Orbiter (JavaScript Client)

Installing Hosted Orbiter

To host Orbiter on your own website, follow these steps.

Step 1: Download Orbiter

Download the latest build of Orbiter here:

http://www.unionplatform.com/releases/orbiter/latest

Step 2: Unzip Orbiter

Unzip the Orbiter file that you downloaded in Step 1.

In the unzipped Orbiter folder, you'll find two JavaScript files: Orbiter_2.0.0.nnn_ReleaseName.js and Orbiter_2.0.0.nnn_ReleaseName_min.js. The nnn specifies the build number and ReleaseName specifies the type of release (Alpha, Beta, etc). The file ending in "_min" is a minified version of the Orbiter framework, suitable for production use. The file without "_min" is a development version of the Orbiter framework, intended for use during debugging.

Step 3: Post Orbiter on Your Web Site

Upload either the minified or development version of Orbiter from Step 2 to your website.

Step 4: Add Orbiter to Your Web Page

Load Orbiter from your website into your web page. For example, if you posted Orbiter to http://example.com/Orbiter_2.0.0.123_Release.js, you could load it into a web page by adding the following code to the page's <head> tag:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://example.com/Orbiter_2.0.0.123_Release.js"></script>
