10 STEP GUIDE

For your own Project do the following:

1. Create a new directory in "pages", for example "pages/visu" or "pages/YOURPROJECT".
   This is your individual project-directory where you may work.
   Copy all files from "pages/_template" to your project-directory
2. Check the config.php and set the "config_pages" to "YOURPROJECT"
3. Set the "config_driver" to your backend-environment
   • linknx: for linxknx and eibd environment
   • smarthome.py: for SmartHome.py environment
   • domotiga: for Domotiga environment
   • eibd: for direct access
   • offline: only for testing, all GADs will be stored in a textfile ("temp/offline_YOURPROJECT.var")
4. Create a new page in your project-directory, for example "mypage.html"
   Note: Do not use "base.html, basic.html, device.html", these are system pages
5. Fill the page with your preferred content and widgets
6. If you need to change the design, use a "visu.css" - stylesheet file in your project-directory.
   If you want to develop your own widgets, also place them in your directory.
   Name the javascript-file (if you need one) to "visu.js" and it will be included automatically.
   Name the file with the widgets e.g. "custom.html"
7. Test your page with: http://localhost/smartVISU/index.php?page=mypage
   Note: replace "localhost" with the hostname from your server
8. Create all pages you need
9. At the end of your project set "config_cache" to "true" to speed up your smartVISU
10. Enjoy smartVISU!
