OpenStack Dashboard plugin for Trove project
============================================
.. image:: https://governance.openstack.org/tc/badges/trove-dashboard.svg
:target: https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/tags/index.html
How to use with Horizon on server:
----------------------------------
Use pip to install the package on the server running Horizon. Then either copy
or link the files in trove_dashboard/enabled to
openstack_dashboard/local/enabled. This step will cause the Horizon service to
pick up the trove plugin when it starts.
How to use with devstack:
-------------------------
Add the following to your devstack ``local.conf`` file::
enable_plugin trove-dashboard git://git.openstack.org/openstack/trove-dashboard
To run unit tests:
------------------
::
./run_tests.sh
Editing Code
------------
Apache
~~~~~~
Make a change to trove-dashboard then goto to the horizon directory and
compress the code with django and then restart apache.::
# rsync code to /opt/stack/trove-dashboard
# copy or link files from trove-dashboard/enabled/* to horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled/
cd /opt/stack/horizon
python manage.py compress
python manage.py collectstatic --noinput
sudo service apache2 restart
Django
~~~~~~
You can also speed up development time using the django test server instead of
apache.::
/opt/stack/horizon/run_tests.sh --runserver
If you set COMPRESS_ENABLED and COMPRESS_OFFLINE to False in local_settings.py
that allows you to bypass the compress and collectstatic as well.
Settings
~~~~~~~~
The use of a cross-process cache such as Memcached is required.
Install Memcached itself and a Memcached binding such as python-memcached.
For a single horizon instance use the CACHES setting like the example below.::
CACHES = {
'default': {
'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache',
'LOCATION': '127.0.0.1:11211',
},
}
For multiple horizon instances behind a load balancer configure each instance
to use the same cache like the example below.::
CACHES = {
'default': {
'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache',
'LOCATION': [u'10.2.100.133:11211', u'10.2.100.134:11211'']
},
}
NOTE:
=====
As of the Mitaka release, the dashboard for trove is now maintained outside of
the Horizon codebase, in this repository.
