Installation

For normal users

Standalone downloadable binary can be downloaded at https://github.com/chaitin/strapdown-zeta/releases

For hackers

You can hack this project any way you want. Please follow the following build instructions to get started.

Build

build strapdown.min.js and strapdown.min.css

$ npm install
$ grunt

The generated file would be build/strapdown.min.js and build/strapdown.min.css

Build strapdown server

The server can be built into a single standalone binary.

The server is written using go programming language.

First, you need to install go dependency libraries.

$ make -C server deps

After that, just run make in server directory.

$ cd server
$ make

or just do following in project root directory, both will work!

$ make -C server all

examples here:

$ mkdir -p /home/wiki
$ strapdown-server -dir /home/wiki -init -addr 127.0.0.1:8080

Note

The server relies on /etc/mime.types to correctly detect file mime types. So make sure /etc/mime.types exists.

for Mac OSX users, the file is builtin.

For Archlinux users, install mime-types

$ pacman -S mime-types

For other Linux distributions, install apache server will also help.
