*Since this README.md uses symlinks developers will need to be on nix/linux platforms -- FRAPI performs well on Windows, however joining the two repos together might prove to be a bitch -- unless you can magically make decent symlinks on windows :D
First of all, install FRAPI (Follow the instructions on : http://wiki.github.com/frapi/frapi/getting-started )
Then in another directory (Let's call it SPAZ_API_PATH) checkout the spaz-api repo (http://wiki.github.com/davidcoallier/spaz-api) in another directory -- hint: This is where you'll be doing the Spaz API PHP Development)
Once this is done, go to the FRAPI_PATH (Assuming you've followed the steps to installing FRAPI, you know what a FRAPI_PATH is) and "cd" into:
cd FRAPI_PATH/src/frapi/custom
Then remove all that's there
rm -rf *
And now symlink all your SPAZ_API_PATH custom files into this directory like such
ln -s SPAZ_API_PATH/custom/* FRAPI_PATH/src/frapi/custom
Restart apache and go to your "admin.frapi" page. You will see the actions and modules that the SpazAPI has to offer.
You can now start hacking and testing your actions (Which code is located into SPAZ_API_PATH/custom -- The actions (controllers) are in SPAZ_API_PATH/custom/Action)
If you are seeing some file-access errors on the administration panel, just make sure your SPAZ_API_PATH/custom is writeable by the web user
The SpazAPI uses CouchDB and should you decide to develop features that use CouchDB, you can ask davidc_ to give you access to the developer's CouchDB database provided by Couchio (This way you won't have to install erlang and setup your own couch :))
For rate limiting, FRAPI uses memcache on localhost. You may want to setup memcache and redis (As future versions will be using Redis
