LOCAL INSTALLATION
|
| 40 |
-------------------
|
| 41 |
By default, the SIMILE Timeline (and Ajax) libraries can be used from the SIMILE server.
|
| 42 |
But if you want to install them locally you can follow these steps:
|
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
1. Follow general instructions step 1 and 2.
|
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
2. Optain the libraries of SIMILE Timeline 2.3.0 and SIMILE Ajax 2.0-on-static-simile.
|
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
* You can check them out via Subversion from the SIMILE servers:
|
| 49 |
svn export http://simile-widgets.googlecode.com/svn/timeline/tags/2.3.0/src/webapp/api timeline_js
|
| 50 |
svn export http://simile-widgets.googlecode.com/svn/ajax/tags/2.0-on-static-simile/src/webapp/api timeline_ajax
|
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
* Or you can download them from:
|
| 53 |
// TODO: Provide a download loaction for prepackaged libraries
|
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
3. Place the two libraries into a new sites/all/libraries/simile_timeline directory.
|
| 56 |
Note: timeline libraries have to be inside the folder: timeline_js
|
| 57 |
ajax libraries have to be inside the folder: timeline_ajax
|
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
4. Check at js/local.js that the two paths really point to the existing file and directory.
|
| 60 |
Modify these if necessary.
|
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
5. Go to administer >> settings >> timeline and activate local use. Check error messages on this page to
|
| 63 |
be sure that everything is going to be included properly.
