Thanks for checking out OpenMicroBlogger, we have made a lot of progress in the past 2 weeks and we now have a complete implementation of the official http://openmicroblogging.org protocol.
Known issues:
- some broadcasts to identi.ca are dropped due an Invalid OAuth signature error
- see the bug reports for the complete list
Requirements:
- MySQL or PostgreSQL
- PHP4 or PHP5
DOWNLOAD LINKS:
Installation steps:
- edit the file app/config/config.yml
- change the development database settings to your MySQL or PostgreSQL (adapter name can be "mysql" or "postgresql")
- change the e-mail settings: email_from (From address) and email_name (Name of sender) at the very least
- save your changes to config.yml
- create a /cache folder with 600 or 777 permissions
- point your browser to the URL where OpenMicroBlogger is installed on your Web server, and the database tables will be created
- register with your e-mail address or an OpenID to become the site administrator (the first registered person is in the "administrators" group, subsequent registrees are in the "members" group)
- that's it! now you have a site where registered people can subscribe to people on remote sites (identi.ca, army.twit.tv) and post notices to them as well
notes
- by default, file uploads are saved as BLOBs in the database. this can be a security advantage for sites uploading small files
- there are 2 more upload modes: Amazon S3 and /uploads
- to use the /uploads folder, open app/config/config.yml and change the "collection_cache" location for "posts" from cache to uploads
- for uploads, you will need 2 folders: /cache and /uploads, with 600 or 777 permissions
- to change to Amazon S3 edit app/config/config.yml and set the collection_cache location for posts to aws
- also, in config.yml set your awsBucket, Key and Secret options
