Download EtherPad for Your Own Server
- bprater 18y agoOuch. Bummer it's Java. As a plain old lamp kinda guy, I wouldn't know the first about servicing Java requests. (Not just running a simple server like the docs recommend.) How hard is it?
- gojomo 18y agoTo run EtherPad, why would you need to do more than their suggested command line: root@localhost$ java -Xmx512M -jar enterprise-etherpad-1.0b4.jar ??? As a LAMP guy, you could surely use mod_rewrite to map that EtherPad server to whatever other urlspace you'd like.
- rs 18y agoYou'll need mod_proxy as well to forward the request from a LAMP stack
- mahmud 18y agoHow did you overcome NIH syndrome? my first reaction was to reach for Richard Stevens' volumes and write Etherpad over BSD sockets; a mix between (y)talk and nano (note to self, read up on the various buffer management strategies, roll a little transaction layer and shelf this project under "I'm sure I can do that with an emacs mode ..")

- antiismist 18y agoEtherpad rocks. Just today I was thinking that it would be great to be able to use it as a platform - e.g. imagine a real time wiki.
- preactive 18y agowhy pay for something like this when you can download MoonEdit for free ( http://moonedit.com http://moonedit.com ) just saying.
- jodrellblank 18y agoBecause it's better (using it has fewer steps, the interface is like other web apps, it doesn't require you to pick one of the desktop PCs as a server and tell people the IP address, and it saves as you go so anyone closing their browser will not lose work). just saying.
