storyboard/doc/source/install/development.rst
Richard Jones 8b72c7cf96 Switch to "serve" verb, and a minor clean up.
This is the documentation fix for change 133192.
Additionally, I have replaced a few errant tabs with spaces, per
Yolanda's request.

================================================
Installing and Running the Development Version
================================================
Storyboard has two components: this API server, and the
Javascript-based web client.
Launching the development VM
============================
StoryBoard has certain server dependencies which are often complicated to
install on any development environment. To simplify this,
we've provided a vagrantfile which includes all required services.
1. Install [vagrant](https://www.vagrantup.com/)
2. Install [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/)
3. Run `vagrant up` in the storyboard root directory.
If you choose to go this route, the appropriate configuration values in
`storyboard.conf` will be as follows::
...
[notifications]
rabbit_host=127.0.0.1
rabbit_login_method = AMQPLAIN
rabbit_userid = storyboard
rabbit_password = storyboard
rabbit_port = 5672
rabbit_virtual_host = /
...
[database]
connection = mysql://storyboard:storyboard@127.0.0.1:3306/storyboard
...
Note that the VM will attempt to bind to local ports 3306, 5672,
and 15672. If those ports are already in use, you will have to modify the
vagrant file and your configuration to accommodate.
This VM has also been set up for unit tests.
Installing the API server
=========================
1. To start the API server, make sure you have the following packages installed
locally:
* libpq-dev
* libmysqlclient-dev
2. Clone storyboard::
git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack-infra/storyboard
cd storyboard
3. Add MySQL user and create database (not necessary if using VM)::
mysql -u $DB_USER -p$DB_PASSWORD -e 'DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS storyboard;'
mysql -u $DB_USER -p$DB_PASSWORD -e 'CREATE DATABASE storyboard;'
4. Copy the sample configuration file::
cp ./etc/storyboard.conf.sample ./etc/storyboard.conf
5. Edit ``./etc/storyboard.conf`` and set the ``connection`` parameter in
the ``[database]`` section.
6. Install the correct version of tox. Latest tox has a bug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-ci/+bug/1274135::
pip install --upgrade "tox>=1.6,<1.7"
7. Upgrade DB schema to the latest version::
tox -e venv "storyboard-db-manage --config-file ./etc/storyboard.conf upgrade head"
8. Start the API server::
tox -e venv "storyboard-api --config-file ./etc/storyboard.conf"
Installing the Javascript-based web client
==========================================
1. To build and start the web client, you will need either of these
dependency sets installed locally:
* *Option 1:*
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* NodeJS v0.10.29 or newer
* NPM v1.3.10 or newer
(Ubuntu Trusty packages are sufficient, even though they indicate an older
version).
* *Option 2:*
* GCC 4.2 or newer
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* GNU Make 3.81 or newer
* libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only)
2. Clone storyboard::
git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack-infra/storyboard-webclient
cd storyboard-webclient
3. Run a local development server, which uses the localhost API::
tox -egrunt_no_api serve
4. Run a local development server, which uses the production API::
tox -egrunt_no_api serve:prod
Optional steps: Seed database with base data
============================================
1. If you want to define superusers in the database, copy
``./etc/superusers.yaml.sample`` to ``./etc/superusers.yaml`` and
define a few superuser IDs.
2. Enable the superusers in the database::
tox -e venv "storyboard-db-manage --config-file ./etc/storyboard.conf load_superusers ./etc/superusers.yaml"
3. If you want to quickly set up a set of projects and project groups in the
database, copy ``./etc/projects.yaml.sample`` to ``./etc/projects.yaml``
and define a few projects and project groups.
4. Create the projects and projectgroups in the DB::
tox -e venv "storyboard-db-manage --config-file ./etc/storyboard.conf load_projects ./etc/projects.yaml"
