   1 # Theming
   2
   3 ## Foreword
   4
   5 There are two ways of customizing how Shaarli looks:
   6
   7 1. by using a custom CSS to override Shaarli's CSS
   8 2. by using a full theme that provides its own RainTPL templates, CSS and Javascript resources
   9
  10 ## Custom CSS
  11
  12 Shaarli's appearance can be modified by adding CSS rules to:
  13
  14 - Shaarli < `v0.9.0`: `inc/user.css`
  15 - Shaarli >= `v0.9.0`: `data/user.css`
  16
  17 This file allows overriding rules defined in the template CSS files (only add changed rules), or define a whole new theme.
  18
  19 **Note**: Do not edit `tpl/default/css/shaarli.css`! Your changes would be overridden when updating Shaarli.

  21 ## Themes
  22
  23 Installation:
  24
  25 - find a theme you'd like to install
  26 - copy or clone the theme folder under `tpl/<a_sweet_theme>`
  27 - enable the theme:
  28     - Shaarli < `v0.9.0`: edit `data/config.json.php` and set the value of `raintpl_tpl` to the new theme name:
  29       `"raintpl_tpl": "tpl\/my-template\/"`
  30     - Shaarli >= `v0.9.0`: select the theme through the _Tools_ page

  54 ## Example installation: AlbinoMouse theme
  55
  56 With the following configuration:
  57
  58 - Apache 2 / PHP 5.6
  59 - user sites are enabled, e.g. `/home/user/public_html/somedir` is served as `http://localhost/~user/somedir`
  60 - `http` is the name of the Apache user
  61
  62 ```bash
  63 $ cd ~/public_html
  64
  65 # clone repositories
  66 $ git clone https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli.git shaarli
  67 $ pushd shaarli/tpl
  68 $ git clone https://github.com/alexisju/albinomouse-template.git
  69 $ popd
  70
  71 # set access rights for Apache
  72 $ chgrp -R http shaarli
  73 $ chmod g+rwx shaarli shaarli/cache shaarli/data shaarli/pagecache shaarli/tmp
  74 ```
  75
  76 Get config written:
  77 - go to the freshly installed site
  78 - fill the install form
  79 - log in to Shaarli
  80
  81 Edit Shaarli's [configuration](Shaarli-configuration):
  82 ```bash
  83 # the file should be owned by Apache, thus not writeable => sudo
  84 $ sudo sed -i s=tpl=tpl/albinomouse-template=g shaarli/data/config.php
  85 ```
