Get the source

It's time to download Diaspora! As your diaspora user run:

cd ~
git clone -b master git://github.com/diaspora/diaspora.git
cd diaspora

Don't miss the cd diaspora, all coming commands expect to be run from that directory!

Configuration

Copy files

cp config/database.yml.example config/database.yml
cp config/diaspora.yml.example config/diaspora.yml

{{#ifeq |production|User:MrZYX/WIP:Installation/Configuration|}} {{#ifeq |production|User:MrZYX/WIP:Installation/Configuration|}}

Bundle

It's time to install the Ruby libraries required by Diaspora:

{{#var:env_string}}bundle install --without heroku test {{#ifeq {{#var:mode}}|development||development}}

This takes quite a while. You should get a green success message when it's finished, if that's no the case you should seek for help on the mailing list or the IRC channel.

Database setup

Double check your config/database.yml looks right and run:

{{#var:env_string}}bundle exec rake db:create db:schema:load

{{#ifeq |production|User:MrZYX/WIP:Installation/Assets|}}

Start Diaspora
