====== Installation: Required Modules ======

[[installation:requirements|Overall installation requirements]]

This is information on the required PHP/Apache modules that GetSimple uses:

  * [[http://www.php.net/manual/en/simplexml.installation.php|SimpleXML]] - This module is necessary as GetSimple currently relies on XML to store it's data. 
    * **If you do not have this installed, you will not be able to use GetSimple.**
  * [[http://www.php.net/manual/en/zip.installation.php|ZipArchive]] - This is only needed if you want to take [[how_to:backup_website|backups]] of your website. 
    * As of GS v3.0, if you do not have this installed, your backups will try to use the [[http://php.net/manual/en/book.zlib.php|zlib library]] (it will create .tar.gz files instead of .zip)
  * [[http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html|Apache mod_rewrite]] - This is only needed if you want to use [[:pretty_urls|FancyURLs]] (set within the control panel's 'settings' page.)
  * [[http://www.php.net/manual/en/curl.setup.php|Curl]] - Curl is needed to connect to our API to check for GetSimple updates. 
    * This means: you don't really need it, but if you want to install it, see [[http://www.php.net/manual/en/curl.setup.php|here]]. (Debian install via apt-get install php5-curl)
  * [[http://www.php.net/manual/en/image.installation.php|GD Library]] - This module is needed in order to create thumbnails on uploaded images.
