5 Tazpanel is the SliTaz Control Panel, a web interface which lets you manage the
|
paul@52
|
6 full system in a radically simple way. The output xHTML code is valid xHTML 5
|
pankso@112
|
7 and all theming is done with standard CSS 3. TazPanel is published under a
|
pankso@112
|
8 BSD License.

11 Use it!

|
12 ------
|
pankso@44
|
13 You can clone the tazpanel repo into /var/www/tazpanel and work on this
|
paul@52
|
14 copy or clone it somewhere else and 'make install'. After, add tazpanel to
|
pankso@44
|
15 your /etc/hosts, type './tazpanel start' to start the server and go to the
|
paul@204
|
16 URL: http://tazpanel:82. Panel user and password are defined in the
|
paul@204
|
17 httpd.conf and default is root:root

21 ----
|
paul@52
|
22 TazPanel has been coded from the beginning with gettext support. Please
|
pankso@19
|
23 forget 'echo' and use gettext, but remember that gettext "" is equivalent
|
paul@204
|
24 to echo -n. All scripts use the same TEXTDOMAIN and the same pot files, and
|
paul@204
|
25 all translations go in the po/ folder. To start a new translation please
|
pankso@27
|
26 use msginit from the pot file directory. Example for French/France
|
pankso@27
|
27 locale (fr_FR):
|
pankso@27
|
28
|
pankso@27
|
29 $ msginit -l fr_FR -o fr.po -i tazpanel.pot
|
pankso@27
|
30
|
paul@82
|
31 To update all translations from a newly updated pot file:
|
pankso@27
|
32
|
pankso@27
|
33 $ make msgmerge
|
pankso@19

36 User interface

37 --------------
|
paul@204
|
38 If you develop an official SliTaz GUI for TazPanel, please follow the default
|
paul@204
|
39 style. If you need more CSS markup and you are not a coder, please ask an
|
paul@204
|
40 official developer for the best way to implement your idea. TazPanel is fully
|
paul@204
|
41 themable and more than one theme can be installed, this will allow us to make
|
paul@324
|
42 packages in a TazPanel style! All the GUI is done with xHTML 5 and CSS 3; some
|
paul@52
|
43 javascript can be used, but with precautions... one more time, it's better
|
paul@324
|
44 to check with a main contributor before adding too much stuff; the goal is,
|
paul@204
|
45 as for all the SliTaz projects: KISS

48 CGI template and files
|
pankso@19
|
49 ----------------------
|
paul@204
|
50 To start or test a new function with TazPanel you will find a file in
|
paul@52
|
51 utils/template.cgi that needs to be in the $PANEL root to work, all TazPanel
|
pankso@19
|
52 CGI scripts are in that location. If you think your code is too big to fit
|
paul@52
|
53 in another script you can eventually create a new CGI page and update all
|
paul@204
|
54 links, but please to talk to the AUTHORS beforehand.

66 For common functions have a look at lib/libtazpanel, where you may find functions
|
paul@82
|
67 you need already coded such as a xhtml_header to get the style header.html
|
paul@52
|
68 in your CGI script. For the loading message you can use loading_msg. When
|
pankso@46
|
69 cat is used: `gettext "Text to translate"`

72 Web server
|
pankso@0
|
73 ----------
|
paul@82
|
74 Tazpanel can run with the Busybox httpd applet or LightTPD and probably Apache.
|
paul@52
|
75 Start the webserver with a custom config to listen only on a local port for
|
paul@52
|
76 security reasons since we run as root to perform system actions, example:
|
pankso@0
|
77
|
pankso@193
|
78 # httpd -p 82 u root -c /etc/slitaz/httpd.conf
|
pankso@0
|
79
|
paul@204
|
80 Or use a tazpanel cmdline:
|
pankso@17
|
81
|
pankso@19
|
82 # ./tazpanel start
|
pankso@49
|
