************ Installation ************ Prerequisites ============= Get Mnemosyne:: $ git clone https://github.com/johnnykv/mnemosyne.git Install python requirements:: $ pip install -r requirements.txt Configuration ============= Copy default configuration:: cp mnemosyne.cfg.dist mnemosyne.cfg While testing it is recommended to simplify the configuration as much as possible, example:: [webapi] # 0.0.0.0 = listen on all interfaces host = 0.0.0.0 port = 8181 [mongodb] database = mnemosyne [hpfriends] ident = secret = host = hpfriends.honeycloud.net port = 20000 channels = dionaea.capture [file_log] enabled = True file = mnemosyne.log [loggly_log] enabled = False token = Running ======= First off, you need to start mongod, afterwards you can start mnemosyne:: $ python runner.py 2013-09-09 21:44:58,541 (root) Starting mnemosyne.
