regluit ======= A 'monolithic' alternative to [unglu](http://github.com/gluejar/unglu) for the unglue.it website. regluit is essentially a Django project that contains three applications: `frontend`, `api` and `core` that can be deployed and configured on as many ec2 instances that are needed to support traffic. The key difference with [unglu](http://github.com/gluejar/unglu) is that the `frontend` app is able to access database models from `core` in the same way that the `api` is able to...which hopefully should simplify some things. Develop ------- Here are some instructions for setting up regluit for development on an Ubuntu system. If you are on OS X see notes below to install python-setuptools in step 1: 1. `aptitude install python-setuptools git python-lxml` 1. `sudo easy_install virtualenv virtualenvwrapper` 1. `git clone git@github.com:Gluejar/regluit.git` 1. `cd regluit` 1. `mkvirtualenv regluit` 1. `pip install -r requirements_versioned.pip` 1. `add2virtualenv ..` 1. `cp settings/dev.py settings/me.py` 1. edit `settings/me.py` and set `EMAIL_HOST_USER` and `EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD` to your gmail username and password, if you want to see that registration emails will work properly. 1. edit `settings/me.py` and look at the facebook, twitter and google auth settings to enable federated logins from those sites 1. `echo 'export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=regluit.settings.me' >> ~/.virtualenvs/regluit/bin/postactivate` 1. `deactivate ; workon regluit` 1. `django-admin.py syncdb --migrate --noinput` 1. `django-admin.py celeryd --loglevel=INFO` start the celery daemon to perform asynchronous tasks like adding related editions, and display logging information in the foreground.` 1. `django-admin.py celerybeat -l INFO` to start the celerybeat daemon to handle scheduled tasks. 1. `django-admin.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000` (you can change the port number from the default value of 8000) 1. point your browser at http://localhost:8000/ Production Deployment --------------------- Below are the steps for getting regluit running on EC2 with Apache and mod_wsgi, and talking to an Amazon Relational Data Store instance. Instructions for setting please are slightly different. 1. create an ubuntu ec2 instance (e.g, go http://alestic.com/ to find various ubuntu images) 1. `sudo aptitude update` 1. `sudo aptitude upgrade` 1. `sudo aptitude install git-core apache libapache2-mod-wsgi mysql-client python-virtualenv python-mysqldb redis-server python-lxml postfix python-dev` 1. `sudo mkdir /opt/regluit` 1. `sudo chown ubuntu:ubuntu /opt/regluit` 1. `cd /opt` 1. `git config --global user.name "Ed Summers"` 1. `git config --global user.email "ehs@pobox.com"` 1. `ssh-keygen` 1. add `~/.ssh/id\_rsa.pub` as a deploy key on github https://github.com/Gluejar/regluit/admin/keys 1. `git clone git@github.com:Gluejar/regluit.git` 1. `cd /opt/regluit` 1. create an Amazon RDS instance 1. connect to it, e.g. `mysql -u root -h gluejardb.cboagmr25pjs.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com -p` 1. `CREATE DATABASE unglueit CHARSET utf8;` 1. `GRANT ALL ON unglueit.\* TO ‘unglueit’@’ip-10-244-250-168.ec2.internal’ IDENTIFIED BY 'unglueit' REQUIRE SSL;` 1. update settings/prod.py with database credentials 1. `virtualenv ENV` 1. `source ENV/bin/activate` 1. `pip install -r requirements_versioned.pip` 1. `echo "/opt/" > ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages/regluit.pth` 1. `django-admin.py syncdb --migrate --settings regluit.settings.prod` 1. `sudo mkdir /var/www/static` 1. `sudo chown ubuntu:ubuntu /var/www/static` 1. `django-admin.py collectstatic --settings regluit.settings.prod` 1. `sudo ln -s /opt/regluit/deploy/regluit.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/regluit` 1. `sudo a2ensite regluit` 1. `sudo a2enmod ssl rewrite` 1. `cd /home/ubuntu` 1. copy SSL server key to `/etc/ssl/private/server.key` 1. copy SSL certificate to `/etc/ssl/certs/server.crt` 1. `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart` 1. `sudo adduser --no-create-home celery --disabled-password --disabled-login` (just enter return for all?) 1. `sudo cp deploy/celeryd /etc/init.d/celeryd` 1. `sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/celeryd` 1. `sudo cp deploy/celeryd.conf /etc/default/celeryd` 1. `sudo mkdir /var/log/celery` 1. `sudo mkdir /var/run/celery` 1. `sudo chown celery:celery /var/log/celery /var/run/celery` 1. `sudo /etc/init.d/celeryd start` 1. `sudo cp deploy/celerybeat /etc/init.d/celerybeat` 1. `sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/celerybeat` 1. `sudo cp deploy/celerybeat.conf /etc/default/celerybeat` 1. `sudo mkdir /var/log/celerybeat` 1. `sudo chown celery:celery /var/log/celerybeat` 1. `sudo /etc/init.d/celerybeat start` ## setup to enable ckeditor to work properly 1. `mkdir /var/www/static/media/` 1. `sudo chown ubuntu:www-data /var/www/static/media/` Updating Production -------------------- 1. Study the latest changes in the master branch, especially keep in mind how it has [changed from what's in production](https://github.com/Gluejar/regluit/compare/production...master). 1. Update the production branch accordingly. If everything in `master` is ready to be moved into `production`, you can just merge `master` into `production`. Otherwise, you can grab specific parts. (How to do so is something that should probably be described in greater detail.) 1. Login to unglue.it and run [`/opt/regluit/deploy/update-prod`](https://github.com/Gluejar/regluit/blob/master/deploy/update-prod) OS X Developer Notes ------------------- To run regluit on OS X you should have XCode installed Install virtualenvwrapper according to the process at http://blog.praveengollakota.com/47430655: 1. `sudo easy\_install pip` 1. `sudo pip install virtualenv` 1. `pip install virtualenvwrapper` Edit or create .bashrc in ~ to enable virtualenvwrapper commands: 1. `mkdir ~/.virtualenvs` 1. Edit .bashrc to include the following lines: export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs source your_path_to_virtualenvwrapper.sh_here In the above web site, the path to virtualenvwrapper.sh was /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh In Snow Leopard, this may be /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh Configure Terminal to automatically notice this at startup: Terminal –> Preferences –> Settings –> Shell Click "run command"; add `source ~/.bashrc` If you get 'EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found' edit the line ~/.virtualenvs/regluit/build/MySQL-python/setup_posix.py 1. mysql_config.path = "mysql_config" to be (using a path that exists on your system) 1. mysql_config.path = "/usr/local/mysql-5.5.20-osx10.6-x86_64/bin/mysql_config" Selenium Install --------------- Download the selenium server: http://selenium.googlecode.com/files/selenium-server-standalone-2.5.0.jar Start the selenium server: 'java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.5.0.jar'
