ProjectExplorer is a versatile app that can be used as standalone or as a client library. The documentation concerning the different setup cases is being updated after a major refactoring and will grow in time.
Here are the main points.
In the simplest setup, just clone the repository and open explorerjs.html in a modern browser.
git clone https://github.com/moma/ProjectExplorer.git
cd ProjectExplorer
firefox explorerjs.html
=> An input in the upper right side allows you to open any gexf file. []
An overview of the application structure can be found in the extended documentation under 00.DOCUMENTATION/A-Introduction/app_structure.md (comments are in french).
To activate all features, you should:
- configure a web server like apache or nginx, for instance on your localhost
- define a new "location" in your apache or nginx conf, pointing to the directory you cloned
Now you can already use ProjectExplorer as a showcase for a given file
- Put a mono or bipartite gexf, e.g.:
Somemap.gexf, inside thedata/folder. - And then see it in your browser:
http://localhost/explorerjs.html?sourcemode=serverfile&file=data/Somemap.gexf
Once you have this webserver running and some source data files, you may also configure a "sources list":
- it will be shown as a menu to select graphs in the interface
- it allows to define associated node types for each source
- it allows to define associated search backends for each source
- to use this, follow the guidelines in the Project config HOWTO
To integrate ProjectExplorer in a larger web application, you may have several locations with subdirectories defined on your server. In this case, you'll need to use the provided path modification tool (see this integration procedure example)
For more information about ProjectExplorer's settings (settings file, input modes, attribute processing options), please refer to the detailed introduction and the developer's manual.
