web://keeper Demo


Instructions

  1. Download a PERFORCE client program from the PERFORCE Download Page. These are raw, binary files that need to have their execute permission turned on. If you plan to do anything more than what is described here, you might want to download the documentation for PERFORCE as well.

  2. Set the following environment variable:

    P4PORT: webkeeper.perforce.com:1667
    P4CLIENT: Your hostname. This can be at most 20 characters.

  3. Create your client with the "p4 client" command. This brings up a client definition in your editor. It is safe to take the defaults it presents, so you can just exit the editor and the new client definition will be saved.

  4. Add files with "p4 add filename...". These can be any kind of files, ASCII or binary.

  5. Submit them with "p4 submit". This also brings up your editor, but this time on a change submission form. The only thing you have to do is replace the last line with a reasonable description of what you are submitting.

  6. You can now view your documents in PERFORCE's demo web://keeper pages. Note that the path to your files is:
    http://webkeeper.perforce.com/hostname
    

    N.B. We reserve the right to remove documents stored on the web://keeper demo server at any time.
