Get it
At this moment there is no package for debian or ubuntu but you can get the source code from Launchpad at:
- Vazaar Project Files (lastest version is 0.4)
Resolve dependencies
This applicaton has some dependencies that you must install in your system before run it:
- Language: Python >= 2.5 (python2.5 is preferred)
- Libraries
- RDFLib: python-rdflib (RDF library containing an RDF triple store and a RDF/XML parser/serializer)
- XDG: python-xdg (A python library to access freedesktop.org standards)
- lxml: python-lxml (help to fetch webpage titles)
- FeedParser: python-feedparser (fetch feeds and analyze them)
- BeautifulShop: python-beautifulsoup (help to find html code)
- Extractor: extractor program & python-extractor bindings (extract metadata)
- Webkit: python binding to embed a browser into any application.
For debian-based systems you can use this command to install all the dependencies:
sudo apt-get install python2.5 python-rdflib python-xdg python-lxml python-feedparser \
python-extractor python-notify python-webkit python-beautifulsoup
Run it
There are two ways:
- run it as developer from your home by executing the command:
./launch
- installing it in your system:
sudo easy_install-2.5 -U vazaar (vazaar is installed by default in /usr/) or sudo easy_install -U vazaar (vazaar is installed by default in /usr/local)
Warnings
- This is a stable version but it is not considerated for use in Production systems. This is Beta software.
- Vazaar can run with python2.5 and python2.6 but 2.5 version is preferred. In a future I hope I can use RDFLib 3.0 and Python 3.0.
