Diatheke Suite by Chris Little This suite is intended for use with libraries and modules from the SWORD Project, available at http://www.crosswire.org/ The latest versions of this suite and its components are available at http://www.crosswire.org/sword/diatheke This suite consists of the following components: Diatheke - a command line utility, good for lots of stuff Diatheke/CGI - a PERL CGI module interface to Diatheke 4.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALLING Diatheke/CGI To install Diatheke/CGI, first install PERL and a webserver such as Apache that is capable of running PERL CGIs. Installing mod_perl is recommended for a speed improvement, but is by no means necessary. Then copy the two .pl files from the ./cgi directory of this distribution into your cgi-bin directory. Modify the top of diatheke.pl to reflect the correct location of your your diatheke command line utility binary and the default font if necessary. The CGI is now installed and ready for access. diatheke.pl is the main lookup script. dia-def.pl is a supplemental script used to set a default Bible translation (saved on the user's computer as a cookie). Two sample HTML files are included as sample interfaces for an general Web-Bible gateway. index-public.html includes all currently available free texts while index-private.html includes all currently available texts, including those which are encrypted because of copyright and distribution restrictions. In any case, you should only use these as a guide, adding and subtracting modules depending on which modules you have installed and have permission to publish on the internet or your intranet. The bottom section of each file includes an example call to the dia-def.pl script to set a default Bible version. You may also direct users directly to your perl script since it will present a page with all of your modules. Or you may wish to use this default page to create a custom index.html for your users. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- VERSION HISTORY 4.7 ..., 2014 Updated for Sword 1.8.0.
