.. _dev-quickstart: ===================== Developer Quick-Start ===================== This is a quick walkthrough to get you started developing code for Magnum. This assumes you are already familiar with submitting code reviews to an OpenStack project. .. seealso:: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/GerritWorkflow Install prerequisites:: # Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt-get install python-dev libssl-dev python-pip libmysqlclient-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libpq-dev git git-review libffi-dev gettext python-tox # Fedora/RHEL: sudo yum install python-devel openssl-devel python-pip mysql-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel postgresql-devel git git-review libffi-devel gettext ipmitool # openSUSE/SLE 12: sudo zypper install git git-review libffi-devel libmysqlclient-devel libopenssl-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel postgresql-devel python-devel python-flake8 python-nose python-pip python-setuptools-git python-testrepository python-tox python-virtualenv gettext-runtime sudo easy_install nose sudo pip install virtualenv setuptools-git flake8 tox testrepository If using RHEL and yum reports “No package python-pip available” and “No package git-review available”, use the EPEL software repository. Instructions can be found at ``_. You may need to explicitly upgrade virtualenv if you've installed the one from your OS distribution and it is too old (tox will complain). You can upgrade it individually, if you need to:: sudo pip install -U virtualenv Magnum source code should be pulled directly from git:: # from your home or source directory cd ~ git clone https://git.openstack.org/stackforge/magnum cd magnum Set up a local environment for development and testing should be done with tox:: # create a virtualenv for development tox -evenv -- echo 'done' Activate the virtual environment whenever you want to work in it. All further commands in this section should be run with the venv active:: source .tox/venv/bin/activate All unit tests should be run using tox. To run Magnum's entire test suite:: # run all tests (unit and pep8) tox To run a specific test, use a positional argument for the unit tests:: # run a specific test for Python 2.7 tox -epy27 -- test_conductor You may pass options to the test programs using positional arguments:: # run all the Python 2.7 unit tests (in parallel!) tox -epy27 -- --parallel To run only the pep8/flake8 syntax and style checks:: tox -epep8 When you're done, deactivate the virtualenv:: deactivate ====================================== Exercising the Services Using DevStack ====================================== DevStack does not yet have Magnum support. It is, however, necessary to develop Magnum from a devstack environment at the present time. Magnum depends on Nova, Heat, and Neutron to create and schedule virtual machines to simulate bare-metal. For milestone #2 we intend to introduce support for Ironic deployment of baremetal nodes. Clone DevStack:: cd ~ git clone https://github.com/openstack-dev/devstack.git devstack Create devstack/localrc with minimal settings required to enable Heat and Neutron.:: cd devstack cat >localrc </etc/magnum/magnum.conf <
