The annotation tool is a web-based software, and for this reason it simply requires a LAMP/MAMP/WAMP software bundle, depending on the operating system. In other terms, it requires: Apache HTTP Server, MySQL and PHP.

Installation

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/PHuSeLab/DANTE.git

Copy or move the DANTE folder to the Apache www folder.
Import the annotationdb.sql file into an existing MySQL instance.

```
mysql -u <username> -p < annotationdb.sql
```
Edit the file config.php according to the environment. (For more details, see section configuration).
Open the browser to the page http://localhost/login.php or wherever you installed DANTE.
Login with default credentials admin:admin.
Follow the configuration instructions and change the default password!

Configuration

The configuration file contained in config.php is very simple and permits to configure some basics parameters, such as:

db_host hostname of the MySQL database (default: localhost).
db_name database name to use, where the annotationdb.sql file is imported (default: annotationdb).
db_user MySQL database username.
db_pass MySQL database password.
anno_rate annotation recording frequency. DANTE will record a value every 1/anno_rate seconds (default: '25').
