With this guide, using OSX, you could install Locker for yourself at this very early stage to try it out.
Git is used to get Locker. It's also used to contribute to Locker. Git is great. Go get git.
If you have Homebrew installed, you can just do:
brew install git
Install the latest Git for OS X.
Go to the Apple Store, search for "Xcode", download. This is needed for compiling Node.js. It now costs $5.00, even though it was free before the App Store.... >:( ... But lo and behold, if you get Lion first you will get Xcode 4.1 for free :)
You have two options. (zencuke: Nov 26, 2011: At the root page of nodejs.org see "node-v0.6.3.pkg Macintosh installer" for a simpler option. Warning: I haven't tested whether it works for locker. If I ever work through the multiple layers of OSX Lion locker install problems I will update this note. Update: This version of node does NOT work with Locker. Locker currently {as of Nov 27} requires node between 0.4.5-0.4.9. If you install using brew make sure it gives you an acceptable version. I finally went to the 'Manual tarball' option because it allowed me to choose the version. Do not "grab the latest version" as suggested below.)
If you have Homebrew installed, you can just do:
brew install node
Grab the latest tar.gz; e.g.:
curl -o node.tgz http://nodejs.org/dist/node-v0.4.7.tar.gz
cd node-v0.4.7/
So I read README.md. Looks like the usual drill of ./configure; make; make install.
./configure
make
Some warnings about directory not found for option '-Lusr/local/lib'. Hopefully that won't stop me.
Going to try make test to test to see if it works as the node guys expect node to.
make test
Crap, one of the test failed... "simple/test-http-dns-fail". Hope that's not critical for Locker.
make install
Eep
Cannot create folder
'/usr/local/include/node/' (original error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/include')
Lets do that with sudo, if it works for sandwiches...
Yay! 'install' finished successfully (0.256s)
If you have Homebrew installed, you can just do:
brew install mongodb
And follow the rest of the installation instructions displayed on the screen.
This is for node packages. Yummy yummy nodey packages.
curl -o install_npm.sh http://npmjs.org/install.sh
sudo sh install_npm.sh
If you have Homebrew installed, you can just do:
brew install clucene --HEAD
git clone https://github.com/LockerProject/Locker.git
cd Locker
Yay, downloaded (cloned) it directly from github.com. Now I have my own personal Locker platform to run with.
We need to set it up though...
npm install
python setupEnv.py (unless you have a homebrew version of Python you may need to sudo this.)
node lockerd.js
Hot damn, it's up! Now to go to http://localhost:8042 to access it with Chrome.
