image: openemr/openemr:flex-3.17`. To use PHP 8.2, then just need to change it to `image: openemr/openemr:flex-3.18`.
173 4. <a name="dev_tools_tests"></a>Php syntax checking, psr12 checking, and automated testing.
174 - To check PHP error logs:
176 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools php-log'
178 - To create a report of PSR12 code styling issues (this takes several minutes):
180 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools psr12-report'
182 - To fix PSR12 code styling issues (this takes several minutes):
184 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools psr12-fix'
186 - To create a report of theme styling issues:
188 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools lint-themes-report'
190 - To fix theme styling issues:
192 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools lint-themes-fix'
194 - To check PHP parsing errors (this takes several minutes):
196 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools php-parserror'
198 - To run unit testing:
200 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools unit-test'
202 - To run api testing:
204 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools api-test'

294 - Here is how to send a capsule into the docker.
295 - Copy the capsule from current directory into the docker (using `example.tgz` below):
297 docker cp example.tgz $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " "):/snapshots/
299 - Restore from the new shiny snapshot (using `example` below):
301 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools restore example'
303 - Ensure run upgrade to ensure will work with current version OpenEMR:
305 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools upgrade 5.0.2'
307 10. <a name="dev_tools_randompatients"></a>Create and add random patient data. This will use synthea to create random patients that are then imported into OpenEMR. You can choose the number of patients. Note that each patient will take several seconds.

314 - Create and add 100 random patients (defaults to development mode set to true, which is set be default to true; development mode will markedly improve performance by bypassing the import of the ccda document and bypassing the use of the audit_master and audit_details tables and will directly import the new patient data from the ccda. Note this should never be done on sites that already contain real data/use, and it will also turn off the audit log during the import.):
316 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools import-random-patients 100'
320 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools import-random-patients 100 true'
322 - Create and add 100 random patients (with development mode set to false)
324 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools import-random-patients 100 false'
326 11. <a name="dev_tools_bankmultisite"></a>Create a bank of multisites with selected number of multisites that are all labelled from run1..runx. It will clone from the default instance. This can be helpful for testing of multisites and other larger scale testing.
327 - Create 5 multisites (will be run1, run2, run3, run4, run5):
329 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools generate-multisite-bank 5'
331 12. <a name="dev_tools_multisite"></a>Turn on and turn off support for multisite feature (to allow setting up multisites in setup.php script).
332 - Turn on support for multisite:
334 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools enable-multisite'
336 - Turn off support for multisite:
338 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools disable-multisite'
340 13. <a name="dev_tools_listmultisite"></a>The available multsites can be listed via following command:
342 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools list-multisites'
344 14. <a name="dev_tools_charset"></a>Change the database character set and collation (character set is the encoding that is used to store data in the database; collation are a set of rules that the database uses to sort the stored data).
345 - Best to demonstrate this devtool with examples.
346 - Set character set to utf8mb4 and collation to utf8mb4_general_ci (this is default for OpenEMR 6 and higher):
348 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools change-encoding-collation utf8mb4 utf8mb4_general_ci'
350 - Set character set to utf8mb4 and collation to utf8mb4_unicode_ci:
352 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools change-encoding-collation utf8mb4 utf8mb4_unicode_ci'
354 - Set character set to utf8mb4 and collation to utf8mb4_vietnamese_ci:
356 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools change-encoding-collation utf8mb4 utf8mb4_vietnamese_ci'
358 - Set character set to utf8 and collation to utf8_general_ci (this is default for OpenEMR 5 and lower):
360 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools change-encoding-collation utf8 utf8_general_ci'
362 15. <a name="dev_tools_https"></a>Test ssl certificate (to test client based certificates and revert back to default self signed certificate) and force/unforce https.
363 - To test client based certificates, create a zip package of the certificate in OpenEMR at Administration->System->Certificates. Then can import this zip package (example `ssl.zip`) into the docker via:
365 docker cp ssl.zip $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " "):/certs/

369 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools list-client-certs'
371 - To install and configure a certificate package (example `ssl`):
373 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools setup-client-cert ssl'
375 - To revert back to selfsigned certicates (ie. revert the changes required for client based certificates):
377 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools on-self-signed-cert'
379 - To force https in apache script via redirect:
381 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools force-https'
383 - To revert the changes that forced https in apache script:
385 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools un-force-https'
387 16. <a name="dev_tools_ssl"></a>Place/remove testing sql ssl certificate and testing sql ssl client key/cert.

