These instructions are written for Debian 8.0.

Before installing passphport, you need to install the following packages with the command:

$ sudo apt-get install git python- docopt python3-docopt python3-flask python3-flask-sqlalchemy python-flask-migrate python-migrate curl

Then enter the following command:

$ git clone https://github.com/LibrIT/passhport.git

and, after going in the folder passhport, launch the script db_create.py:

$ ./db_create.py

Now you can start the server using the command:

$ ./passhportd

I'm not sure that Git neither Curl are usefull. Raphux will create the wiki page, I guess he can try wihtout this dependencies (downloading the zip from the github interface)

[elg]

Git and Curl are used to develop/test... Means that maybe we need a "Development environment installation" doc page too ? or maybe a simple paragraph.

Last comment, on Debian 7, the dependencies aren't packaged... So maybe add a simple line like:
"For unsupported distribution, you can try to use pip to install the dependencies". PiP works well on debian 7 for example.

After testing, if you use Python 2.7, you need to install python-docopt instead of python3-docopt (which is for Python 3).

[elg]

So we need to create a documentation for Debian 8, using packages about python 2.7 with remarks for:

• python3 (saying that it python3-XXX packages have to be installed)
• Debian 7 (saying that pip has to be used)

[VeryTastyTomato]

The package python-requests is also needed.

[elg]

I'll takeover this one.

For testing we use the module pytest, installed with the following packages:

$ sudo apt-get install python-pytest python3-pytest

[elg]

Doc wiki is simply initiated... Still the issue should be pushed in next iteration.

[VeryTastyTomato]

In fact, we use the module nosetests to do unit tests, so the package needed is:

sudo apt-get install python-nose

[VeryTastyTomato]

The following command needs to be launched as well:

pip install future

With docs.passhport.org that contains chapters for installation under Debian and CentOS, this issu can be closed.
