Amora

Amora is a semantic search engine where anyone can define anything anywhere - a technical prowess that is achieved by relying on semantic web technologies. Everything in Amora is Linked Data or in other words a distributed key-value store where every key-value pair is associated with an unique identifier in form of an URI. Amora was created to provide an IDE and tooling research platform whose ambitious goal it is to supersede existing tools by a new being.

So far, there is nothing here yet - this is not even alpha level yet. There is only documentation on how to use it by myself.

Setup notes:

• Electron needs to be installed, a pre-built binary can be found here.

• Neovim needs to be installed too. It can be done by executing the make_neovim script.

• The URL amora.center should redirect to localhost. Add the following entry to /etc/hosts:

  127.0.0.1       amora.center
  

  This way, we can use URLs to amora.center in our code and don't need to worry about Internet loookups. Furthermore, we also want to specify a port redirect from port 80 to the port where the server is listening to. This can be achieved by running the script ./configure_ip_tables as root.

Important sbt commands:

• backend/reStart - Launches server application. After that the run_electron executable can be run.
• firefoxPlugin/genFirefoxPlugin - Generates the firefox plugin. It can be tested with run_firefox_plugin.
