This is a subset mirror of theGoogle LibrariesAPI CDN meant to be servedfrom your local development machine when internet access is lacking.

Step 0: Clone this repository

git clone git://github.com/rmm5t/googleapis-mirror.git

Step 1: Runrake sync to download a copy of all the libraries listed inlibraries.txt.

You'll probably want to run this step before you lose internet access.

Step 2: Runsudo rake serve or justsudo rake (serve is the defaulttask). This binds a new virtual IP address (172.16.88.88) to the loopbackinterface, and mapsajax.googleapis.com to it using the OS X DirectoryService. It also starts a web server bound to the new virtual IP address suchthathttp://ajax.googleapis.com/ behaves like a local mirror for the GoogleLibraries.

NOTE: You must run this as sudo. To stop the local web server mirror, justCtrl-C the rake process.

If you aren't on OS X, you can alternatively map ajax.googleapis.com to127.0.0.1 using/etc/hosts or any equivalent. You will also need to create avirtual host on your local web server to serve ajax.googleapis.com. Here's anexample for Apache:

<VirtualHost *:80>  ServerName ajax.googleapis.com  DocumentRoot "/path/to/googleapis-mirror"  <Directory "/path/to/googleapis-mirror">     Options Indexes     Order allow,deny    Allow from all  </Directory></VirtualHost>
