Installation
------------
You need to have installed Python >= 2.7, MongoDB and some Python libraries.
Configuration is done via the file *conf/conf.cfg*.
Launch the script ``install.sh`` in order to install automatically all requirements.
In order to prevent all dependencies problems and to keep your system stable, the libraries will be
installed in a Python virtual environment (with [virtualenv](http://www.virtualenv.org)).
The installation will use the configuration file for the database setup.
Then point your browser to the address [http://127.0.0.1:5000/](http://127.0.0.1:5000/) and login with the email address
*firstname.lastname@mail.com* and the password *secret*. You can update your profile at the
address [http://127.0.0.1:5000/profile/](http://127.0.0.1:5000/profile/).
As already said, you can configure pyAggr3g470r (database name, proxy, user agent, etc.) in the file *conf/conf.cfg*.
For example if you want to use pyAggr3g470r with Tor/Privoxy, you just have to set the value of
*http_proxy* (most of the time: ``http_proxy = 127.0.0.1:8118``). Else leave the value blank.
However, the default configuration should be good, so you really just have to run the script *install.sh*.
Automatic updates
-----------------
You can fetch new articles with [cron](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron) and the script *fetch.py*.
For example if you want to check for updates every 30 minutes, add this line to your cron rules (``crontab -e``):
*/30 * * * * cd ~/.pyaggr3g470r/ ; python fetch.py firstname.lastname@mail.com
You must give the email address you use to login to pyAggr3g470r.
Backup
------
If you want to backup your database:
$ su
$ /etc/init.d/mongodb stop
$ cp /var/lib/mongodb/pyaggr3g470r.* ~
