| 17 | 1. ABOUT ITAKA: |
|---|
| 18 | |
|---|
| 19 | Itaka is an on-demand screen capture server for Windows, Mac Os X and Linux. It is developed in Python, PyGTK and the Twisted Framework. It prominently features a polished easy to use interface, with a robust backend server. |
|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | 2. REQUIRED LIBRARIES: |
|---|
| 22 | |
|---|
| 23 | Itaka requires the following programs/libraries. |
|---|
| 24 | |
|---|
| 25 | - Python 2.3 or higher |
|---|
| 26 | - PyGTK 2.10.0 or higher |
|---|
| 27 | - Twisted 2.2.0 or higher |
|---|
| 28 | |
|---|
| 29 | - GTK 2.10 or higher |
|---|
| 30 | |
|---|
| 31 | 3. INSTALLATION: |
|---|
| 32 | Itaka needs to be installed as the root user. |
|---|
| 33 | |
|---|
| 34 | Unpack and install the Itaka tarball using these commands: |
|---|
| 35 | |
|---|
| 36 | 'tar -xjvf <packagename>.tar.bz2' |
|---|
| 37 | |
|---|
| 38 | Switch to the newly created directory and type 'make install' as root and the |
|---|
| 39 | Makefile will copy the files to the correct location in your system. You do not |
|---|
| 40 | need to configure or compile Itaka as it is written in interpreted Python code. |
|---|
| 41 | |
|---|
| 42 | By default itaka will be installed in /usr/local/, if you want to use another location, add PREFIX=/usr/mylocation after every make command, including unnstall. |
|---|
| 43 | |
|---|
| 44 | Example: make PREFIX=/usr |
|---|
| 45 | |
|---|
| 46 | To uninstall, once again as root type 'make uninstall' |
|---|
| 47 | |
|---|
| 48 | 4. DEBIAN PACKAGE: |
|---|
| 49 | |
|---|
| 50 | To create the Debian package simply do: |
|---|
| 51 | |
|---|
| 52 | # Make sure you have your gpg keys and debian development environment correctly setup |
|---|
| 53 | # You must also package the itaka source as a tarball per debian guidelines. |
|---|
| 54 | |
|---|
| 55 | debuild |
|---|
| 56 | |
|---|
| 57 | 5. DOCUMENTATION: |
|---|

|---|
| 61 | You can ownload epydoc from http://epydoc.sourceforge.net/ |
|---|
| 62 | |
|---|
| 63 | You can generate documentation using epydoc. |
|---|
| 64 | |
|---|
| 65 | mkdir doc |
|---|
| 66 | epydoc --html -o doc -n Itaka -u "http://itaka.jardinpresente.com.ar" *.py |
