cookingwithgas

version 1.0.1

cookingwithgas is a web-based recipe management system. It uses JQuery Mobile to generate a UI that is designed for mobile devices like Android phones and iPhones.

Features

arbitrary tagging system so that you can organize and browse your recipes in a variety of different ways.
search by title, tag, etc.
Import and export from other systems using XML
Generate PDF recipe cards (4"x6" index cards)
Share recipes via e-mail (also sends the recipient a PDF copy for convenient printing)
reasonably sophisticated user account management, including the concept of "account groups". Within an account group, all users have read/write access to the recipes. Outside the account group, users cannot see the recipes at all. So you could host this and let different unrelated users manage their recipes independently.

Requirements

php 5 (tested with php 5.2 and 5.4, but I think it should work with other point releases of php 5)
ZendFramework 1.11 or above (it may work with earlier versions, but no guarantees); if you're using a hosting provider, make sure you know how to access ZF from your PHP code; I know for my hosting provider, it's fairly complicated -- lots of apache and php config files to muck with.
MySQL 5
JQuery Mobile (currently at version 1 alpha 4)

Installing

unpack the tarball
create a new database in MySQL
use cookingwithgas.ddl to build the schema
edit application/configs/application.ini; be sure to leave open_registration = 1 for now.
go to the main page of the application (probably something like http://example.com/cookingwithgas/public/)
register for an account; confirm the account via the confirmation e-mail
you can now edit application.ini and set open_registration to 0 (unless you want to run a public server)
you should now be able to log in and manage recipes
if you want to import recipes, you'll need them to be in this XML format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<recipes>
  <recipe>
    <title>TITLE</title>
    <ingredients>INGREDIENTS
WITH
LINE
BREAKS</ingredients>
    <directions>DIRECTIONS
WITH LINE BREAKS BETWEEN PARAGRAPHS.

LIKE THIS.</directions>
    <yield>YIELD (free text)</yield>
    <source>SOURCE (free text)</source>
    <tags>
      <tag>TAG1</tag>
      <tag>TAG2</tag>
        ...
      <tag>TAGn</tag>
    </tags>
  </recipe>
</recipes>
