Atlantis Installer streamlines PHP-GTK2 apps installation through its user-friendly installation wizard.
Atlantis Installer is a user-friendly installation wizard designed to simplify the process of installing PHP-GTK2 applications on multiple platforms. This makes it a great alternative solution to using PEAR. One of the benefits of using Atlantis Installer is that you can build your application with the structure that you want and drop it as a single, neat package.
It's worth mentioning that while Atlantis Installer is not limited to installing PHP-GTK2 applications, users will need to install the PHP and GTK2 libraries beforehand. For non-PHP-GTK2 apps, the user must first install the Gnope package (Windows) or install PHP, GTK2, and the PHP module manually (Linux). However, if you're running PHP-GTK2 apps, you've probably already done this, and hopefully, Linux distributions will come prepared for PHP like most do with Perl and/or Python.
The standard setup of the installer is quite straightforward. Upon launching the application, the user is greeted with a welcome screen and prompted to click the next button. The installer then asks for the installation location, and the user can choose where they would like to install the software. The installation status is displayed in the output box as the software is installed.
It's worth noting that users can configure the installer to their preferences. This includes setting default paths and changing the look of the installer. Users can also perform additional tasks during the installation step, such as chmod or rename a file, by using the scripting feature.
One of the main highlights of Atlantis Installer is that it automatically checks whether it can install to the directory specified by the user. If it can, it creates the necessary directory structure, saving users time and making the installation process smoother.
To use Atlantis Installer, users must have GTK+ 2.10.0, PHP (Version 5 branch), and PHP-GTK 2.0.0alpha installed on their systems.
Recent updates to Atlantis Installer include a rebuilt user interface to accommodate larger fonts in Gtk2 and basic documentation added to the package.
