Darshan (A Scalable HPC I/O Characterization Tool) Data Visualization Tool
Requirement
- Framework: PHP + Apache Server + MySQL.
- A MySQL functionality enhancement UDF: https://github.com/infusion/udf_infusion
For Windows, you can install XAMPP (https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html) that includes all the above, for OS X install MAMP (https://www.mamp.info/en/).
Once you install MAMP/XAMPP, open it --> Preferences --> Ports --> Set Web & MySQL ports to 80 & 3306. If you use another port for Web (Apache Port & Nginx Port) then remember to put them in your link on localhost. For example: you set Apache Port & Nginx Port to 8080 then
Instead of using: http:https://localhost/DarshanVis/index.php/jobs/index?c=9
Your link should be: http:https://localhost:8080/DarshanVis/index.php/jobs/index?c=9
- IDE: Anything to help you code. Our suggestion: NetBeans
Installation
-
Clone the project on the htdocs directory (in your xampp/mamp installation): For example, if you install MAMP to /Applications you will clone the project in: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/
git clone https://github.com/Aleyasen/DarshanVis.git
-
Move htdocs/DarshanVis/yii.zip to htdocs/yii.zip. Unzip yii.zip
-
Check http:https://localhost/yii/requirements/ in your browser to check that your PHP version has all requirements for Yii framework.
Access data remotely
- Edit DarshanVis/protected/config/server.production.php:
return array(
// application components
'components' => array(
'db' => array(
'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=palm.cs.illinois.edu;dbname=mira_final',
'username' => 'huongluu',
'password' => '******', (we will send it to you)
),
),
);Note: you will need to be inside UIUC network to connect to this database
Access data locally: I will send you a dump file that you can import to your local MySQL server. First, create a new database (for example called darshanvis_db). Then import the dump file to this new database.
- Edit DarshanVis/protected/config/server.production.php:
return array(
// application components
'components' => array(
'db' => array(
'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=darshanvis_db',
'username' => 'your MySQL username',
'password' => 'your MySQL password',
),
),
);
