Eliom Multimedia Application

A web application which provides basic functions for HTML5 multimedia. It also presents a possible solution to manipulation of multimedia using Eliom framework.

Dependencies

Eliom framework release 3.0 or above (installation from package manager)
Oclosure Library (installation from source is preferred)

Instructions

This project is (initially) generated by eliom-destillery as the basic project "subtitle".

Generally, you can compile it and run ocsigenserver on it by

$ make test.byte (or test.opt)

See below for other useful targets for make.

Howto

After running the instruction above, you will be able to see the default video and the subtitle editor below it.

To view the immediate effect of the editor, please enter the text into the textbox and click the save button.

Generated files

The following files in this directory have been generated by eliom-destillery:

subtitle.eliom This is your initial source file. All Eliom files (*.eliom, *.eliomi) in this directory are automatically considered. To add a .ml/.mli file to your project, append it to the variable SERVER_FILES or CLIENT_FILES.
static/ The content of this folder is statically served. Put your CSS or additional JavaScript files here!
Makefile.options Configure your project here!
subtitle.conf.in This file is a template for the configuration file for ocsigenserver. You will rarely have to edit itself - it takes its variables from the Makefile.options. This way, the installation rules and the configuration files are synchronized with respect to the different folders.
Makefile This contains all rules necessary to build, test, and run your Eliom application. You better don't touch it ;) See below for the relevant targets.
README Not completely describable here.

Makefile targets

Here's some help on how to work with this basic destillery project:

Test your application by compiling it and running ocsigenserver locally
```
$ make test.byte (or test.opt)
```
Compile it only
```
$ make all (or byte or opt)
```

Deploy your project on your system

$ sudo make install (or install.byte or install.opt)

Run the server on the deployed project
```
$ sudo make run.byte (or run.opt)
```
If WWWUSER in the Makefile.options is you, you don't need the `sudo'. If Eliom isn't installed globally, however, you need to re-export some environment variables to make this work:
```
$ sudo PATH=$PATH OCAMLPATH=$OCAMLPATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH make run.byte/run.opt
```
If you need a findlib package in your project, add it to the variables SERVER_PACKAGES and/or CLIENT_PACKAGES. The configuration file will be automatically updated.

Remarks

Thanks to Mr. Chua Jie Sheng for his guidance and suggestions on this project.
