question Open sourcing website code

[Adam Kiss]

Let's say there was a guy who was willing to open source of his code; Which files should not be included in the open git repository, so his site won't be compromised?

Thanks

Note: /site/config.php is a no-brainer

Adam - without seeing the code I am not sure we can help. It's a mystery meat question, no? How about an outline?

Adam: nothing else I guess. But if you do have written bad code in your templates, then of course one could use it against your site. Not sure why you want to do this? Allow people to contribute, to get feedback or as an example? If for example, one thing you could consider is releasing it as a site profile with dummy content or something like that.

Ouch, I didn't see this one coming.

I want to put whole source code of my website online; disregarding any passwords in custom modules, what files should be ignored by .git [along /site/config.php]?

Allow people to contribute, to get feedback or as an example?

There won't be db dump, just for reading through code, I guess. Seeing how different people deal with ProcessWire in real situations.

Seemed like a good idea ATM

I think it's a great idea. Assuming you can do it without any compromising data I'd love to see how other's approach things. I'm still settling in and working out my optimal workflow with ProcessWire so any other approaches are good to compare.

You'd just want /site/templates/ right? Or perhaps /site/modules/ too if you've got any module dependencies in the templates. If you want to make it installable as a site profile, then you'd want to run the site profile exporter and include the /site/install/ directory too. But you'd want to double check that none of your module-specific passwords are getting included in the profile.

ryan: I don't want it as installable site profile; just dump my site code to github for people interested in it to see.

[ryan]

I think the same applies whether site profile or not. Where have you written all your code? I'm guessing primarily just /site/templates/* but possibly /site/modules/ too.
