The attached api-demo_v3.tar.gz tar file contains a small PHP / Javascript application that demonstrate how to connect to the Nimbula Director API from PHP.

You can follow those instructions to install this web application on an Ubuntu 10.04 server:

1. Starting from an Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 system, install the following packages: (Might be similar for other Debian based distributions)
sudo aptitude install php5-cgi php5-curl nginx

2. Extract attached archive in the root folder, all paths are absolute to /
cd / && sudo tar -zxf api-demo_v3.tar.gz

3. Set up Nginx
sudo rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/demo /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/demo
sudo service nginx restart

4. Add the following line to /etc/rc.local
/etc/init.d/php-fastcgi start
and run:
sudo /etc/init.d/php-fastcgi start

5. Edit /var/www/api-demo.php and change the $api variable to point to the Nimbula Director API of your cluster.
6. Point your browser at the IP address of the server running the web API.
