RRTOOLS description
RRTOOLS is both a digital cookbook and an editor for recipe authors.
RRTOOLS is both a digital cookbook and an editor for recipe authors. It features a recipe format that satisfies most needs, including unlimited use of media, meta information, and much more.
The RRTOOLS project can be used to run a full featured recipe site that communicates its content to the main RichRecipe.com server. This way, a global network of recipe sources is established that can be queried by the cookbook part of the application.
Here are some key features of "RRTOOLS":
· the app uses (read/write) a sophisticated XML based recipe structure
· which uses separate, uniquely identified steps
· step can be grouped in "components", which will be replaceable (e.g. a sauce with a sauce from a different recipe)
· unlimited media per step, all kinds of media supported
· steps can be checked as "done", when preparing multiple recipes at once the app provides an overview what has been done
· multiple timers with alarm (visual and audible
· information can be attached to the steps (appliance commands, comments, media etc)
· menus and cookbooks will be available later
Advantages and Features for End Users
· the app is a digital cookbook for end users (recipe caching/mirroring will be added for offline use)
· Ingredients are related to each step, not just to the recipe
· recipe bookmarks
· create and email shopping list (tbd)
· virtual storage (tbd)
· tagging, rating (tdb)
· searches can be saved (tdb)
Advantages for Authors
· Authors have full control over their contents
· the host is independent from big portal sites
· free for private use
Requirements:
· Apache web server with PHP5 (with SOAP and gd) support (probably works on other servers, but not with PHP4)
· mod_rewrite (might probably work without)
· A web browser (Firefox is best, IE will not work flawlessly) with JavaScript enabled and UTF-8 support
Installation:
1. Download the release you want at Origo
2. Unzip the archive and copy the contents to your webserver
3. Note down the physical path and URI to the directory on the server where RRTOOLS resides
4. Note down path and URI to the content folder as well. The location can be outside the rrtools directory (and later even be outside document root).
5. Optional: Setup an IMAP account for Email-based uploads (not working yet)
6. Edit these files in the directory (instructions inside):
· ./.htaccess replace the RewriteBase value with the name of your installation folder
· ./system/application/config/rrconfig.php
7. Register an user account
8. Register your site (login first)
