DIRS
====
dbgenerator: stuff to generate a pgo.db file
template: the initial template contributed by cla
web: web-frontend to the pgo.db file
pkgcore: pkgcore version in case you don't have one set up
and use PYTHONPATH=.
snakeoil: same as pkgcore, both are taken from post-0.3.1 HEAD
etc: Minimal /etc/ used to tell pkgcore where the PORTDIR is, and the
base make.conf/global/profile settings.
todo: TODO list for the site. Look here before suggesting something.
REQUIREMENTS
============
dbgenerator:
------------
- up-to-date portage tree
(non-unionfs'ed as it might give weird mtimes)
- Python 2.5 with sqlite or Python 2.4 with pysqlite2
- optional: pkgcore and snakeoil (both shipped)
frontend:
---------
CherryPy 3.0.2 or later
Genshi 0.4.3 or later
- Python 2.5 with sqlite or Python 2.4 with pysqlite2
it can be used both standalone or together with mod_python
Database Generation Time:
=========================
Jokey:
------
3GHz P4, UDMA100 HDD, partly cluttered fs
DB generation takes about 3 minutes
robbat2, infra:
---------------
- 2x Dual-core Opteron 2210 (4 cores total)
- 4Gb RAM, cluttered FS
- RAID1 WD2500JS
Initial DB generation: 3 minutes
Subsequent passes: 25 seconds
GETTING IT GOING
================
APPROOT = the directory you checked out of Git
0) Add the following to your /etc/portage/package.keywords:
=dev-python/genshi-0.4*
=dev-python/cherrypy-3.0*
dev-python/dbutils
dev-python/formencode
>=sys-apps/pkgcore-0.4.7.13
1) emerge =dev-python/genshi-0.4* =dev-python/cherrypy-3.0* dbutils formencode sys-apps/pkgcore-0.4.7.13
2) emerge pysqlite || emerge mysql-python
3) 'cp etc/database_config.py{.example,}'.
Edit 'etc/database_config.py'
If you want to use SQLite, set mode='sqlite' and
choose a path for the file.
If you want to use MySQL, edit the other settings as needed.
If you are lazy, you can use a single MySQL user, but
you should seperate RW and RO users for security!
4) 'cp etc/make.conf{.example,}'.
Edit 'etc/make.conf'
If you want a copy of the tree in a specific location, set
it here.
5) ln -s "$PORTDIR" etc/portdir
6) Generate the initial database:
cd $APPROOT && \
time /bin/sh ./run-update.sh
7) start CherryPy standalone:
cd $APPROOT && PYTHONPATH=. python web/controller.py
this should give you something like
"HTTP Serving HTTP on http://0.0.0.0:8081/"
8) now point a webbrowser at http://localhost:8081/
and you should see the packages.gentoo.org site
PRIVILEGE SEPARATION
====================
You can run packages2 with privileges seperated to enhance security.
1. You should have the following users:
webuser (eg: apache, lighttpd)
pkguser (eg: gpackages)
realuser (eg: bob)
2. You should have the following groups:
pkggroup (eg: gpackages)
3. Place all 3 users into the group.
4. chown -R realuser:pkggroup $APPROOT
5. chown -R pkguser:pkggroup $PORTDIR
(the PORTDIR in packages2 etc/make.conf!)
6. chmod o-rwx,g+rX $APPROOT $PORTDIR
