Kansha is a web application to manage and share collaborative pinboards.

Kansha works with Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer 9 and above, Safari 7 and above.

You can install stackless python 2.7 from there: http://www.stackless.com/wiki/Download

Then, we recommend using a virtual environment for deploying Kansha: https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/

Finally, in your activated virtual environment, type:

easy_install --find-links http://www.nagare.org/snapshots/ kansha

To get quickly up and running, let's use the built-in web server, database and search engine with the default configuration.

1. First initialize the database (first run only):

   nagare-admin create-db kansha

2. Build the search indexes (can be repeated anytime):

   nagare-admin create-index kansha

3. Launch:

   nagare-admin serve kansha

Now kansha is listening. Just point your browser to http://localhost:8080 and enjoy!

The built-in server, database and search engine are very convenient for testing, but they are not recommended for production setups.

Fortunately, you can run Kansha with:

• any database supported by SQLAlchemy (complete list at http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_0_9/dialects/index.html);
• behind any webserver which supports Fast CGI (FCGI);
• with ElasticSearch as search engine.

See the doc/ folder in the source for detailled documentation about configuration and deployment on production servers.
