The Islandora framework relies upon a number of other open source applications. Before beginning the installation of any Islandora modules, ensure:
Any Islandora Solution Pack may come with a specific set of requirements and dependencies outside of the scope of the basic Islandora Installation. You will need to install any dependencies specific to a Solution Pack in order for that Solution Pack to function properly. |
To take full advantage of the module you will need to enable the Fedora Resource Index in the Fedora config file. You should also follow the steps on Installing Solr and GSearch. Although this is not required to be completed prior to installing the Islandora Module, Fedora GSearch does include Lucene and enables full text searching of the repository. |
At the end of this installation, you will be ready to populate your site with digital assets and be capable of using any installed Solution Packs. Your root Islandora repository can be found at base-site-url/islandora.
To install the module, use the standard Drupal module installation method:
Manually via the command line:
cd /public_html/your_drupal_directory/sites/all/modules git clone -b 7.x https://github.com/Islandora/islandora.git |
cd /public_html/your_drupal_directory/sites/all/modules wget https://github.com/Islandora/islandora/archive/7.x.zip unzip 7.x.zip # At this point, you should consider changing ownership of the directory and its contents to the webserver user (i.e. if using Apache and the user is www-data): chown -R www-data:www-data islandora-7.x |
At the end of this installation, you will be ready to populate your site with digital assets and be capable of using any installed Solution Packs. Your root Islandora repository can be found at base-site-url/islandora.
