With this release comes a few new features and slightly easier setup. In order to run this version, you must use a the following command:
python run_o2m.py
Once you've done this, look at the URL in your console and browse to it. This is includes the IP address you can give to your friends on the same network. This version is still only for communication between computers on the same network, however there's nothing to say that it wouldn't work technically through a gateway router. There would have to be port-forwarding set-up on the gateway in front of the servers however.
New Features 🎈
- The default login is a username of "user", and a password of "password". When you login, you will be prompted for a username. This is what people will call you for the rest of your friendship with them unless they change what they call you on their machine. It is assumed in places that this will stay the same for the rest of time, so choose wisely. In future, you should be able to change it as many times as you want however.
- Become friends with someone my browsing to
http://your.ip.address/o2m/non_friend/TheirUsername@their.ip.address:their_portwhere 'their_port' will be 8000 by default. Then click on the link underneath the placeholder for their profile picture. - View notifications by going to
http://your.ip.address/o2m/notifications(they don't do much at the moment) - Accept a friend request by doing the same as above.
- Link and Content removal are now possible (if you're on Mac, Safari - see bugs)
- Visit /admin for the standard Django admin page to administer your site. Be careful what you change or things might stop working 😄
Bugs 🐛
- If you're running Windows with Chrome, then you won't be able to delete anything (through the standard interface)
