The following files and directories exist in the source tree :
 - mktreasurer: main program, installed in /usr/bin. When run generate
   all the pages.
 - tmpl/: directory containing template for all the pages. Installed as
   /usr/share/mga-treasurer/tmpl.

-------

For testing, you can set the environement variable MGATRES_CONF to the
path of a default configuration file that will be used instead of
/usr/share/mga-treasurer/config.


JSON files and http headers
---------------------------

So that the json files can be used from pages on other domains with
XMLHttpRequest, the http header Access-Control-Allow-Origin needs to be
set. See this page for details :
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTTP/Access_control_CORS

To add the header for .json files, you can use something like this in
apache configuration, inside the VirtualHost definition :

        <FilesMatch "\.json$">
                Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
        </FilesMatch>
