HackMD 0.3.3
===
[](https://gitter.im/hackmdio/hackmd?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)
HackMD is a realtime collaborative markdown notes on all platforms.
Inspired by Hackpad, but more focusing on speed and flexibility.
Still in early stage, feel free to fork or contribute to this.
Thanks for your using! :smile:
Prerequisite
---
- Node.js 0.10.x or up (not test in version 4)
- PostgreSQL 9.3.x or 9.4.x
- MongoDB 3.0.x
Get started
---
1. Download a release and unzip or clone into a directory
2. Enter the directory and type `npm install && bower install`, will install all the dependencies
3. Install PostgreSQL and MongoDB (yes, currently we need both)
4. Import database schema, see more on below
5. Setup the configs, see more on below
6. Setup environment variables, which will overwrite the configs
7. Run the server as you like (node, forever, pm2)
Import database schema
---
The notes are store in PostgreSQL, the schema is in the `hackmd_schema.sql`
To import the sql file in PostgreSQL, type `psql -i hackmd_schema.sql`
The users, temps and sessions are store in MongoDB, which don't need schema, so just make sure you have the correct connection string.

From 0.3.2, we start support operational transformation.
Which make concurrent editing safe and not break up other users' operations.
Even more, now can show other clients' selections.
