Ziggy MVC

Ziggy MVC is an MVC framework the CFML community, created originally as Framework-1 (https://github.com/framework-one/fw1) and then forked by South of Shasta (https://southofshasta.com/) and other members of the CFML community. For various reasons, development on Framework-1 had stalled, and we felt it best to create a fresh start, but built on top of the hardwork that FW/1 provided for us. Extra special thanks to Sean Corfield, the original creater or FW/1.

Ziggy MVC is backwards compatible with Framework-1. Your applications should work as-is on the Ziggy MVC codebase. Additionally, all of the

FW/1 documentation and sample code is still valid and works with Ziggy MVC. We have not (yet) made any breaking changes to the framework. Any such updates will be documented. You just need to use ziggy.cfc instead of one.cfc in your Application.cfc file.

Please read the Ziggy MVC Code of Conduct - we want Ziggy MVC to be a welcoming and supportive environment for everyone to feel comfortable contributing!

Running the Tests

Ziggy MVC is setup to run tests on Travis CI using the .travis.yml file.

To run tests manually, you'll need CommandBox installed.

Then run box install once to install the dependencies (TestBox is the only one currently).

Then start a server on port 8500 with your choice of CFML engine, e.g.,

box server start cfengine=lucee@5 port=8500

This will open a browser, running the Ziggy "Introduction" app.

You can then run the tests:

box testbox run verbose=false

If you get any failures, you can run this with more verbose, but still compact output:

box testbox run reporter=mintext
