KJV - random Bible Verse generator for ColdFusion
Okay, right to the point: Download kjv.zip
Now for the explanation. If you work with CFML running on either ColdFusion or Blue Dragon, this application, named kjv, will generate a random verse from the King James Bible. Specifically designed to work for folks who use hosted accounts, kjv contains an init script that will create a database, and populate it with the King James Bible, all using basic SQL.
kjv supports both mySQL and Microsoft SQL Server; and works with both Windows and Linux.
Even if you don't want the random verse generator, kjv will provide you with a nice complete King James Bible in database format, arranged so that you can easily use it for other applications.
As you might have noticed, you can see a sample of kjv running at the top of this page. Each time the page reloads you get another verse.
At the moment you are reading the documentation for the app. The app itself is written in the Fusebox 3 style, so Fuseboxers will feel right at home. You can call it as a standalone appliction or as a cfmodule, as I am doing here.
Installation:
- Unzip the file, and upload the kjv folder to your webserver. You will need to edit the file fbx_Settings.cfm , which contain variables for accessing your DSN, your DSN username, and DSN password.
- After that, you need to run the script by accessing {your url}/kjv/index.cfm?fuseaction=init.home
- The instructions will be there. Have fun!
- King James Bible - Version used here in kjv originally obtained via working over the Access DB version available at htmlbible.com
