Added extra column to backups tables (under instances and under backups) that will show Yes / No if the backup is incremental (ie it has a parent) When you drill down into backup details we now display the name of the backup parent if this is an incremental backup. This is displayed as a link with the backup name so it is navigable When you create a new backup you can now specify an existing backup to use as the parent Note: At some point we should probably have the create backup dialog filter the available parents based on the current selection for the instance. However, so far I haven't worked out how to make the backup parent choiceField change dynamically based on user updates to the instance choiceField Change-Id: I8bc70805aae50a019da3915f8e7aff25f6a7bbc6 Implements: blueprint trove-incremental-backup
Horizon (OpenStack Dashboard)
Horizon is a Django-based project aimed at providing a complete
OpenStack Dashboard along with an extensible framework for building new
dashboards from reusable components. The
openstack_dashboard module is a reference implementation of
a Django site that uses the horizon app to provide
web-based interactions with the various OpenStack projects.

Getting Started
For local development, first create a virtualenv for the project. In
the tools directory there is a script to create one for
you:
$ python tools/install_venv.pyAlternatively, the run_tests.sh script will also install
the environment for you and then run the full test suite to verify
everything is installed and functioning correctly.
Now that the virtualenv is created, you need to configure your local
environment. To do this, create a local_settings.py file in
the openstack_dashboard/local/ directory. There is a
local_settings.py.example file there that may be used as a
template.
If all is well you should able to run the development server locally:
$ tools/with_venv.sh ./manage.py runserveror, as a shortcut:
$ ./run_tests.sh --runserverSetting Up OpenStack
The recommended tool for installing and configuring the core OpenStack components is Devstack. Refer to their documentation for getting Nova, Keystone, Glance, etc. up and running.
Note
The minimum required set of OpenStack services running includes the following:
- Nova (compute, api, scheduler, network, and volume services)
- Glance
- Keystone
Optional support is provided for Swift.
Development
For development, start with the getting started instructions above. Once you have a working virtualenv and all the necessary packages, read on.
If dependencies are added to either horizon or
openstack_dashboard, they should be added to
requirements.txt.
The run_tests.sh script invokes tests and analyses on
both of these components in its process, and it is what Jenkins uses to
verify the stability of the project. If run before an environment is set
up, it will ask if you wish to install one.
To run the unit tests:
$ ./run_tests.shBuilding Contributor Documentation
