Installation
============
There are two possible options for installation right now:
1) Run directly from the checkout (development and evaluation)
2) Install in /opt + /srv and configure to run via apache (production)
The first option is attractive to anyone who just wants to try it out without
any hassle. The second option should be used if you plan on having a
continuous service.
Running directly from a checkout
================================
There is very little you have to do, assuming you already have a checkout (if
you are reading this online and have bazaar installed you can get the latest
stable source directly from trunk with `bzr get lp:launch-control') you only
need to make sure you have required dependencies (see README)
From within the source tree issue the following commands:
1) ./dashboard_server/manage.py syncdb
2) ./dashboard_server/manage.py runserver
Then open your favourite browser and point it at http://localhost:8000/
Installation in /opt + /srv
===========================
The following script is suitable for installation in /opt (code & settings)
and /srv (data). Tthe script is meant to be read and executed manually, you
need to interact with some steps
# Setup space for code and data and fetch latest tree
sudo mkdir -p /opt/dashboard/
sudo mkdir -p /srv/dashboard/media
sudo chown www-data.www-data /srv/dashboard/
sudo bzr get lp:launch-control/0.1 /opt/dashboard/stable
# Configure web server and dashboard for production deployment
sudo cp /opt/dashboard/stable/dashboard_server/local_settings.py.example /opt/dashboard/stable/dashboard_server/local_settings.py
# Things to do here:
# 1) specify system administrators
# 2) set SECRET_KEY to a random string
# 3) configure database settings (optional)
# 4) confirm installation and data paths (optional)
sudo $EDITOR /opt/dashboard/stable/dashboard_server/local_settings.py
# Note: here the system will interact with your database, if you configured
# something else than the default (sqlite) you must ensure that appropriate
# permissions are granted in advance.
# Note: if this is your first installation you will be prompted to create an
# administrator account. You should do so now. If you miss this step somehow
# you can issue 'createsuperuser' (instead of syncdb) command later.
sudo -u www-data /opt/dashboard/stable/dashboard_server/manage.py syncdb
# Tweak to your preference, default is to have a *:80/dashboard/ virtual host
# Most likely you will want to change this, note that you _MUST_
# change local_settings.py if you want to choose another location for
# the dashboard (eg http://hostname/ vs http://hostname/dashboard/)
sudo cp /opt/dashboard/stable/dashboard_server/apache.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/dashboard
sudo $EDITOR /etc/apache2/sites-available/dashboard
# Enable dashboard app and restart apache
sudo a2ensite dashboard
sudo service apache restart
First run
=========
Now go to http://your-site/dashboard/admin and sign-in with the username and
password you provided at syncdb or createsuperuser step. Before the system can
be used you must create an anonymous bundle stream. You can do this by
selecting "Bundle Streams" "Add" and "Save" from the admin panel.
