server path for mamp local server

Question

Im trying to setup the 140dev twitter api, and as part of the config i need to specify the server paths to certain files, they give the example of

// Directory for db_config.php
define('DB_CONFIG_DIR', '/var/www/html/140dev/db/');

and

// External URL for Javascript code in browsers to call the framework with Ajax
define('AJAX_URL', 'http://yoursite.com/140dev/');

But im not sure of what to replace these with as im running the test site using mamp locally under - http://localhost:8888/twitter-api/140dev/

any ideas what to put for the two above examples ?

Answer 1

After a bit of trail and error i found the solution, you need to set the server path to the location of mamp so you for the above examples you would write -

/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/140dev/db/

and

http://localhost:8888/140dev/
