PhoenixMachina

Installing PhoenixMachina on Linux

You'll first need to have MySQL installed on your computer and added the phoenixmachina.sql file to your database. We have a script to install everything else at once that you can find here : https://github.com/PhoenixMachina/launcher-linux

Installing PhoenixMachina on OSX

Sorry, we don't like OSX. Go away.

Installing PhoenixMachina on Windows

Julia dependencies

Just run install.jl to download all necessary packages.

You also need our ORM : Pkg.clone("https://github.com/PhoenixMachina/SapphireORM") and our Template Engine : Pkg.clone("https://github.com/PhoenixMachina/Tlaloc") You might have a problem with "MySQL library not found error". The error comes from above, look here to find the answer you're looking for : https://github.com/JuliaDB/MySQL.jl

Database

You need to have MySQL installed on your computer as well as a driver, create a database phoenixmachina and import the file phoenixmachina.sql which contains the tables you'll need.

Settings

There are two files you need to create: config.jl in the main folder, and tlaloc.ini in the include folder. Here are their contents, which you need to change depending on your environment: config.jl :

#REQUIRED

#Home URLS
HOME_CONTROLLER = "HomeController.jl"
HOME_URL = "/path/to/PhoenixMachina/"

DB_DSN = "MySQL_database"
DB_USER = ""
DB_PASSWORD = ""

#OPTIONAL
Logging.configure(output=open("/path/to/project/logfile.log", "a"))

tlaloc.ini

viewPath=/path/to/PhoenixMachina/views/
templatePath=/path/to/PhoenixMachina/templates/
resourcePath=/path/to/PhoenixMachina/resources/

Start

Launch start_server.jl. You should see "Listening on 0.0.0.0:8000..."

You then just need to open your browser and type localhost:8000/PhoenixMachina/ (the slash at the end is currently necessary)
