This project is (initially) generated by eliom-distillery as the basic
project graffiti.
The following files in this directory have been generated by eliom-distillery:
-
graffiti.eliom This is your initial source file.
-
static/ The content of this folder is statically served. Put your CSS or additional JavaScript files here
-
Makefile.options Configure your project here
-
graffiti.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.
-
local/ This directory is the target of the temporary installation of your application, to test locally before doing a system-wide installation in /. Do not put anything manually here.
Here's some help on how to work with this basic distillery 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
