TransparentRETS™ is avaliable for use on Open-Realty® websites that we do not host. This is the ideal solution for anyone already running their own server or who already has a great web hosting account and wants to have the ability to import listngs from their MLS's RETS server into Open-Realty®, without paying monthly fees.
DIY Package:
This option is for mid to advanced users who are very
comfortable with installing and modifying PHP applications on a website.
With this option you are purchasing a perpetual license to use our software. but
you are also then completely responsible for all configuration and setup
of the software to work with your MLS RETS Server.
Server Requirments
First, please bear in mind that importing data from an outside source like a RETS server should be something that you absolutely understand will be a mission-critical process essential for the correct operation of your web site. Therefore, it is unwise to attempt to use the TransaprentRETS addon with giveaway or super-budget web hosting accounts that are not reliable or are overshared. The larger the amount of listings and photos per listing that the TransparentRETS add-on has to manage, the more server resources it will require from a web hosting account.
The TransparentRETS add-on requires the following:
- Unix/Apache (POSIX) based web hosting platform.
- Fresh install of Open-Realty v2.3.5 or greater.
- PHP 5 (with the following modules)
- PHP SimpleXML
- PHP CURL
- PHP OpenSSL
- MySQL 4.1+
- PHP ZEND Optimizer
- Ability to create CRON jobs that can use CURL (optional, for automating all processes)
- Ability to change your Apache Timeout Value
- Ability to make outbound connections from your server to HTTP, HTTPS, and RETS servers.
