Development configuration for Protwis on linux servers using Puppet

Instructions

Tested on Ubuntu 14.04 and CentOS 7 (may need tweaks for other systems).

WARNING: Running this script changes the configuration of your system and may override important settings.

Install Git and Puppet

Debian based systems (Debian, Ubuntu)

sudo apt-get -y install git puppet

RedHat based systems (RedHat, CentOS, Fedora)

sudo yum -y install epel-release git
sudo yum -y install puppet

Create and change to /protwis directory

sudo mkdir /protwis
sudo chown $USER /protwis
cd /protwis

Clone the protwis repository

git clone https://github.com/protwis/protwis sites/protwis

Clone this repository and name it "conf" (the name is important)

git clone --recursive https://github.com/protwis/protwis_dev_conf.git conf

Change to the cloned repo directory

cd conf

Run with Puppet

sudo puppet apply --modulepath protwis_puppet_modules manifests/default.pp

Reload your shell

Close you current shell and open a new one to reload environment variables.

Start the Django development webserver

This example runs the server on port 8000, but you can also use another port. If you want to access the server on a different machine, make sure the port you are using is open.

cd /protwis/sites/protwis
/env/bin/python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

You're all set up. The webserver will now be accessible from http://localhost:8000
