Note: openLMIS is intended to be run on a supported, highly reliable server for operational needs. These instructions are for the developer to begin to run openLMIS on a localhost machine and then be able to make changes.

The basic setup of openLMIS consists of:

  1. installing the prerequisites
  2. creating a Rails application with the OLMIS app template

Prerequisites

  • Rails 2.3.5
  • Ruby 1.8.6
  • MySQL 5.1
  • A UNIX-like operating system

Follow a common guide, such as this one, for downloading and installing Ruby on Rails.

Installing OLMIS

OLMIS installs as a plugin in a larger Rails application. There is a Rails template to automate the installation in a new application, but you can also install OLMIS by hand.

rails my_olmis_project -m http://github.com/villagereach/openLMIS/raw/master/olmis-template.txt
