Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/iRail/hyperRail.git

Run composer update. If you do not yet have composer, get it here: http://getcomposer.org

Optional, but can be useful.

chmod -R 777 app/storage

In /app/config/app.php set the following to your personal hostname/preferences:

'url' => 'http://irail.dev',    // with http
'url-short' => 'irail.dev',     // without http

• npm install
• npm run update-stations
• bower install
• grunt

Usually you should be ready to get started by visiting the hostname you have set up. If it does not work, log an issue. We'll help you out and fix the documentation for everyone else.

In case you just want to update the stations list to the latest version, run: npm run update-stations
