* The startup script (evennia.py) will now take your PYTHONPATH environmental variable into account when starting. This may resolve potential issues with Twisted on Windows with certain combinations of Python. * The INSTALL file still referred to startup.bat, which is now gone in favor of evennia.py. Thanks Ari!

The most detailed and up-to-date instructions can always be found at
|
|
http://groups.google.com/group/evennia/web/getting-started?hl=en
|
|
It is recommended that you refer to there. The instructions below
|
|
should be fine, but are terse and may be slightly out of date.
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
* Python 2.5 strongly recommended, although 2.3 or 2.4 may work just fine.
|
|
* Twisted -- http://twistedmatrix.com/
|
|
* PySqlite2 (If you're using the default SQLite driver)
|
|
* Django (Latest trunk from Subversion recommended)
|
|
* Optional: Apache2 or equivalent webserver with a Python interpreter
|
|
module. Required for web interface.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
At this point in time, the codebase is changing so rapidly that writing
|
|
installation instructions is pretty much pointless. When we get to that stage
|
|
in development, we'll make sure to update this. But for the really determined
|
|
(or stubborn), here's a rough outline:
|
|
|
|
* Install Django.
|
|
* Get a copy of the Evennia source.
|
|
* Optional: Set up your apache2.conf to point mod-python to the settings.py
|
|
file if you want the web features.
|
|
* Change to the evennia/game directory and run something like:
|
|
python manage.py
|
|
This will create a settings.py file. You may override any of the default
|
|
values in src/config_defaults.py by pasting them into settings.py and
|
|
changing the values.
|
|
* If you want to use anything other than the default SQLite setup, copy and
|
|
modify the DATABASE_* variables from src/config_defaults.py.
|
|
* Run 'python manage.py syncdb'
|
|
* Run 'python evennia.py start'. This will start the MU* server on port 4000
|
|
by default. You may change this via the web interface or by editing the
|
|
config table in SQL.
|
|
* Login with the email address and password you provided to the syncdb script.
