Unmark

An open source, to-do application for bookmarks originally created by Colin Devroe (then called Nilai) and rebuilt from the ground up by Plain.

We offer this source code for Unmark completely free. However, if you'd rather us host it for you, as well as a few features not available through this repository, you can sign up for free to our Unmark hosted service. It is free to try with limitations and just a few dollars per year to unlock all features with no limitations.

Here are some useful links:

• Unmark.it - Sign up for free to the hosted version of Unmark.

• Donate - Help keep Unmark development alive!

Installation

Please read through the installation requirements carefully. We're keeping them up-to-date to, hopefully, minimize the number of installation issues some have had with earlier versions of Unmark. If you still have issues setting up Unmark after following the instructions, we recommend looking through the issues on GitHub to see how others have solved their problems.

Technical requirements

• PHP 5.4 or greater with gettext extension. Need help? Try this.
• mySQL 5.5 or greater
• A webserver with url rewrites enabled

Special Note

At this point Unmark has to be installed on the root of your subdomain. Installation of Unmark in a sub directory is unsupported at this time. Keep tabs on our progress with this issue by monitoring this issue.

Installation Instructions

• Download the latest release or clone the repo.
• Unzip the archive into ~/Sites or your directory of choice
• Copy /application/config/database-sample.php to /application/config/database.php (leave database-sample.php)
• Create a database for Unmark to use in mySQL
• Fill in proper database credentials in /application/config/database.php
• Point your browser to your-unmark-url/setup (note that Unmark will error until /setup has been successfully completed)
• Follow the onscreen instructions to complete setup

Note: Using Nginx rather than Apache? Follow these Nginx configuration instructions.

Upgrading to the latest release

• Download the latest release.
• Replace all files (keeping your local /application/config/database.php intact.)
• Navigate to your-unmark-url/upgrade
• That's it!

Note: You can also run this from the command line using the following command php index.php migrations latest

Enabling or Disabling Registration

Thanks to a feature request by @rpdillon. You can now enable and disable user registration at will by modifying ./application/config/config.php Find the configuration key "plain_enable_registrations" and change it to false if you don't want to allow user registration. Keep in mind there isn't a way to add or delete users, so if you want to add a new user you will need to enable registration again.

Building Unmark locally

We use Grunt to compile our SASS files into CSS and concatenate and compress our JavaScript files for use and a few other small tasks. If you'd like to update your local copy of Unmark do the following...

• Edit SASS in /assets/css
• Edit JavaScript in /assets/js
• When finished, run "grunt" via command line

Note: For additional information check out our Grunt guide on the Unmark wiki.

Staging branch

Generally our staging branch will always be kept up to date with the master branch unless we are testing a feature or release. We use this branch internally to test on our staging server. You can feel free to use this at any time, just note that Unmark may not always work. So we recommend only those that are helping us test Unmark pull this branch.

Just prior to a release we'll merge staging into master and tag the release using GitHub's Releases feature.
