phorkie is released as self-contained .phar file that includes
all dependencies, as well as a normal zip file.
See phorkie downloads page for all released versions.
Download phorkie-0.8.1.phar and put it in your web server's document root
directory.
No further setup needed.
Note
Only valid if your webserver is configured to let
PHP handle .phar files.
Unfortunately, no Linux distribution has this activated by default. You can do it yourself, though - see Enable .phar handling in your web server.
Warning
PHP has some bugs in its .phar handling code (e.g. with FPM).
So currently, the .phar option is considered experimental.
Unzip the phorkie release file:
$ tar xjvf phorkie-0.8.1.tar.bz2
Create the git directories:
$ mkdir -p www/repos/git www/repos/work $ chmod og+w www/repos/git www/repos/work
Install dependencies
Copy
data/config.php.disttodata/config.phpand adjust it to your needs:$ cp data/config.php.dist data/config.php $ $EDITOR data/config.php
Look at
config.default.phpfor values that you may adjust.Set your web server's document root to
/path/to/phorkie/www/Alternatively, you can add a symlink to thewwwfolder into your web server's existing document root tree (being careful to keep main phorkie folder outside the document root for security purposes) and ensure you set thebaseurlconfig option appropriately. You must also set theRewriteBasein the.htaccessfile or adjust the nginx configuration accordingly.Open http://yourhost/setup in your web browser to see if everything is working fine.
Go to http://yourhost/

phorkie stands on the shoulders of giants.
It requires the following programs to be installed on your machine:
- Git v1.7.5 or later
- PHP v8.0.0 or later
- with the
mbstringextension
- with the
- A dozen of libraries
Use composer to install all dependencies:
$ composer install --no-dev
Note that the .phar package already contains all dependencies.
phorkie makes use of an Elasticsearch installation, if you have one.
It is used to provide search capabilities and the list of recent pastes.
Elasticsearch version 2.0 is supported.
You have to install the delete-by-query plugin:
$ cd /usr/share/elasticsearch $ bin/plugin install delete-by-query
Edit config.php, setting the elasticsearch property to the HTTP URL
of the index, e.g.
http://localhost:9200/phorkie/
You must use a search namespace with Elasticsearch such as phorkie/.
Run the index script to import all existing pastes into the index:
php scripts/index.php
That's all. Open phorkie in your browser, and you'll notice the search box in the top menu.
In case something really went wrong and you need to reset the search index, run the following command:
$ curl -XDELETE http://localhost:9200/phorkie/
{"ok":true,"acknowledged"}
Phorkie will automatically re-index everything when setupcheck is enabled
in the configuration file.
You may also manually run the reindexing script with:
$ php scripts/index.php
By default, the pastes are clonable via http as long as the repos/git/
directory is within the www/ directory.
No further setup needed.
You may use git-daemon to provide public git:// clone urls.
Install the git-daemon-run package on Debian/Ubuntu.
Make the repositories available by symlinking the paste repository
directory ($GLOBALS['phorkie']['cfg']['repos'] setting) into
/var/cache/git, e.g.:
$ ln -s /home/user/www/paste/repos/git /var/cache/git/paste
Edit your config.php and set the $GLOBALS['phorkie']['cfg']['git']['public']
setting to git://$yourhostname/git/paste/.
The rest will be appended automatically.
You're on your own to setup writable repositories.
You have the option of enabling OpenID authentication to help secure your
pastes on phorkie.
Set the $GLOBALS['phorkie']['auth'] values in the
data/config.php file as desired.
There are two different types of security you can apply.
First, you can restrict to one of three securityLevels:
- completely open (
0) - protection of write-enabled functions such as add, edit, etc. (
1) - full site protection (
2)
Additionally, you can restrict your site to listedUsersOnly.
You will need to add the individual OpenID urls to the
$GLOBALS['phorkie']['auth']['users'] variable.
Phorkie stores the user's OpenID or IP address (when not logged in) when a paste is edited. It is possible to get this information for each single commit:
// IP / OpenID for the latest commit $ git notes --ref=identity show 127.0.0.1 // show IP / OpenID for a given commit $ git notes --ref=identity show 29f82a http://cweiske.de/
Depending on how you use phorkie, it might be nice to notify some other service when pastes are added or updated. Phorkie contains a simply mechanism to post data to a given URL which you can then use as needed.
The data are json-encoded POSTed to the URLs contained in the
$GLOBALS['phorkie']['cfg']['webhooks'] setting array, with
a MIME type of application/vnd.phorkie.webhook+json:
{
'event': 'create',
'author': {
'name':'Anonymous',
'email': 'anonymous@phorkie',
},
'repository': {
'name': 'webhooktest',
'url': 'http://example.org/33',
'description': 'webhooktest',
'owner': {
'name': 'Anonymous',
'email': 'anonymous@phorkie',
}
}
}
The event may be create, edit or delete.
