NOTE: The code of this project is pretty bad. Its hard to maintain, because it was kind of an overnight project with no real architecture. Please do not blame it. I know it is bad. But I will not fix it. The functionality is fixed and as long as it runs as expected, I will not change anything!
This project is specifically built for a single company with the specific purpose of allowing the employees to track their worktimes and manage holidays and illness. Furthermore, it provides the functionality to generate a PDF file that sums up the overtime and general worktime for each employee. It can also handle overtime transfer as well as overtime reduction days. Furthermore, the application is able to handle users from LDAP interfaces and provide admin permissions based on the LDAP group of a user. in Addition, the application can be updated without any server access only through the web interface
This application is licensed as public source. This means the source code is publicly available but the application can only be used by people who have my direct permission. It is strongly individual, so it might not match any user requirements. If you are interested in using this application for yourself please contact me for further information.
This application can be installed as any other symfony application. There is no extra configuration required except from the environment configuration that is described later in the README.
The development and code of this project is currently freezed, because it already matches all requirements that were described by the client. Therefore, this application will only be developed further if bugs occur, or the requirements are changing.
The following table describes all .env variables that need to be configured.
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
DATABASE_URL |
The URL to the database (MySQL or PostgreSQL) |
IS_DOCKER |
If the application is in a docker container |
LDAP_BASE_DN |
The LDAP base DN for searching |
LDAP_SEARCH_DN |
The DN to the searching LDAP user |
LDAP_SEARCH_PASSWORD |
The password to search LDAP with the search user |
LDAP_HOST |
The host of the LDAP server |
LDAP_ADMIN_GROUP |
The CN of the group that should have admin access |
LDAP_IT_GROUP |
The CN of the group that should have IT access |
The code quality of this project is bad, because it needed to be done quick and there are no major changes required in the future which is why this code will not be maintained in the future. Therefore, good code quality is not as important as it is normally. This is why this project has such a bad code quality. Many of the calculation algorithms could be refactored, but this would take a lot of time and is not worth it, because these algorithms will not change in the future anyway. So please do not judge me for my bad code. Usually it is way better ;)