394 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools sql-ssl-off'
396 - Place the testing sql ssl CA cert and testing sql ssl client key/cert:
398 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools sql-ssl-client'
400 - Remove the testing sql ssl CA cert and testing sql ssl client key/cert:
402 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools sql-ssl-client-off'
404 17. <a name="dev_tools_couchdb"></a>CouchDB integration.
405 - In OpenEMR, CouchDB is an option for the patients document storage. For this reason, a CouchDB docker is included in this OpenEMR docker development environment. You can visit the CouchDB GUI directly via http://localhost:5984/_utils/ or https://localhost:6984/_utils/ with username `admin` and password `password`. You can configure OpenEMR to use this CouchDB docker for patient document storage in OpenEMR at Administration->Globals->Documents:
406 - Document Storage Method->CouchDB
407 - After running the following devtools, 'dev-reset', 'dev-install', 'dev-reset-install', 'dev-reset-install-demodata', 'restore-snapshot', then need to restart the couchdb docker via the following command:
409 docker restart $(docker ps | grep _couchdb_1 | cut -f 1 -d " ")
411 - Developer tools to place/remove testing couchdb ssl certificate and testing couchdb ssl client key/cert.
412 - Place the testing couchdb ssl CA cert:
414 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools couchdb-ssl'
416 - Remove the testing couchdb ssl CA cert:
418 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools couchdb-ssl-off'
420 - Place the testing couchdb ssl CA cert and testing couchdb ssl client key/cert:
422 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools couchdb-ssl-client'
424 - Remove the testing couchdb ssl CA cert and testing couchdb ssl client key/cert:
426 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools couchdb-ssl-client-off'
428 18. <a name="dev_tools_ldap"></a>LDAP integration.
429 - In OpenEMR, LDAP is an option for authentication. If this is turned on, then this will be supported for the `admin` user, which will use the following password: `admin`
432 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools enable-ldap'
436 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools disable-ldap'
438 - Developer tools to place/remove testing ldap tls/ssl certificate and testing ldap tls/ssl client key/cert.
439 - Place the testing ldap tls/ssl CA cert:
441 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools ldap-ssl'
443 - Remove the testing ldap tls/ssl CA cert:
445 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools ldap-ssl-off'
447 - Place the testing ldap tls/ssl CA cert and testing ldap tls/ssl client key/cert:

453 docker exec -i $(docker ps | grep _openemr | cut -f 1 -d " ") sh -c '/root/devtools ldap-ssl-client-off'
455 19. <a name="dev_tools_webroot"></a>Test webroot value.
456 - The default setup of the docker development environments are with a blank webroot, however, it is a good idea to also test with a webroot setting. There is an option to set the webroot to openemr.
457 - Note this dev tool requires the use of the openemr-cmd script, which is discussed above and can find instructions to install and use openemr-cmd script at [install openemr-cmd](https://github.com/openemr/openemr-devops/tree/master/utilities/openemr-cmd).
458 - Set webroot to blank:
460 openemr-cmd change-webroot-blank
462 - Set webroot to `openemr`:
464 openemr-cmd change-webroot-openemr
469 If you do not want to use Docker, you can always install OpenEMR directly on your local environment. This will require installing additional dependencies for your operating system. For more info see [OpenEMR Development Versions](https://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/OpenEMR_Installation_Guides#OpenEMR_Development_Versions) on the wiki.
