[[TOC]] = Build Notes = == Configure Virtual Machine == Create a new virtual machine; configure for 1 processor, 512GB RAM, 20GB monolithic elastic hard drive. Install [http://sourceforge.net/projects/turnkeylinux/files/turnkey-core/ TurnKey Core Lucid 11.0]. == Initial bash Script == Automate as much as possible with a bash script called install-dev-env. Use sftp client and upload to new machine; login to the machine and chmod +x install-dev-env. Execute the script with ./install-dev-env, for example. {{{ #!/bin/bash -ex #set hostname HOSTNAME=eden-dev echo "$HOSTNAME" > /etc/hostname sed -i "s|127.0.1.1 \(.*\)|127.0.1.1 $HOSTNAME|" /etc/hosts #install apt-get update DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get -y \ -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confdef \ -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold \ install lxde irssi sudo python-lxml python-reportlab python-xlwt python-shapely bzr libgeos-3.1.0 eclipse xorg firefox firebug #install python-tweepy echo -e "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chris-lea/python-tweepy/ubuntu lucid main \n deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/chris-lea/python-tweepy/ubuntu lucid main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sources.list apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys C7917B12 apt-get update apt-get install python-tweepy -y #addusers and groups useradd web2py addgroup admin useradd -G web2py,admin -m -p eden dev #bzr web2py and eden bzr branch -r 2717 lp:~mdipierro/web2py/devel /home/web2py/ bzr branch -r 1585 lp:sahana-eden /home/web2py/applications/eden #Set up web2py service cp /home/web2py/scripts/web2py.ubuntu.sh /etc/init.d/web2py chmod +x /etc/init.d/web2py update-rc.d web2py defaults #Copy Deployment-Templates cp /home/web2py/applications/eden/deployment-templates/models/000_config.py /home/web2py/applications/eden/models/000_config.py cp /home/web2py/applications/eden/deployment-templates/cron/crontab /home/web2py/applications/eden/cron/crontab #Change ownership for web2py chown -R web2py:web2py /home/web2py #Setup BZR Pull Script for web2py echo "#! /bin/bash -ex \n cd /home/web2py \n if [ -z "$1" ]; then \n bzr pull \n else bzr pull $1 \N fi" > /home/dev/update_web2py chmod +x /home/dev/update_web2py #setup BZR Pull Script for Eden echo "#! /bin/bash -ex \n cd /home/web2py/applications/eden \n if [ -z "$1" ]; then \n bzr pull \n else bzr pull $1 \N fi" > /home/dev/update_eden chmod +x /home/dev/update_eden }}} The some of the rest could be scripted using sed; it has not been. Looking for a way to automate configuration of Eclipse. == Set Web2py as Service == Change daemon directory to /home/$name and change user to root in /etc/init.d/web2py; add -i 0 127.0.0.1 to arguments. {{{ vim /etc/init.d/web2py }}} == Customize Configuration Console == Add web2py, http://$ipaddr:8000 and add Eden, http://$ipaddr:8000/eden to the services list: {{{ vim /etc/confconsole/services.txt }}} == Configure 000_config.py == Set edited to True (case sensitive): {{{ vim /home/web2py/applications/eden/models/000_config.py }}} == Configure the Dev Env == {{{ shutdown -r now }}} Login as dev (password eden) {{{ startx }}} === Configure Firefox === Start Firefox. Check http://localhost:8000/eden to ensure Eden works. In Firefox, set Eden as homepage. Set bookmarks. === Configure irssi === Open terminal. Start irssi In irssi, enter the following (docs [http://irssi.org/documentation/startup#c3 here]): {{{ /SERVER ADD -auto freenode irc.freenode.net 6667 /NETWORK ADD freenode /CHANNEL ADD -auto #sahana-eden freenode }}} === Configure Eclipse === Configure Eclipse according to docs [DeveloperGuidelines/Eclipse here].
