=======================
Development Environment
=======================
Please follow the steps on this page to set up your development environment.
Set up web server and database
==============================
First `set up your web server and database <http://doc.owncloud.org/server/7.0/admin_manual/installation.html>`_ (**Section**: Manual Installation - Prerequisites).
Get the source
==============
There are two ways to obtain ownCloud sources:
* Using the `stable version <http://doc.owncloud.org/server/7.0/admin_manual/installation.html>`_
* Using the development version from `GitHub`_ which will be explained below.
To check out the source from `GitHub`_ you will need to install git (see `Setting up git <https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git>`_ from the GitHub help)
Gather information about server setup
-------------------------------------
To get started the basic git repositories need to cloned into the web server's directory. Depending on the distribution this will either be
* **/var/www**
* **/var/www/html**
* **/srv/http**
Then identify the user and group the web server is running as and the Apache user and group for the **chown** command will either be
* **http**
* **www-data**
* **apache**
Check out the code
------------------
The following commands are using **/var/www** as the web server's directory and **www-data** as user name and group.
.. note:: Python 3.4 includes pip by default
Install the development tool (**depends on Python 3 and python3-pip**)::
sudo pip3 install ocdev
Make the directory writable::
sudo chmod o+rw /var/www
Then install ownCloud from git::
ocdev setup base
Adjust rights::
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/core/data/
sudo chmod o-rw /var/www
Finally restart the web server (this might vary depending on your distribution)::
sudo systemctl restart httpd.service
or::
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
After the clone Open http://localhost/core (or the corresponding URL) in your web browser to set up your instance.
Enabling debug mode
-------------------
.. _debugmode:
.. note:: Do not enable this for production! This can create security problems and is only meant for debugging and development!
To disable JavaScript and CSS caching debugging has to be enabled in :file:`core/config/config.php` by adding this to the end of the file::
DEFINE('DEBUG', true);
