MyHonors

We use Firebase to handle real-time data from the backend and AngularJS--an amazing Javascript framework from Google--to power the frontend. Our HTML & CSS code is based on Twitter Bootstrap.

Installation

All necessary files are already included in the repository, so you can get started with just a few steps. Note that we are assuming you use LDAP for authentication and already have an account with Firebase.

  1. Download or clone the MyHonors repository and upload the files to your webserver.
  2. Modify auth/auth.php and define the 4 PHP constants that are left undefined in the file.
  3. Rename config.sample.php to config.php. Edit the file with the appropriate Firebase info.
  4. If you haven't already, install LDAP support for your server (e.g. apt-get install php5-ldap).
  5. That's it! Login with your LDAP username/password and have fun.
