Tasti - a social bookmarking web application written in PHP Tasti is a social bookmarking web application written PHP, which uses a PostgreSQL database backend. It was conceived following the aftermath of Yahoo's "Delicious Sunsetting" fiasco, when I decided that I could no longer trust any third party to store my bookmarks. I'm developing Tasti in my (limited) free time, however, I intend to use it as my primary bookmarking tool. Tasti supports multiple users, who can share their bookmarks with each other. REQUIREMENTS ------------- * An Apache web server (tested with httpd-2.2.17 & 2.4.25). It might very well work with other web servers, however that is untested. * PHP support (including the PostgreSQL database module). Tested with php-5.3.5, however any php-5.x release should work * A functional PostgreSQL database installation. Tested with PostgreSQL-8.4.6 & 9.4.12, however any 8.x or 9.x release should work. Tasti is completely untested with any other RDMS (this includes MySQL). If it works with any other SQL database, that would be a complete accident. INSTALLATION ------------- 0) Untar the tasti tarball somewhere under your Apache document root. The following example assumes that you'll be placing tasti in /var/www/html/tasti. Thus, if your domain name is 'example.com', you would access tasti in your web browser by going to http://example.com/tasti : # cd /var/www/html # tar xzvf tasti-1.0.tgz 1) Create a new database for tasti, and optionally a new database user which will be used to connect to the new database. The following example commands assume that you will create a new database user named 'tasti' and a new database, also named 'tasti': $ createuser tasti # this step is optional if you already have a separate user available $ createdb tasti 2) Setup the database schema by running the included tasti.sql file with psql. The following example continues the example from the previous step, by using the 'tasti' database user and 'tasti' database name: $ psql -U tasti -d tasti -f tasti.sql psql:tasti.sql:1: NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "users_id_seq" for serial column "users.id" psql:tasti.sql:1: NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / UNIQUE will create implicit index "users_username_key" for table "users" CREATE TABLE CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX psql:tasti.sql:9: NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "bmarks_id_seq" for serial column "bmarks.id" CREATE TABLE CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX psql:tasti.sql:20: NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "tags_id_seq" for serial column "tags.id" CREATE TABLE CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX CREATE INDEX 3) If everything went as expected in the previous steps, you should edit tasti_config.php to fill in all the variables as appropriate for your installation. 4) You should now be ready to access tasti in your web browser by pointing it to http://example.com/tasti Assuming that you are able to Register a new user successfully, you should delete tasti.sql .
