This is the repository component of the VOER Platform, which provides services for storing/getting/searching materials.

Before starting with this approach, ensure that you have Vagrant installed.

1. Download all files inside vp.repo/vagrant/ directory to a new local directory (e.g. 'vpr')

2. Initialize and run Vagrant inside the local directory

   vagrant up
   

3. After huge number of steps running, the site would be ready to serve at address

   http://127.0.0.1:8080
   

1. Pre-requisites

   Python 2.5 to 2.7
   MySQL or PostgreSQL
   
   

2. Install some additional packages (these below commands are for Debian environment with MariaDB)

   apt-get install python-virtualenv python-dev mariadbserver libmariadbclient-dev git
   

3. Create database

   Name: vpr
   User: vpr
   Password: vpr
   

4. Create & activate separate environment

   virtualenv vpr
   cd vpr
   source vpr/activate
   

5. Clone the VPR repository from GitHub, using git

   git clone git://github.com/voer-platform/vp.repo.git
   

6. Go to the vp.repo/ directory, and run the script install.sh

   cd vp.repo/
   bash ./install.sh
   

7. Configure the database running with component, inside:

   vp.repo/vpr/vpr/settings/dev.py    # Development instance
   vp.repo/vpr/vpr/settings/prod.py   # Production instance
   

8. Initialize DB structure

   python ./manage.py syncdb
   

9. Running Component

   python ./manage.py runserver
