Hey gang, I believe the good people at google were wanting to hack on plugin registry but were unsure how to set it up. Here are some instructions to get this ole bucket of bolts going:
How to get plugin registry going locally ---------------------------------------- 1) Install couchdb: http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Installation Follow instructions in the link above for your platform. 1.b) Start up couchdb: sudo couchdb Should launch on http://127.0.0.1:5984/ by default 1.c) Set up admin on couchdb: http://guide.couchdb.org/draft/security.html 1.d) Check out Futon panel for couchdb: Go to http://127.0.0.1:5984/_utils/ 1.e) Sign in as admin: Click on the 'Login' link in the bottom right (kinda hard to find) and use credentials set in step 1.c 1.f) Turn secure_rewrites to false: Go to Tools/Configuration Search for secure_rewrites under the section httpd Make sure secure_rewrites is set to false 2) install couchapp sudo npm install couchapp -g 3) Clone npmjs.org: https://github.com/imhotep/npmjs.org Follow the "Installing" part of the readme, but don't synch from the npm registry. 3.b) Replicate from cordova registry Haven't actually gotten this step to work atm - getting weird error: curl -X POST -H "Content-Type:application/json" \ http://127.0.0.1:5984/_replicate -d \ '{"source":"http://registry.cordova.io/";, "target":"registry"}' Or use Futon panel: Click on Tools/Replicator and use UI 3.c) Launch the registry locally: cd npmjs.org couchapp serve registry/app.js http://127.0.0.1:5984/registry -d www/attachments/ 4) Use plugin-registry to interact with registry locally: https://github.com/imhotep/plugman-registry See https://github.com/imhotep/plugman-registry/blob/master/index.jsvariable local_registry to make sure it's pointing in the right place I haven't gotten the replication step from registry.cordova.io to work just yet, but I figured I'd put up what I have so far so at least people can choose to get started. I'll post an update when I figured out what's going on (it might be just me who's erroring out). Anywho, I hope that helps! -- Timothy Kim
