Orchard module for the City of Santa Monica Form 100 workflow

Form100

An Orchard (1.8.1) module to model the City of Santa Monica's Form 100 workflow.

Initial Development Setup

There are a few steps required to setup an environment for development/testing of this module.

1. Obtain a copy of the Orchard 1.8.1 source, and extract it into a local working directory.

2. From that local working directory, open a command prompt and change into the Modules directory

   cd Orchard.Source.1.8.1\src\Orchard.Web\Modules

3. Inside Modules, clone the git repo down

   git clone [e-mail]:thekaveman/Form100.git CSM.Form100

Note the name of the local repo is CSM.Form100. This is important, it must match the name of the module given in the Module manifest

4. Open the Orchard.Source.1.8.1\src\Orchard.sln file in VS2013, and "Add Existing Project..." CSM.Form100.csproj to the solution. (Build the solution to ensure this worked).

5. Optional: Copy the custom setup recipe to the Orchard.Setup module to configure your Orchard instance with the required and otherwise useful modules enabled.

assuming we're still at the root of the CSM.Form100 module

    copy Recipes\DevSetup.recipe.xml ..\Orchard.Setup\Recipes\DevSetup.recipe.xml

After completing the above steps, you will have a local development environment for this module. Run the Orchard site and enable the CSM.Form100 module as you would any other.
