Installation

sfyn edited this page Mar 20, 2012 · 1 revision

For now installation is largely manual.

First you will need to install etherpad-lite, or have the server url and apikey of an existing etherpad-lite instance.

Lets assume if you are looking at this you already know how to install Django and start new Django projects.

You will need to clone this repo into your Django project, and add etherpadlite to the INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py.

Finally you will need to add lines to your urls.py file. You can either add this line:

 url(r'^', include('etherpadlite.urls')),

Or, if you are already serving your home page via a different app, these lines:

 url(r'^etherpad', include('etherpadlite.urls')),
 url(r'^accounts/profile/$', include('etherpadlite.urls')),
 url(r'^logout$', include('etherpadlite.urls')),

Once you have done this, you will need to, at minimum, create a group and add a first etherpad-lite server via the django admin interface in order to take full advantage of this modules functionality:

  1. Add a group: admin/auth/group/add/
  2. Add an etherpad server: admin/etherpadlite/padserver/add/
  3. Add an etherpad group corresponding to the auth group: admin/etherpadlite/padgroup/add/

At this point, any users you add to the django project who are members of an etherpad enabled group will be able to take full advantage of the modules features.
