brainspell

The BIDS collaborative fork of the brainspell project. Useful innovations will be merged upstream into @r03ert0's repo (see the "forked from" link at the top of our GitHub page).

The application has been completely dockerized. If you have a properly configured docker-compose installation, you should be able to execute docker-compose up from the docker directory, and then visit the application on port 8000 in your web browser (note that Dav has experienced some trouble with Chrome, so probably use another browser for now).

If you don't have docker and docker-compose, you will need to install these. Please refer to the install instructions for operating system.

If you are on Windows and OSX you will need a host (most likely you will be using Docker Machine), in that case don't forget that you'll need to initialize your docker host with the following commands (or the equivalent) prior to

running docker-compose up:

docker-machine start
eval $(docker-machine env)

You will also be able to get the ip address of your docker host with docker-machine ip.

After docker-compose up (or sudo docker-compose if you are not running in a super user shell) the shell does not complete and messages will be showing in the terminal. Alternatively you can run docker-compose up -d to have it run in the background. CTR-C or run docker-compose stop to stop the containters.

On a linux install, the brainspell search did not work until you the LuceneIndex directory was made writable by all, in the brainspell/site/php directory run: chmod a+w LuceneIndex/* or sudo chmod a+w LuceneIndex/*
