• You will need a MySQL/MariaDB server for the blog's database.

Installing / Updating perl modules

./build.sh

or, if cpanm is available (App::cpanminus on CPAN) run cpanm --installdeps . in the folder where PearlBee was checked out and the Makefile.PL is.

Creating database

You'll need to have installed and running either MySQL or MariaDB. Update the file db_patches/create_tables.sql, replacing 'username' and 'password' with the credentials you'd like the PearlBee system to use. Add these same credentials to the user and pass sections in config.yml.

At the terminal from the root application directory, run this command: mysql -u root -p < pearlbee/db_patches/create_tables.sql

An alternative way of setting up the db is by running this command: mysql -u root -p < pearlbee/db_patches/set_up_new_db.sql

That's it, now from within the root directory run the following command:

plackup -R lib/ bin/app.pl

Or:

./scripts/launch-devel

And your blog is now running!
