Build Notes

Configure Virtual Machine

Create a new virtual machine; configure for 1 processor, 512GB RAM, 20GB monolithic elastic hard drive. Install TurnKey Core Lucid 11.0.

Initial bash Script

Note: BZR/Launchpad info is deprecated. Please use GitHub. Thanks Jacob, 26/11/12 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 \

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 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 here.
