Echo README

Please note that this is unmaintained and badly written! It's been rewritten using node, see takkaria/echojs.

To set this up you will need to:

Dependencies

PHP 5.4 PHP's SQLite module

Installation

Initialise the databases. Create the databases from SQL:

mkdir db
sqlite3 db/events.sqlite < sql-events.txt
sqlite3 db/feeds.sqlite < sql-feeds.txt

Make sure they are writable by the web server. This might mean doing something like:

chgrp -R www-data db
chmod -R g+w db

Move the right files into place.

The following need to be in a web-accessible folder: * css * images * js * index.php

The following do not: * lib * feedfetch.php * templates

Set up the config file. An initial config file is in the package. It should be called 'echo.ini'.

Set up a temp directory for F3:

mkdir temp
chgrp -R www-data temp
chmod -R g+w temp

Set up web rewrite rules.

Install the Node modules:

• htmlstrip-native
• sequelize
• sequelize-sqlite (?)
• sqlite3
• ical
• feedparser
• request

To develop, you will need sass, to build CSS files from the source SCSS files.
