Dependencies

• earwigbot >= 0.1
• flask >= 0.10.1
• flask-mako >= 0.3
• flup >= 1.0.3
• mako >= 0.7.2

Running

• Install all dependencies listed above. You might want to use a virtualenv.

• Create the SQL database defined in schema.sql. Also create the cache and cache_data tables defined by earwigbot-plugins; this can be in the same or a different database.

• Create an earwigbot instance in .earwigbot (run earwigbot .earwigbot). In .earwigbot/config.yml, fill out the connection info for the database(s) above by adding the following to the wiki section:

    _copyviosSQL:
        globals:
            host: <hostname of database defined in schema.sql>
            db:   <name of database>
        cache:
            host: <hostname of database containing cache and cache_data tables>
            db:   <name of database>
  

  If additional arguments are needed by oursql.connect(), like usernames or passwords, they should be added to the globals and cache sections.

• Copy .lighttpd.conf to the relevant location (on Tool Labs, this is in the root of the project’s home directory) and adjust its contents as necessary.

• Run ./build.py to minify JS and CSS files.

• Adjust the hashbang in app.fcgi to point to the correct Python interpreter or virtual environment.

• Start lighttpd (on Tool Labs, webservice start).
