Ghost Build Status

Ghost is a free, open, simple blogging platform that's available to anyone who wants to use it. Lovingly created and maintained by John O'Nolan + Hannah Wolfe + an amazing group of contributors.

Visit the project's website at http://ghost.org!

Full documentation is available at http://docs.ghost.org.

Getting Involved

Want to report a bug, request a feature, or help us build or translate Ghost? Check out our in depth guide to Contributing to Ghost. We need all the help we can get! You can also join in with our community to keep up-to-date and meet other Ghosters.

Getting Started

There are two main ways to get started with Ghost, take care to use the method which best suits your needs.

Please note - the downloadable zip files we provide on Ghost.org are pre-built packages designed for getting started quickly. Cloning from the git repository requires you to install several dependencies and build the assets yourself.

Getting Started Guide for Bloggers

If you just want to get a Ghost blog running in the fastest time possible, this method is for you.

For detailed instructions for various platforms visit the Ghost Installation Guide. If you get stuck, help is available on our forum.

  1. Install Node.js - Ghost requires Node v0.10.*
  2. Download the latest Ghost package from Ghost.org. If you cloned the GitHub repository you should follow the instructions for developers.
  3. Create a new directory where you would like to run the code, and unzip the package to that location.
  4. Fire up a terminal (or node command prompt in Windows) and change directory to the root of the Ghost application (where config.example.js and index.js are)
  5. run npm install --production to install the node dependencies. If you see error Error: ENOENT on this step, make sure you are in the project directory and try again.
  6. To start ghost, run npm start
  7. Visit http://localhost:2368/ in your web browser or go to http://localhost:2368/ghost to log in

Check out the Documentation for more detailed instructions, or get in touch via the forum if you get stuck.

Getting Started Guide for Developers

If you're a theme, app or core developer, or someone comfortable getting up and running from a git clone, this method is for you.

If you clone the GitHub repository, you will need to build a number of assets, such as SASS and JavaScript templates. This requires you to have Ruby and a number of other pre-requisites. Full instructions can be found in the Contributing Guide under the heading "Working on Ghost Core".

Check out the Documentation for more detailed instructions, or get in touch via the forum if you get stuck.

Updating with the latest changes

Documentation on updating can be found in the Ghost Guide

Logging in For The First Time

Once you have the Ghost server up and running, you should be able to navigate to http://localhost:2368/ghost/ from a web browser, where you will be prompted for a login.

  1. Click on the "register new user" link
  2. Enter your user details
  3. Return to the login screen and use those details to log in.

Note - this is still very alpha. Not everything works yet.

Versioning

For transparency and insight into our release cycle, and for striving to maintain backward compatibility, Ghost will be maintained according to the Semantic Versioning guidelines as much as possible.

Releases will be numbered with the following format:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>-<build>

Constructed with the following guidelines:

  • A new major release indicates a large change where backwards compatibility is broken.
  • A new minor release indicates a normal change that maintains backwards compatibility.
  • A new patch release indicates a bugfix or small change which does not affect compatibility.
  • A new build release indicates this is a pre-release of the version.
