Shimmie Alpha
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
2008-12-15 00:00:29 +00:00
|
|
|
This code is for people who want to write extensions compatible with the
|
|
|
|
|
next version of shimmie. You can run a production site with it if you're
|
|
|
|
|
feeling brave, but it's not recommended.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If there is a feature here, and not in the stable branch, that's probably
|
|
|
|
|
because the feature doesn't work yet :P

Requirements
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
MySQL 4.1+
|
|
|
|
|
PHP 5.0+
|
|
|
|
|
GD or ImageMagick
|
|
|
|
|

There is no PHP4 support, because it lacks many useful features which make
|
|
|
|
|
shimmie development easier, faster, and less bug prone. PHP4 is officially
|
|
|
|
|
dead, if your host hasn't upgraded to at least 5, I would suggest switching
|
|
|
|
|
hosts. I'll even host galleries for free if you can't get hosting elsewhere
|
|
|
|
|
for whatever reason~

Installation
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
1) Create a blank database
|
|
|
|
|
2) Unzip shimmie into a folder on the web host
|
2007-07-01 16:23:04 +00:00
|
|
|
3) Visit the folder with a web browser
|
2007-04-16 11:58:25 +00:00
|
|
|
4) Enter the location of the database, and choose login details for the first
|
|
|
|
|
admin of the board
|
|
|
|
|
5) Click "install". Hopefully you'll end up at the configuration screen; if
|
|
|
|
|
not, you should be given instructions on how to fix any errors~

Upgrade from 2.1.X

|
Should be automatic, just unzip and copy across config.php, images and thumbs
|
|
|
|
|
folders from the old version. This includes automatically messing with the
|
|
|
|
|
database -- back it up first!

Licence
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
All code is GPL2; ie, if you give shimmie to someone else, you have to give
|
|
|
|
|
them the source (which should be easy, as PHP is an interpreted language...).
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to add customisations to your own site, then those customisations
|
|
|
|
|
belong to you, and you can do what you want with them.
