Dependencies

TEI data

TEI data for publications is available: [https://github.com/Beth-Mardutho/hugoye-data] The data must be packaged and deployed to your eXist instance in order to use the syriaca.org app.

Additional dependancies

Check that the following packages/libraries are deployed in eXist before deploying the srophe-eXist-app:

• eXist-db Shared apps: [http://exist-db.org:8098/exist/apps/public-repo/packages/shared.html]
• JSON Parser and Serializer for XQuery .1.6 + : [https://github.com/joewiz/xqjson]

Packages can be deployed via the eXistdb dashboard.

Setting up Github webhooks

Syrica.org uses Github webhooks [https://developer.github.com/webhooks/] to keep the remote application upto date with the github repository.

• Requires the EXPath Crypto library to verify Github submissions. [http://exist-db.org:8098/exist/apps/public-repo/packages/expath-crypto-exist-lib.html]

• Requires a config file added to the app home directory. Do not store this file in your github repository. Example:

  <config>
      <!-- Configuration for Github webhooks sync feature -->
      <git-config>
          <!-- github secret key can be stored here or as a environment variable. (prefered)  -->
          <private-key/>
          <private-key-variable>VARIABLE_NAME</private-key-variable>
          <!-- github token for rate limiting. can be stored here or as a environment variable. (prefered)  -->
          <gitToken/>
          <gitToken-variable/>
          <!-- Branch to sync, if empty assumes master -->
          <github-branch>master</github-branch>
          <!-- Collection in eXistdb to sync app to. example: /db/apps/srophe -->
          <exist-collection>/db/apps/srophe</exist-collection>
          <!-- App root in git repository. example: srophe-app -->
          <repo-name>srophe-app</repo-name>
      </git-config>
  </config>
