Get Data

iBrowser can be downloaded as an self contained (Virtual Box) virtual machine using BitTorrent Sync and this read-only key: key (860Mb). A manual can be found here

The data used in the iBrowser paper can be downloaded using BitTorrent Sync using the following read-only key: key.

The data consists of:

Interface

The Web User Interface (Web UI) works in Chrome 37+ and Firefox 33+. The UI behaviour in iExplorer is erratic and therefore we discourage the use of this web browser. We haven't tested Opera and Safari web browsers, feedback is welcome.

Installation

Docker

for standalone:

docker run -it --rm \
-v $PWD/data:/var/www/ibrowser/data \
-v $PWD/access.log:/var/log/apache2/access.log \
-v $PWD/error.log:/var/log/apache2/error.log \
-p 127.0.0.1:10000:10000 \
--name ibrowser \
sauloal/introgressionbrowser

for local copy,run:

git clone [email protected]:sauloal/introgressionbrowser.git

cd introgressionbrowser

docker run -it --rm \
-v $PWD:/var/www/ibrowser \
-v $PWD/data:/var/www/ibrowser/data \
-v $PWD/access.log:/var/log/apache2/access.log \
-v $PWD/error.log:/var/log/apache2/error.log \
-p 127.0.0.1:10000:10000 \
--name ibrowser \
sauloal/introgressionbrowser_local

Open your browser at 127.0.0.1:10000

replace 127.0.0.1 for 0.0.0.0 in the command line if you want others in your network to be able to access your iBrowser instance.

replace the -it for -d to run in the background

Virtual Machine

VirtualBox

The virtual machine should run automatically. The only procedure is to share your data folder (in your host computer) as "DATA". A step-by-step manual can be found here. In case you want/need to do it manually, please find bellow instructions:

wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.3.6/VBoxGuestAdditions_4.3.6.iso
mkdir vbox
mount VBoxGuestAdditions_4.3.6.iso vbox
cd vbox
./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
cd ..
umount vbox
edit /etc/fstab adding
  data /media/data vboxsf re 0 0
mount -a
ls /media/data

VMWare

currently there's a bug in vmware which doesn't allows for the mounting of shared folders. For this reason vmware is not currently supported

mkdir /mnt/cdrom
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
mkdir ~/vm
cd ~/vm
tar xvf /dev/cdrom/VMwareTools-9.6.1-1378637.tar.gz
cd vmware-tools-distrib
./vmware-install.pl -d
cd ../..
rm -rf vm
ls /mnt/hgfs/data

Manually

Getting the code
