1. Download the Latest Version of PCR.
  2. Extract the zip file to your webserver
  3. Modify the pcr.xml configuration file located in the pcr/config folder to point to your database server.
  4. Create a new php file with the following code:

    <?php 
    $_SERVER['PCR'] = '/path/to/pcr/';
    
    set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . 
                     $_SERVER['PCR'] . PATH_SEPARATOR .
                     $_SERVER['PCR'] . 'PMs');
    
    function __autoload($className) {
      require_once "$className.php";
    }
    
    $credentials = new Credentials('mysql_username', 
                                   'mysql_password');
                                   
    $workspace = 'pcr'; //a workspace is the name of your 
                        //configuration file which is also 
                        //the name of the database you are 
                        //using
                          
    $session = Repository::login($credentials, $workspace);
    ?>

    This will set the PCR server variable and add the PCR library to your include path.

    Starting a session with the Credentials will create a table in your workspace.

  5. Now the PCR is ready for use.
