Getting started with Seaside

Install Seaside

First you install the Seaside project. At the tODE shell prompt, execute:

project install --url=http://gsdevkit.github.io/GsDevKit_home/Seaside32.ston

This command downloads the project entry for Seaside3 and clones the Seaside project. The github repositories for the Zinc project, the web server of choice for GsDevKit and the gsApplicationTools project that provides support for starting and stopping Seaside server gems.

Load Seaside

Then you load the Seaside project using the project list menu item load, or by executing the following in the tODE shell:

project load --loads=`#('Welcome' 'Development' 'Zinc Project' 'Examples')` Seaside3

The mount command makes the Seaside tODE scripts directory available from with tODE as /home/seaside:

mount @/sys/stone/dirs/Seaside3/tode /home seaside

Finally make a backup of the system to preserve the work up to this point:

bu backup seaside.dbf

Creating a Seaside gem server

Load the Seaside GemStone Adaptors package by executing the following in the tODE shell:

project load --loads=`#('Seaside-GemStone-Adaptors-Zinc')` Seaside3

With seaside installed, you use the /home/seaside/gemServer script to register, start, and stop a Seaside gem server. The following tODE command defines a gemServer named seaside that will listen for HTTP requests on port 1750:

/home/seaside/gemServer --register=seaside --type=zinc --port=1750

The following tODE command starts up the gemServer named seaside:

/home/seaside/gemServer --start=seaside

At this point you can hit port 1750, to bring up the Seaside Welcome page:
