Development of Debian Member Portfolio Service
|
||||
==============================================
|
||||
|
||||
The Debian Member Portfolio Service is implemented in `Python
|
||||
<http://www.python.org>`_ using the `Pylons
|
||||
<http://docs.pylonsproject.org/en/latest/docs/pylons.html>`_ web application
|
||||
framework.
|
||||
|
||||
The following sections describe how to setup a local development environment
|
||||
for the Debian Member Portfolio Service.
|
||||
|
||||
All instructions assume that you work on a Debian system. You should use Python
|
||||
2.7 for development.
|
||||
|
||||
Setup of a local development
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To start working on the source code you need to have `git`_ installed::
|
||||
|
||||
sudo aptitude install git
|
||||
|
||||
.. _git: http://www.git-scm.com/
|
||||
|
||||
The canonical git repository for the Debian Member Portfolio Service is
|
||||
available at http://debianstuff.dittberner.info/git/ddportfolioservice.git. To
|
||||
get a clone of the source code you change to a directory of your choice and
|
||||
invoke git clone::
|
||||
|
||||
cd ~/src
|
||||
git clone http://debianstuff.dittberner.info/git/ddportfolioservice.git
|
||||
|
||||
You should use `virtualenv`_ to separate the development environment from your
|
||||
system wide Python installation. You can install virtualenv using::
|
||||
|
||||
sudo aptitude install python-virtualenv
|
||||
|
||||
.. _virtualenv: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv
|
||||
|
||||
When you have :command:`virtualenv` installed you should create a virtual
|
||||
environment for Debian Member Portfolio Service development and install the
|
||||
requirements using `pip <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip>`_::
|
||||
|
||||
mkdir ~/.virtualenvs
|
||||
virtualenv --distribute ~/.virtualenvs/dmportfolio
|
||||
. ~/.virtualenvs/dmportfolio/bin/activate
|
||||
cd ~/src/ddportfolioservice
|
||||
pip install -r squeezereq.pip
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
The Debian Member Portfolio Service instance at http://portfolio.debian.net/
|
||||
is running on a Debian Squeeze server, therefore :file:`squeezereq.pip`
|
||||
contains dependency versions matching that Debian release.
|
||||
|
||||
The dependency download and installation into the virtual environment takes
|
||||
some time.
|
||||
|
||||
After you have your virtual environment ready you need to setup the project for
|
||||
development::
|
||||
|
||||
python setup.py develop
|
||||
|
||||
Debian Member Portfolio Service needs the JQuery JavaScript library to function
|
||||
properly. The JQuery library is not included in the git clone and must be
|
||||
copied into the subdirectory
|
||||
:file:`ddportfolioservice/public/javascript/jquery`. On Debian systems you can
|
||||
install the package libjs-jquery and place a symlink to the directory
|
||||
:file:`/usr/share/javascript` into :file:`ddportfolioservice/public`: ::
|
||||
|
||||
sudo aptitude install libjs-jquery
|
||||
ln -s /usr/share/javascript ddportfolioservice/public
|
||||
|
||||
Prepare for first startup
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The Debian Member Portfolio Service uses data from the Debian keyring to get
|
||||
information regarding PGP keys and names related to email addresses. Before you
|
||||
can run the service you need to fetch a copy of the keyring and prepare it for
|
||||
use by the code.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
You need rsync and gnupg for these tasks::
|
||||
|
||||
sudo aptitude install rsync gnupg
|
||||
|
||||
When you have both installed you can run::
|
||||
|
||||
. ~/.virtualenvs/dmportfolio/bin/activate
|
||||
./synckeyrings.sh
|
||||
python ddportfolioservice/model/keyringanalyzer.py
|
||||
|
||||
The first synchronizes the keyrings in :file:`$HOME/debian/keyring.debian.org`
|
||||
with files on the `keyring.debian.org <http://keyring.debian.org>`_ host. And
|
||||
the second generates a key/value database in
|
||||
:file:`ddportfolioservice/model/keyringcache` that is used by the code.
|
||||
|
||||
Run a development server
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Pylons uses PasteScript to run a development server. You can run a development
|
||||
server using::
|
||||
|
||||
paster serve --reload development.ini
|
||||
|
||||
The output of this command should look like the following::
|
||||
|
||||
Starting subprocess with file monitor
|
||||
Starting server in PID 31377.
|
||||
serving on http://127.0.0.1:5000
|
||||
|
||||
You can now access your development server at the URL that is printed by the command.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to stop the development server press :kbd:`Ctrl + C`.
