Software repository portal built on semantic technologies

The OntoSoft portal provides access to the OntoSoft system (http://www.ontosoft.org/) by allowing you to browse, and add models to the repository.

Demo here: http://www.ontosoft.org/portal/

1. Java JDK 1.7+ (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
2. Maven 2/3 (http://maven.apache.org/)
3. Tomcat 7+ (http://tomcat.apache.org/)

1. $ mvn clean && mvn install

   • This will create a ontosoft-server-[version].war file in server/target
   • It will also create a ontosoft-client-[version].war file in client/target

2. Move the war files to a Servlet container (Tomcat)

   • $ mv /path/to/ontosoft-server-.war /path/to/tomcat/webapps/ontosoft-server.war
   • $ mv /path/to/ontosoft-client-.war /path/to/tomcat/webapps/ontosoft-client.war

3. Start tomcat

   • $ /path/to/tomcat/bin/startup.sh

4. Open http://[your-server-name]:8080/ontosoft-server/vocabulary to check that the local repository server is working fine. It might take a little while to open it for the first time as it downloads vocabularies from the internet.

5. Check $HOME/.ontosoft/server.properties file to see that server name is correctly identified

6. Open http://[your-server-name]:8080/ontosoft-client to access the OntoSoft UI that connects with the local repository

7. Customize the client by changing /path/to/tomcat/webapps/ontosoft-client/customise/config.js

8. The default userid is "admin" with password "changeme!". Remember to change it :)
