## 1. Introduction

Leanote, not just a notebook!
![leanote.png](leanote.png "")

**Some Features**

* Knowledge: Manage your knowledge in leanote. leanote contains the tinymce editor and a markdown editor, just enjoy yourself writing.
* Share: Share your knowledge with your friends in leanote. You can invite your friends to join your notepad in the cloud so you can share knowledge.
* Cooperation: Collaborate with friends to improve your skills.
* Blog: Publish your knowledge and make leanote your blog.

## 2. Why we created leanote
To be honest, our inspiration comes from Evernote. We use Evernote to manage our knowledge everyday. But we find that:
* Evernote's editor can't meet our needs, it does not have document navigation, it does not render code properly (as a programmer, syntax highlighted code rendering is a basic need), it cannot resize images and so forth
* We like markdown, but Evernote does not support it.
* We want to share our knowledge, so all of us have our blogs (e.g. on Wordpress) and our Evernote accounts, but why can not those two be one!

### 3.1. Download leanote

Leanote V1.0-beta has been released. Binaries:

* Linux: [leanote-linux-x86_64.v1.0-beta.bin.tar.gz](https://github.com/leanote/leanote/releases/download/1.0-beta/leanote-linux-x86_64.v1.0-beta.bin.tar.gz)

### 3.2. Install MongoDB

Leanote is written in go using [revel](https://revel.github.io/) and [MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.org). Thus, you need to first install MongoDB.

For more tips please have a look at [our wiki](https://github.com/leanote/leanote/wiki/Install-Mongodb)

### 3.3. Import initial MongoDB data

The mongodb data is in `[PATH_TO_LEANOTE]/mongodb_backup/leanote_install_data`

```
$> mongorestore -h localhost -d leanote --directoryperdb PATH_TO_LEANOTE/mongodb_backup/leanote_install_data
```

The initial database contains two users:

```
user2 username: admin, password: abc123 (administrator)
user3 username: demo, password: demo@leanote.com (this user is for demo)
```

### 3.4. Configuration

Modify `[PATH_TO_LEANOTE]/conf/app.conf`. Available configuration options are:

db.username=
db.password=
```

``app.secret`` **required** **important**
The secret key used for cryptographic operations (revel.Sign).

FOR SECURITY, YOU MUST CHANGE IT!!

For more infomation please see `app/app.conf` and the [revel manuals](https://revel.github.io/)

## 2. 为什么我们要创建leanote?
说实话, 我们曾是evernote的忠实粉丝, 但是我们也发现evernote的不足:
* evernote的编辑器不能满足我们的需求, 不能贴代码(格式会乱掉, 作为程序员, 代码是我们的基本需求啊), 图片不能缩放.
* 我们是markdown的爱好者, 可是evernote竟然没有.
* 我们也想将知识公开, 所以我们有自己的博客, 如wordpress, 但为什么这两者不能合二为一呢?
* 还有...

### 3.2. 安装 MongodbDB

Leanote是由golang(使用[revel](https://revel.github.io/)框架 和 [MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.org)数据库), 你需要先安装Mongodb.
