-INSTALLATION: THE QUICK AND EASY WAY
-
-
-1. Download
-
- http://schumann.cx/ircg/install_ircg.sh
-
-2. Open the script in your favorite editor and set up the three
- variables for installation prefix, PHP 4 source directory and
- Operating System. Please refer to the comments inside the script.
-
-3. Run
-
- chmod +x install_ircg.sh
- ./install_ircg.sh
-
- If you are installing on a common system (e.g. Linux or FreeBSD), the
- process should finish without any problem.
-
- Note 1: Currently, the shipped patches are in the unified diff
- format. Some esoteric patch tools cannot handle that format. On
- those systems, installing GNU patch is recommended.
-
- ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/patch/
-
- Note 2: The State Threads build system is quite simple. On some
- esoteric systems, State Threads handle only the vendor compiler,
- not GCC. In that case, you might need to fiddle with the build
- system yourself.. Good luck.
-
-
-
-
-THE LONG AND BORING WAY
-
-Unless there is a specific reason (like you are bored or generally
-have too much time on your hands), you are advised to use the
-installation script as outlined above.
-
-
-1. Install SGI's State Threads Library
-
- http://state-threads.sourceforge.net/
-
- (Just copy st.h to /usr/include and libst.* to /usr/lib)
-
-2. Install the event-based IRC Gateway Library
-
- http://schumann.cx/ircg/
-
-3. Download and extract thttpd 2.21b
-
- http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/thttpd-2.21b.tar.gz
-
-4. Install PHP into thttpd
-
- $ ./configure [..] \
- --with-thttpd=../thttpd-2.xx \
- --with-ircg=/prefix/of/ircg
-
- $ make install
-
-5. Patch thttpd to add State Thread support
-
- $ cd thttpd-2.xx
- $ patch -p1 < ../IRCG-x.x/patch_thttpd
-
- IMPORTANT: The process will throw a SIGSEGV or SIGBUS if you
- forget to apply this patch.
-
-6. Configure and install thttpd
-
-
-
-RECOMMENDATIONS
-
-
-You will also need some kind of IRC server. You can use a public server,
-but that makes testing usually slow.
-
-Use the Undernet IRC server (it's fast, it scales, and it has
-lots of hidden options to tune it):
-
- http://coder-com.undernet.org/
-
-A highly customizable PHP framework can be found here:
-
- http://schumann.cx/ircg/ircg-php-scripts.tar.gz
-
-Start by reading index.php.
