MOStlyREST Requirements, Downloads, and Installation

1. Mambo 4.6.3+ (note: it was not coded for Joomla initially, but we have made some modifications and it does appear to be working fine in Joomla 1.0.x).
2. PHP 5+ (Will NOT work with PHP 4)
3. com_rest
4. com_rest_content (optional)
5. mod_rest (optional)

Installation

After double checking that your setup meets the stated requirements you are ready to being installation. Here are the installation steps:

1. Download and install the Brilap's MOStlyREST component (com_rest)
2. Optionally, download and install Brilap's MOStlyREST Content component (mod_rest_content). This is not required, but it does provide a RESTful interface for Mambo's com_content. It also serves as a great example for building your own RESTful components.
3. Optionally, download and install Brilap's MOStlyREST module (com_rest mod_rest). This is not required, but it does make things a bit easier for potential developers.

Note: Use Mambo's Universal Installer to install these extensions. This will create the necessary front-end/back-end component files and create the neccessary database tables. After installation you will need to adjust the Components settings to meet your needs. See this wiki page for more information.
