Please use the means listed above to give us any feedback about slate_permutate's functionality. Thanks!

Installation Requirements:

• PHP-enabled httpd (tested with apache, patches for supporting others welcome).

• Access to PHP's CLI interface

• libcURL extension to PHP (for Calvin's crawler and soon others).

• json_encode()/json_decode() functions (as a PEAR addon or with the recent PHP versions).

• PHP libraries - securimage-2.0.2 (optional) for captcha support for the feedback

  form. http://phpcapatcha.org/ , see inc/config.example for details.

Installation:

• Get a copy of slate_permutate. - development version:

  $ hg clone http://protofusion.org/hg/SlatePermutate slate_permutate

  • stable: not yet available.

• copy inc/config.inc.example to inc/config.inc. Read and adjust settings as necessary.

• copy .htaccess.example to .htaccess if you're interested in ``clean urls'' (corresponding to the $clean_urls option in config.inc).

• run admin/rehash.php to populate the cache/ directory with information such as the list and rDNS information for schools in school.d.

• ensure that the webserver has write-access to the saved_schedules/ folder because schedule storage is filesystem-based.
