To get your own instance of OpenHatch running, follow these simple steps:
== 1. Clone our git repository ==
You will need to have the ''git'' version control system installed. Once you do, type this into a terminal:
$ git clone git://code.openhatch.org/milestone-a.git
== 2. Read the README ==
Once you change directory into the milestone-a directory:
$ cd milestone-a
and read the embedded README.mkd file.
$ less README.mkd
'''That''' is what we really keep up to date with the necessary things.
== 3. Run the tests ==
We have automated tests that help us know when we've broken functionality in the OpenHatch code. Running the tests is a good way to make sure your OpenHatch environment works properly! Try this:
$ ./bin/sqlite_mysite test missions
That runs the test suite for just the ''missions'' part of the code. It uses the sqlite-based test runner so it runs fast; the real website uses MySQL, not SQLite, but you'll discover that tests run about 10 times faster in the sqlite runner.
== 4. Play with your local install ==
Once you've gone through these steps, just visit your own OpenHatch instance on the web. You can start the server with:
$ ./bin/mysite runserver
and load up http://localhost:8000/ in your web browser.
== 5. Read more documentation ==
You can find more tips about hacking OpenHatch in other pages in the [[Category:Hacking_OpenHatch|Hacking OpenHatch category]] on this wiki.
