- PHP session support (for logging in, see [here](https://php.net/manual/en/session.installation.php) for more information)
- The following PHP extensions:
-`mbstring` (for utf8 string handling - currently **required**)
-`imagick` (for preview generation)
-`fileinfo` (for proper mime type checking of uploaded files)
-`zip` (for compressing exports)
-`intl` (for Unicode text normalization when searching and in the id index)
- Write access to Pepperminty Wiki's own folder (only for editing)
- Recommended: Block access to `peppermint.json`, where it stores it's settings
## Setup Instructions
1. Once you've ensured your web server meets the requirements, obtain a copy of Pepperminty Wiki (see _[Getting a copy](05-Getting-A-Copy.md)_).
2. Put the `index.php` file on your web server.
3. Navigate to Pepperminty Wiki in your web browser. If you uploaded the `index.php` to `wiki/` on your web server `bobsrockets.com`, then you should navigate to `bobsrockets.com/wiki/`.
4. See the [Configuring](#configuring) section for information on how to customise your installation, including the default login credentials.
5. Ensure you configure your web server to block access to `peppermint.json`, as this contains all your account details (including your hashed password!)
