About Changelog Mgr

Changelog Mgr is a web application for managing application changelogs. It houses modules for creating, updating and deleting changelogs as well as changelog categories. This provides two outputs, changelog public page and the embeddable widget.

  2. Clone the project repository at https://github.com/aloware/changelog.

  3. Create projects .env file using cp .env.example .env, add/set the following environment variables. For Database and Redis, this is important as these variables will be used to configure the docker container.

    Database

    • CREATE USER 'db_user_defined_in_env_file'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'db_pw_defined_in_env_file';
    • GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'db_user_defined_in_env_file'@'%';
    • FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
