sulfur

Media manager written for the WordPress.com & Jetpack REST API.

Displays all files uploaded to the connected blog and allows you to upload new ones.

Requirements

Sulfur is a standalone web application that sends requests to the WordPress API. So in order to run it, you only need two things:

1. Some kind of webserver. Apache/nginx/etc.
2. An application on developer.wordpress.com/apps.

Installation - Apache

1. git clone https://github.com/Automattic/sulfur (easiest to do this into Apache's document root).
2. Ensure the Apache user has access to the sulfur directory and all parent directories (chgrp -r www usually works).
3. Configure your webserver to serve it from your sulfur directory.

On development servers, you can fake the domain:

1. Set your hostfile to map sulfur.dev to 127.0.0.1 (or the IP of the server that will be running it).
2. Use a virtual host configuration so Apache knows you want "sulfur.dev" served from the sulfur directory.

Then, point your browser to the configured domain.

Application Setup

The application requires a callback URL in order to authenticate with WordPress.com. This can be localhost, or a fake domain, if you just want to test it out locally.

1. Create an app on developer.wordpress.com.
2. Set the Redirect URL to your app's URL (e.g. sulfur.dev).
3. Whitelist your domains in the JavaScript origins. Incluing https:// if applicable.
4. Edit app/config.js to include your app's Client ID from WordPress.com.
