Tracker Development Virtual Env¶

Legacy Wiki Page

This page was migrated from the old MoinMoin-based wiki. Information may be outdated or no longer applicable. For current documentation, see python.org.

This page is derived from TrackerDevelopment.

Not only does this cover installing under a virtualenv, but it also covers installing Rietveld. That part is not entirely finished, however.

Before You Get Started¶

Prerequisites¶

Python 2.7 (or 3?)
pip (under same Python)
svn
postgresql 9 server (devel)
openssl (devel)
swig
patch
virtualenvwrapper (pip install virtualenvwrapper)

Will be Installed¶

psycopg2
beautifulsoup
m2crypto

Environment Variables¶

Set them however you like!

export WORKON_HOME=~/.envs
export PROJECT_DIR=~/projects
export MAIL_DOMAIN=spam.eggs
export TRACKER_HOST=localhost
export TRACKER_PORT=9999

virtualenvwrapper Initial Setup¶

echo "export WORKON_HOME=$WORKON_HOME" >> ~/.bashrc
mkdir -p $WORKON_HOME
source `which virtualenvwrapper.sh`

The Main Course¶

Initial Preparation¶

mkvirtualenv tracker  # leaves you in the virtual environment
pip install psycopg2
pip install beautifulsoup
pip install m2crypto  # http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7772965/
cd $VIRTUAL_ENV/build/m2crypto 
chmod u+x fedora_setup.sh
./fedora_setup.sh build
./fedora_setup.sh install
echo 'export PGDATA=$VIRTUAL_ENV/pg_data' >> $VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/postactivate

Set Up Postgresql¶

workon tracker
mkdir $PGDATA
pg_ctl initdb
# if needed, fix auth in $VIRTUAL_ENV/pg_data/pg_hba.conf
pg_ctl start
psql -c 'create user roundup' postgresql
psql -c 'alter user roundup with createdb' postgresql

Install Roundup¶

workon tracker
cd $PROJECT_DIR
svn co http://svn.python.org/projects/tracker
cd tracker/roundup-src
python setup.py install

Configure the Python-Dev Instance¶

workon tracker
cd $PROJECT_DIR/tracker/instances/python-dev
mkdir db
echo postgresql > db/backend_name
cp config.ini.template config.ini # and adjust settings
sed -i "s/localhost:9999/$TRACKER_HOST:$TRACKER_PORT/" config.ini
sed -i "s/#domain = NO DEFAULT/domain = $MAIL_DOMAIN/"
sed -i 's/\(def init(db):.*\)$/\1\n    return/' detectors/rietveldreactor.py
$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/roundup-admin -i `pwd` init

Fire It Up¶

workon tracker
cd $PROJECT_DIR/tracker/instances/python-dev
echo "export RU_INSTANCE=`pwd`" >> $VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/postactivate
echo "export RU_HOST=$TRACKER_HOST" >> $VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/postactivate
echo "export RU_PORT=$TRACKER_PORT" >> $VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/postactivate
echo '"alias start-roundup=$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/roundup-server -n $RU_HOST -p $RU_PORT python-dev=$RU_INSTANCE"' >> $VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/postactivate
echo '"alias admin-roundup=$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/roundup-admin -i $RU_INSTANCE"' >> $VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/postactivate
start-roundup # and point your browser to localhost:9999

Install Rietveld¶

This part isn’t working all the way, and is likely incorrect/missing pieces.

workon tracker
cd $PROJECT_DIR/tracker/instances/python-dev/rietveld
make all
cd $PROJECT_DIR/tracker/instances/python-dev/detectors
../scripts/initrietveld
