In this series of tutorial, I assume that Pinoco has been installed using PEAR. Also these conditions are expected: PHP is installed as Apache module and you can use mod_rewrite in your .htaccess. If not so but you can use Pinoco by small adjustment for your bootstrap files(_gateway.php and .htaccess) or Apache configuration files. Sorry not to tell you that way below.

At first, you should have a folder for your web site. Go the web public folder and create new folder (for example, 01.helloworld for the 1st session, here) by command or file-manager as you like.

$ mkdir 01.helloworld

Download an empty Pinoco project archive and unpack it into your folder.

$ cd 01.helloworld
$ wget http://pinoco.googlecode.com/files/empty-project-min.tgz
$ tar xzf empty-project-min.tgz

Then, file layout is to be :

01.helloworld
  _app
    hooks/*
    lib/*
    .htaccess
  .htaccess
  _gateway.php

01.helloworld is a web public folder. Static resource or HTML pages are stored just like as static site structure. Basically you can assume that contents in this folder (but else _app) are visible to Web as is.

_app is an application logic related folder. You will put PHP scripts and also any additional file/folder into here freely. The _app and under here is just for web invisible resource.

To understand step by step, remove annoying files included as default in my example project. These files are useful to develop a real site, but they are optional.

$ rm app/hooks/*.php

Now, look into the site using your web browser. For example:

http://localhost/01.helloworld/

'403 Forbidden' would be shown, it means that you are ready to start. In addition, you can confirm by looking into HTTP response header. Pinoco would be added to 'Powered-By' entry. ( Pinoco's contents often looks a static content or plain PHP page. Then this marking is useful to know if Pinoco works or not.)

Now, blown soul into your static site in Pinoco's way.

What's wrong?

You may need to set RewriteBase of mod_rewrite. In case an error shown, edit htdocs/.htaccess and set RewriteBase as the absolute path of your project URI. (It happens when Alias directive points your folder in Apache configuration.)

RewriteBase /your/alias/uri
