Laravel是基于PHP的一个开源MVC框架，优点不少，缺点也有。这里就不细说，专注于Laravel的安装。由于国内的关系，不能直接使用composer直接安装，本文主要展开讲解的是使用Laravel提供的一键安装包（http://www.golaravel.com/download/）。
下载Laravel一键安装包
下载地址（https://github.com/laravel/laravel）,注意不同版本对PHP版本有要求，本文下载的版本是laravel-v5.2.15
安装PHP和对应的扩展
本文使用的Laravel版本是laravel-v5.2.15，对PHP版本要求如下：
PHP >= 5.6.4
OpenSSL PHP Extension
PDO PHP Extension
Mbstring PHP Extension
Tokenizer PHP Extension
XML PHP Extension
上边的PHP扩展有兴趣的可以研究一下是干什么的，这里不细说，有什么疑惑可以共同探讨。
本文使用的是ubuntu16.04，使用下面的命令安装PHP：
sudo apt-get install php
当前默认的版本是php7.0。然后使用下面的命令安装几个扩展：
sudo apt-get install php-fpm php-cli php-mcrypt
安装nginx
本文使用的是 nginx/1.10.0 (Ubuntu)，使用下面的命令安装即可：
sudo apt-get install nginx
修改PHP配置
主要修改的是php.ini文件中的cgi.fix_pathinfo=1，默认是1，需要修改为0。执行下面的命令即可：
sudo gedit /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini
找到 cgi.fix_pathinfo=1 修改为 cgi.fix_pathinfo=0
然后再执行下面的命令启动PHP：
phpenmod mcrypt
service php7.0-fpm restart
修改Nginx配置文件
Nginx安装好后默认的web发布路径是/var/www/html，使用下面的命令新建一个Laravel的目录。
cd /var/www/html
uzip laravel-v5.2.15.zip
mv laravel-v5.2.15 laravel
执行完上面的命令后就完成了发布laravel到Nginx服务器，但是现在还不能正常打开网页，需要再Nginx中对Laravel进行配置。先看看Nginx默认的配置文件如下：
sudo gedit /etc/nginx/sites-available/default

# http://wiki.nginx.org/QuickStart
# http://wiki.nginx.org/Configuration
#
# Generally, you will want to move this file somewhere, and start with a clean
# file but keep this around for reference. Or just disable in sites-enabled.

# Default server configuration

server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
# SSL configuration
#
# listen 443 ssl default_server;
# listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;
#
# Note: You should disable gzip for SSL traffic.

#
# Read up on ssl_ciphers to ensure a secure configuration.

**index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;**
**server_name _;**
location / {
# First attempt to serve request as file, then
# as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
**try_files $uri $uri/=404;**
}
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
#
**#location ~ \.php$ {
# include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
#
# # With php7.0-cgi alone:
# fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
# # With php7.0-fpm:
# fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
#}**
# deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root
# concurs with nginx's one
#
#location ~ /\.ht {
# deny all;
#}
}
# Virtual Host configuration for example.com
#
# You can move that to a different file under sites-available/ and symlink that
# to sites-enabled/ to enable it.
#
#server {
# listen 80;
# listen [::]:80;
#
# server_name example.com;
#
# root /var/www/example.com;
# index index.html;
#
# location / {
# try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
# }
#}
修改代码，修改成如下代码：

location / {

try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000

#}
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri /index.php =404;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
# deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root

#
# root /var/www/example.com;
# index index.html;
#
# location / {
# try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
# }
#}
最后再重新启动Nginx服务：
sudo service nginx restart
修改Laravel目录权限
sudo chown -R :www-data /var/www/html/laravel
sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/laravel/storage
生成秘钥
cd /var/www/html/laravel
sudo php artisan key:generate
收获的季节
在浏览器中输入 http://localhost 即可看到一个页面中显示Laravel5，就表示大功告成。恭喜恭喜。
