53 Download ``phorkie-0.6.1.phar`` and put it in your web server's document root
56 No further setup needed.
58 .. note:: Only valid if your webserver is configured to let
59 PHP handle ``.phar`` files.
61 Unfortunately, no Linux distribution has this activated by default.
63 .. warning:: PHP has some bugs in its .phar handling code (e.g. with FPM).
65 So currently, the ``.phar`` option is considered experimental.
70 1. Unzip the phorkie release file::
72 $ tar xjvf phorkie-0.6.1.tar.bz2
74 2. Create the git directories::
76 $ mkdir -p www/repos/git www/repos/work
77 $ chmod og+w www/repos/git www/repos/work
79 3. Install dependencies_
81 4. Copy ``data/config.php.dist`` to ``data/config.php`` and adjust it
84 $ cp data/config.php.dist data/config.php
85 $ $EDITOR data/config.php
87 Look at ``config.default.php`` for values that you may adjust.
89 5. Set your web server's document root to ``/path/to/phorkie/www/``
90 Alternatively, you can add a symlink to the ``www`` folder into your
91 web server's existing document root tree (being careful to keep
92 main phorkie folder outside the document root for security purposes)
93 and ensure you set the ``baseurl`` config option appropriately. You
94 must also set the ``RewriteBase`` in the ``.htaccess`` file or adjust
95 the nginx configuration accordingly.
97 6. Open http://yourhost/setup in your web browser to see if everything
100 7. Go to http://yourhost/
102 8. If you like phorkie, send a mail to `cweiske+phorkie@cweiske.de`__

109 phorkie stands on the shoulders of giants.
111 It requires the following programs to be installed
114 - Git v1.7.5 or later
115 - PHP v5.3.0 or later
116 - PEAR v1.9.2 or later
120 $ pear install versioncontrol_git-alpha
121 $ pear install services_libravatar-alpha
122 $ pear install http_request2
124 $ pear install date_humandiff-alpha
125 $ pear install openid-alpha
127 $ pear channel-discover pear.twig-project.org
128 $ pear install twig/Twig
130 $ pear channel-discover pear.geshi.org
131 $ pear install geshi/geshi
133 $ pear channel-discover zustellzentrum.cweiske.de
134 $ pear install zz/mime_type_plaindetect-alpha
136 $ pear channel-discover pear.michelf.ca
137 $ pear install michelf/Markdown
139 $ pear channel-discover pear2.php.net
140 $ pear install pear2/pear2_services_linkback-alpha
143 You can use composer to install all dependencies automatically::
147 Note that the ``.phar`` package already contains all dependencies.
154 phorkie makes use of an Elasticsearch__ installation, if you have one.
156 It is used to provide search capabilities and the list of recent pastes.
158 Elasticsearch version 2.0 is supported.
160 You have to install the `delete-by-query`__ plugin::
162 $ cd /usr/share/elasticsearch
163 $ bin/plugin install delete-by-query
165 __ http://www.elasticsearch.org/
166 __ https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/2.0/plugins-delete-by-query.html
171 Edit ``config.php``, setting the ``elasticsearch`` property to the HTTP URL
172 of the index, e.g. ::
174 http://localhost:9200/phorkie/
176 You must use a search namespace with Elasticsearch such as ``phorkie/``.
177 Run the index script to import all existing pastes into the index::
179 php scripts/index.php
181 That's all. Open phorkie in your browser, and you'll notice the search box
187 In case something really went wrong and you need to reset the search
188 index, run the following command::
190 $ curl -XDELETE http://localhost:9200/phorkie/
191 {"ok":true,"acknowledged"}
193 Phorkie will automatically re-index everything when ``setupcheck`` is enabled
194 in the configuration file.
196 You may also manually run the reindexing script with::
198 $ php scripts/index.php
205 Make git repositories clonable
206 ==============================
210 By default, the pastes are clonable via ``http`` as long as the ``repos/git/``
211 directory is within the ``www/`` directory.
213 No further setup needed.
218 You may use ``git-daemon`` to provide public ``git://`` clone urls.
219 Install the ``git-daemon-run`` package on Debian/Ubuntu.
221 Make the repositories available by symlinking the paste repository
222 directory (``$GLOBALS['phorkie']['cfg']['repos']`` setting) into
223 ``/var/cache/git``, e.g.::
225 $ ln -s /home/user/www/paste/repos/git /var/cache/git/paste
227 Edit your ``config.php`` and set the ``$GLOBALS['phorkie']['cfg']['git']['public']``
228 setting to ``git://$yourhostname/git/paste/``.
229 The rest will be appended automatically.
232 You're on your own to setup writable repositories.
235 Protect your site with OpenID
236 =============================
237 You have the option of enabling OpenID authentication to help secure your
239 Set the ``$GLOBALS['phorkie']['auth']`` values in the
240 ``data/config.php`` file as desired.
242 There are two different types of security you can apply.
243 First, you can restrict to one of three ``securityLevels``:
245 - completely open (``0``)
246 - protection of write-enabled functions such as add, edit, etc. (``1``)
247 - full site protection (``2``)
249 Additionally, you can restrict your site to ``listedUsersOnly``.
250 You will need to add the individual OpenID urls to the
251 ``$GLOBALS['phorkie']['auth']['users']`` variable.
254 Get information about paste editors
255 ===================================
256 Phorkie stores the user's OpenID or IP address (when not logged in) when
258 It is possible to get this information for each single commit::
260 // IP / OpenID for the latest commit
261 $ git notes --ref=identity show
264 // show IP / OpenID for a given commit
265 $ git notes --ref=identity show 29f82a
269 Notifications via webhooks
270 ==========================
271 Depending on how you use phorkie, it might be nice to notify some other service
272 when pastes are added or updated.
273 Phorkie contains a simply mechanism to post data to a given URL which
274 you can then use as needed.
276 The data are json-encoded POSTed to the URLs contained in the
277 ``$GLOBALS['phorkie']['cfg']['webhooks']`` setting array, with
278 a MIME type of ``application/vnd.phorkie.webhook+json``::
284 'email': 'anonymous@phorkie',
287 'name': 'webhooktest',
288 'url': 'http://example.org/33',
289 'description': 'webhooktest',
292 'email': 'anonymous@phorkie',
297 The event may be ``create``, ``edit`` or ``delete``.
311 Display page for paste
314 ``/[0-9]+/edit/(.+)``
315 Edit a single file of the paste
317 JavaScript code that embeds the whole paste in a HTML page
318 ``/[0-9]+/embed/(.+)``
319 JavaScript code that embeds a single file in a HTML page
321 Display raw file contents
322 ``/[0-9]+/tool/[a-zA-Z]+/(.+)``
323 Run a tool on the given file
324 ``/[0-9]+/rev/[a-z0-9]+``
325 Show specific revision of the paste
329 Show DOAP document for paste
331 Create a fork of the paste
332 ``/search?q=..(&page=[0-9]+)?``
333 Search for term, with optional page
335 List all pastes, with optional page
341 Shows form for new paste
343 Login page for protecting site
345 Check if everything is setup correctly and all dependencies are installed
347 Edit logged-in user information
350 Internal directory layout
351 =========================
356 1/ - work directory for paste #1
357 2/ - work directory for paste #2
359 1.git/ - git repository for paste #1
360 description - Description for the repository
361 2.git/ - git repository for paste #2
