This documents presents the first steps to configure your Chimère.

+

The version has been updated for version 2.0.0.

+

If an usage to the CLI is required, your session has to be initialised with +theses environment variables:

+

CHIMERE_PATH=/srv/chimere # change with your installation path
+CHIMERE_LOCALNAME=mychimere # change with your local project name
+CHIMERE_APP_PATH=$CHIMERE_PATH/$CHIMERE_LOCALNAME

+

When you have installed the application there is a few simple steps to follow to +configure your Chimère.

+

Most of theses steps are done in the web administration pages.

+

If you are not familiar with Django-like administration pages you can look +at the first paragraph of Administration where it is presented.

+

To access theses pages you have to identify you with an account with staff and +superuser status.

+

A superuser account is created at the initialization of the database. You can +create a new superuser account in the web interface (see the account +management section) or with the CLI:

+

./manage.py createsuperuser

+

Creating areas¶

+

You probably want to define at least one default area. The configuration of +this area allow you to define the default zoom, welcome message, etc. of your +Chimère.

+

Creating users¶

+

If you are not the only administrator of this Chimère installation you have to create account for the other users. +Currently the process has to be done manualy.

+

Simply click on the Add button near Users. Give a name and a default password (the user can change it on in own later). +Then complete the other pieces of information. +Check the case: Member of the staff (or this user will not be able to log to this administration site). +To simply give this user correct rights don’t add permission manualy but make this user member of a group. +Two default group are proposed: application administrator and moderator.

+

Detail of rights for default user/groups:

Category/Subcategory add/modify/delete	yes	yes	no
Point Of Interest add/modify/delete	yes	yes	yes
Route add/modify/delete	yes	yes	yes

+

Creating property models¶

+

A basic installation of Chimère only permit to associate a name, a category, a +description and (for the point of interest) multimedia files for each point of +interest and each route. You may want to add more fields like phone number or +opening hours. For that all you have to do is to add a new property model. +The administration ask you for name, order (to order between other properties), +availability for the user and type (only text field and long text field are +available for the moment). +Then to make this property available it is necessary to restart your +application (and then probably to reload Apache). +All forms are then automatically updated with this new field.
