Install and Configure
You can download PubwichFork versions as archive (recent version 2.1) and unpack all files to your server; or clone it via Git:
$ git clone git://github.com/haschek/PubwichFork.git pubwichfork
$ cd pubwichfork
You have to change permissions for the cache folder, it must be writeable for the server user scope. You could grant read/write access to all (anonymous) users but it is recommended to grant this rights only to your user and the user group of your www user (for the web server). This example should work under Ubuntu:
$ sudo chown youruser:www-data usr/cache/
$ sudo chmod 6770 usr/cache/
Copy the config file usr/configuration/config.sample.php to usr/configuration/config.php and edit it by following instructions in the the config file.
cp usr/configuration/config.sample.php usr/configuration/config.php
gedit usr/configuration/config.php
It is recommended to configure at least:
// General site informations
define('PUBWICH_URL', 'http://localhost/pubwich/');
define('PUBWICH_THEME', 'default');
define('PUBWICH_TITLE', 'My Pubwich-powered site');
// Localisation
date_default_timezone_set( 'Europe/Berlin' );
define('PUBWICH_LANG', 'de_DE'); // leave to '' to keep Pubwich in english
setlocale( LC_ALL, 'de_DE.UTF8' ); // for date methods
// Performance - Cache and Timeouts
define( 'CACHE_LOCATION', dirname(__FILE__) . '/../cache/' );
define( 'CACHE_LIMIT', 60 * 60 ); // 60 minutes
define( 'OUTPUT_CACHE_LIMIT', 30 * 60 ); // 30 minutes
You need to configure all web service aggregations in config.php too. Simply fill the blank spaces with your informations (API keys, usernames, site’s URL, etc.) and modify the arguments passed to Pubwich::setServices(). Some basic examples are included in the configuration file. For an extended documentation please see Web Service description.
Usually you should be finished here, just test it by calling the URL of your PubwichFork instance in your browser, e.g. if you installed it to /var/www/mypubwichfork it should be accessable via http://localhost/mypubwichfork.
If you are running into problems, then write a message to @haschek or add a bug report to the issue tracker. Thank you!
