Fair warning: This is all under development and not yet packaged up for easy deployment

Cinera

Install the dependencies

  1. flex (for hmmlib)
  2. curl (for cinera)

Download, and prepare the parser

  1. git clone git@gitssh.handmade.network:Annotation-Pushers/Annotation-System.git
  2. cd Annotation-System/hmmlib
  3. make
  4. cp hmml.a hmmlib.h ../cinera/
  5. cd ../cinera/

Note: For each parser update, remember to make and copy it into place.

Build

  1. $SHELL cinera.c

Configure the server

If you enforce a strict Content Security Policy and X-Frame-Options in your server configuration as recommended by Security Headers, you may enable Cinera to function by making two small tweaks:

add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src … https://www.youtube.com https://s.ytimg.com";
add_header X-Frame-Options "ALLOW-FROM https://www.youtube.com";

Note: For more information about these and other security headers, see Scott Helme's articles Content Security Policy - An Introduction and Hardening your HTTP response headers.

Run

Single Edition operation

cinera test.hmml

This simply generates an HTML file (and updates cinera_topics.css if needed) from test.hmml and outputs to out.html (configurable with -o).

Project Edition operation

cinera -p ProjectID

Setting the ProjectID with the -p flag triggers Project Edition. In this edition Cinera monitors the Project Input Directory for new, edited and deleted .hmml files, and generates one table of contents / search page and a player page each for valid sets of annotations (or removes them, if needed).

By default all directories - input and output - are set to the current working directory. Typical operation will involve setting these flags:

-d Project Input Directory, the directory where the .hmml files reside
-r Asset Root Directory, path shallower than or equal to the CSS, Images and
   JS directories
-R Asset Root URL, corresponding to the Root Directory
-c CSS Directory, relative to Root
-i Images Directory, relative to Root
-j JS Directory, relative to Root
-b Output Base Directory, location of the table of contents / search page
-B Output Base URL, corresponding to the Output Base Directory
-t Template Directory
-x Search Template Location, relative to Template Directory
-y Player Template Location, relative to Template Directory
