Notes

Copy the scripts into onto your web server, and configure the store folder in configuration.inc.php.

The package contains two main scripts:

store.php with the actual store implementation
admin.php with an admin interface

Make sure that the admin interface is not accessible to the public.

Configure your webserver such that all URLs starting with

http://your-server.com/path/store.php/...

are passed to store.php. Similarly, all

http://your-server.com/path/admin.php/...

URLs should be handled by admin.php. Many web servers are configured like that already.

The scripts require following server variables:

REQUEST_METHOD	HTTP request method with uppercase letters, e.g. GET
REQUEST_URI	the full path, e.g. /path/to/admin.php/accounts/
PATH_INFO	(optional) the sub path, e.g. /accounts/

If the PATH_INFO variable is not available, the sub path is derived from the request URI. If you are passing different variables to your PHP script, adapt the code in utilities.inc.php accordingly.

Signatures

The store currently does not verify signatures.

Store URL

The store URL to be passed to Condensation is:

http://your-server.com/path/store.php
