jSlate
jSlate enables you to setup dashboards for displaying data easily.
A dashboard consists of widgets. Widgets are html/javascript and can do anything.
A number of templates for widgets are provided to get you started.
jSlate provides a php proxy so the widgets can request data from off-site locations.
Installation
- Install LAMP (ensure mod_rewrite is enabled)
- Download jslate to your web directory (e.g. /jslate)
- Edit app/config/database.php to match your settings
- Ensure app/tmp folder is writeable by user and webserver
- Run:
app/Console/cake migrate - Open up localhost/jslate/users/add
- Add a user
- Go to localhost/jslate and login
Note if upgrading
If you already have jSlate installed and have run migrate_new_edit.sql, then you should do the following:
- Move all SQL files in app/Config/Schema/migrations to another folder
- Run:
app/Console/cake migrate - Manually add '20130629132807-initial' and '20130629132829-html-widgets' to the __migrations table
- Move the SQL files back
- You can now safely run
cake migratein the future.
