Acilos, your private social valet - This app allows you to interact with social networks. Acilos can run locally or in the cloud and is accessible via desktop and mobile with a responsive interface. Thank you for choosing to be a part of acilos, we appreciate your support.

Getting Started

To get started using the app there are few requirements and steps. You will need to install the following:

  1. Apache/HTTPD - apt-get install apache/httpd

  2. Install PHP apt-get install php

  3. Download Composer

  4. Download the acilos tarball

  5. Untar/install in project code in a location so that the apache webroot points at PATH/acilos/src

  6. From the acilos directory, run - make install - to download other dependencies, including DojoToolkit, nerveTattoo ES Client, AWS-client, and others.

  7. From the acilos/src directory run - sudo sh start.sh - which will set up the data mining cronjobs, the cronManager shell scripts, start elasticsearch, and give all subsequent files and folders permissions.

  8. Go to main domain page (http://YourDomain.com/) and you will be taken to the credentials page where you can follow our walkthroughs on setting up developer apps and adding in their key/secrets to the credentials page. After that is done you will be taken to login.php where you should log in normally with your account and begin using the app.

Setting up apps is the most laborious part of the installation procedure and some services to require you to add a phone number. Any number of apps can be added initially (from 1-4) and more can be added from within the app from the settings->manage accounts tab. Please follow our walkthrough for a more in depth guide of this process

Amazon Instances

Acilos is also available to install as an AMI from the Amazon AWS console that will launch the app on a t1.micro instance from your AWS Console. The Images are still in Beta and are updated frequently.
