Story Card

Story-card is an easy to use, highly customisable, interactive, online Story Card dashboard. By default story-card comes with drivers ready to use with MySQL, flatfile & sharepoint setups, although you can write your own to get story-card working with any datastore you like.

You can view a live demo here: http://userbag.co.uk/demo/storycard

Story-card uses the Flight PHP micro-framework and jQuery for all the heavy(ish) lifting. By default a "singleuser" authentication driver is in use, although an LDAP driver is also included.

Flat file Installation

  1. Place the Story-Card files on a PHP enabled webserver.

  2. Copy xhr/config/config.sample.php to xhr/config/config.php.

  3. Point your web browser at Story-Card and start using it. (We recommend you change the username & password in the config file first though!)

MySQL Installation

  1. Place the Story-Card files on a PHP enabled webserver.

  2. Copy xhr/config/config.sample.php to xhr/config/config.php.

  3. In the config set datastore to mysql and uncomment and fill in the MySQL config items.

  4. Point your web browser at Story-Card and start using it! (We recommend you change the username & password in the config file first though!)

SharePoint Installation

  1. Place the Story-Card files on a PHP enabled webserver.

  2. Copy xhr/config/config.sample.php to xhr/config/config.php and edit following the prompts.

  3. Drop a WDSL file for the Sharepoint lists to poll for cards - this can normally be obtained by visiting sharepoint.url/subsite/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx?WSDL. This location should be reflected in the xhr/config/config.php file in the sharepoint.wsdl field.

  4. Update the column_mappings in the config so the field names map to those used in your SharePoint list. (If the list doesn't exist you will need to create it manually)

  5. Point a web server to the directory and visit this with your browser.

Trouble shooting

Story-Card is constantly updates the cards

This can be caused if the writable drictory specified in config is not writable. Additionally story-card will automatically refresh its cards based on the interval specified in the config, if you would like it to refresh less often, simply update this value.

Story-Card fails in my browser

Story-card is still in early alpha so has only been tested in Chrome & firefox. We will hopefully fix support for other browsers as the product matures.
