pan.do/ra - open media archive
== DEVELOPMENT ==
To setup a development instance of pan.do/ra,
you need python, bazaar, pip and virtualenv and several other python modules:
* Packages
apt-get install bzr git subversion mercurial \
python-setuptools python-pip python-virtualenv ipython \
python-dev python-imaging python-numpy python-psycopg2
bzr branch http://code.0x2620.org/pandora pandora
cd pandora
virtualenv .
pip -E . install -r requirements.txt
cd static
bzr branch http://code.0x2620.org/oxjs
* Additional pandora tools:
You need current versions of oxframe, oxtimeline installed.
For Ubuntu we provide these packages in a ppa:
apt-get install python-software-properties
add-apt-repository ppa:j/pandora
apt-get update
apt-get install oxframe oxtimeline
* Database
We use postgresql but other databases might also work
(make sure you have the python bindings installed).
create a postgresql database and adjust settings in local_settings.py
and run ./manage.py syncdb to populate the database
you might want to load example configurations from fixutes.
createdb -T template0 --locale=C --encoding=UTF8 -O pandora pandora
* RabbitMQ
For background tasks we use RabbitMQ, to install rabbitmq:
sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server
and create permissions according to BROKER_* in local_settings.py i.e.:
sudo rabbitmqctl add_user pandora box
sudo rabbitmqctl add_vhost /pandora
sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p /pandora pandora ".*" ".*" ".*"
* H264
to support h264 videos, install ffmpeg with x264 enabled,
install qt-faststart from (ffmpeg/tools)
set VIDEO_H264 = True in local_settings.py
Running developer environment:
in one terminal:
./manage.py runserver
and in another one:
./manage.py celeryd -Q default,encoding -B
Updating database:
right now database updates are not managed, each time you update to current bzr
you might have to update db tables too.
Use
./manage.py sqldiff appname
to check if changes exist and
./manage.py sqldiff appname | ./manage.py dbshell
to apply them.
This has to be done for all installed apps
== DEPLOYMENT ==
To run pan.do/ra in production, we use nginx, using apache2 is also possible.
* nginx setup
sudo apt-get install nginx
* apache2 setup
sudo apt-get install apache2-mpm-prefork
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-xsendfile
