1 | REQUIREMENTS: |
2 | ||
3 | Smarty requires PHP 4.0.6 or later. | |
4 | See the on-line documentation for complete install instructions. | |
5 | ||
6 | INSTALLATION (quick): | |
7 | ||
8 | * copy the files under the libs/ directory to a directory that is in your PHP | |
9 | include_path, or set the SMARTY_DIR constant and put them in this directory. | |
10 | (if you upgrade from versions before 2.5.0 be aware that up to Smarty 2.4.2 | |
11 | all necessary files where in the distribution's root directory, but are now | |
12 | in libs/.) | |
13 | ||
14 | * for each application using Smarty, create a "templates", "configs", and a | |
15 | "templates_c" directory, be sure to set the appropriate directory settings in | |
16 | Smarty for them. If they are located in the same directory as your | |
17 | application, they shouldn't need to be modified. Be sure the "templates_c" | |
18 | directory is writable by your web server user (usually nobody). chown | |
19 | nobody:nobody templates_c; chmod 700 templates_c You can also chmod 777 this | |
20 | directory, but be aware of security issues for multi-user systems. If you are | |
21 | using Smarty's built-in caching, create a "cache" directory and also chown | |
22 | nobody:nobody. | |
23 | ||
24 | * setup your php and template files. A good working example is in the on-line | |
25 | documentation. | |
26 | ||
27 | * TECHNICAL NOTE: If you do not have access to the php.ini file, you can change | |
28 | non-server settings (such as your include_path) with the ini_set() command. | |
29 | example: ini_set("include_path",".:/usr/local/lib/php"); |
