Quick Start Guide

Downloading Mutant Vole

The recommended way to download Mutant Vole PHP at this time is to checkout a copy of the latest branch.

svn checkout http://mvp-php.googlecode.com/svn/branches/0.2

Basic Setup

If you haven't already, put the mvp-php directory somewhere in your web directory.

It is suggested that you download the three optional libraries and place them in the /lib directory under mvp-php.

• Smarty should be placed in /lib/Smarty
• HTML QuickForm should be placed in /lib/HTML_QuickForm
• Spyc should be placed in /lib/spyc

Configuration

Next, you'll probably want to have a lookat /index.php to change some of the settings. In particular, you might need to change the WEB_ROOT define to point to the base URL of where you installed Mutant Vole.

Try the Demo App

If you surf to the base mvp-php directory, you should be able to load the very simple demo application. If you can load the demo app, you're ready to start building your own Mutant Vole App!
