This is an alpha software, so be ready for possible API changes.

Dependencies

Netspire is written in Erlang and requires Erlang/OTP platform to be installed.

As per the Wikipedia:

Erlang is a general-purpose concurrent programming language and runtime system. It was designed by Ericsson to support distributed, fault-tolerant, soft-real-time, non-stop applications.

Installation

Currently Netspire runs on Linux, BSD based systems and Mac OS X. Clone this repo or download an archive, then execute:

$ autoconf

$ ./configure

$ make (On BSD systems you must use 'gmake' instead 'make')

$ make install

Future plans

There are serious plans to make a billing system on top of this core with PostgreSQL backend as well as awesome Apache CouchDB with Web-based admin interface. Currently all these modules are under development.
