Setting up a development Environment
The Overview project has posted a four (4) step process to setup an Overview development environment (Github):
- Install PostgreSQL, a Java Development Kit and Git.
git clone https://github.com/overview/overview-server.git
cd overview-server
./run
That last command will take a long time — maybe an hour as it downloads and compiles all required components. It will be clear when it’s ready.
Overview lowers the bar for swimming in a sea of documents. Not quite big data style oceans of documents but goodly sized seas of documents.
Documents that are delivered in a multitude of formats, usually as inconveniently as possible.
The hope being too many documents for timely/economical review will break any requester before they find embarrassing data.
I prefer to disappoint that hope.
Don’t you?
