Installation

We recommend that you use Docker to setup ditto. Instructions for custom builds can be found in the wiki.

1. Install docker (http://www.docker.com/community-edition)
2. Build the docker image: docker build --no-cache=true -t dittoimage .
3. Create a docker container: docker run --name ditto -i -v /var/lib/mysql -t -p 8080:80 dittoimage /bin/bash. This should take you inside the docker container.
4. Change the password for the mysql root user:
   • a. Log in to MySQL: mysql
   • b. SET PASSWORD FOR root = newPassword
   • c. Exit MySQL: exit
   • d. Change the ditto configuration file: cd /home/ditto/resources/ Edit line 3 of the config.ini file with your new password.
5. Quit the initial docker session: exit

Usage

1. Start an existing container to get persistent database data (docker start -i ditto)
2. Head to localhost:8080
3. When finished, quit the docker session from within the bash terminal: exit
