To install the libraries, use the usual mantra:
perl Makefile.PL make make test make install
Create a database for the system, run the create_database.mysql script and make a user for the clients:
$ mysqladmin -u root create physstat $ mysql -u root physstat < create_database.mysql $ mysql -u root mysql > GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON physstat.* to 'physstat'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'YOURPASSWORD'; > flush privileges;
Included in the package is a sample client, physstat, that does basic database display / addition. See the README for how to use the client. Additionally, see the README file for other means of acquiring data.
