<h1>Getting Started</h1>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>This page will help you to get started with EWF.
|
|
We will first see how to install EWF and then how to compile and run the venerable <i>Hello World</i> example.</p>
|
|
<h2>Installation</h2>
|
|
<h3>EiffelStudio</h3>
|
|
<p>Latest EiffelStudio release comes with latest EWF version: there is nothing to do in this case.</p>
|
|
<p>If you are using an older version of EiffelStudio, we recommand to download the latest EWF version ({{ site.version }} as of this writing) instead of using the one that comes with EiffelStudio.</p>
|
|
<h3>Download</h3>
|
|
<p>Follow these steps to download and install EWF on your computer:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><a href="{{ site.download }}">Dowload the archive</a></li>
|
|
<li>Create a directory where you will put your custom Eiffel libraries</li>
|
|
<li>Extract EWF in the newly created directory</li>
|
|
<li>Define the environment variable EIFFEL_LIBRARY to point to the newly created directory</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<h3>Source code</h3>
|
|
<p>The source code is available on Github.
|
|
You can get it by running the command:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>git clone git://github.com/EiffelWebFramework/EWF.git</code></pre>
|
|
<h2>Hello World</h2>
|
|
<p>The hello world example is located in the directory <i>$ISE_EIFFEL/contrib/examples/web/ewf/simple</i>.
|
|
Just double click on the <i>simple.ecf</i> file and select the <i>simple</i> target or if you prefer the command line, run the command:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>estudio -config simple.ecf -target simple</code></pre>
|
|
<p>Once the project is compiled, you can launch the application and point your browser to <a href="http://localhost:9090">http://localhost:9090</a>.
|
|
You should now see a simple page with <i>Hello World</i>.</p>
|
|
<h2>Next steps</h2>
