* Fix conf files to reflect module renaming
Python module was renamed budget → ihatemoney (see #243 and 6923367
).
Now, "budget" relates to nothing.
* Harmonize `APPLICATION_ROOT` doc with other settings
* Fix link markup
* Switch documentation to recomend pip over git
- Update installation instruction
- Clearly separate dev setup from installation
- Some rewordings/section-ization by the way
* Add a hint on how to find the static path
This is a downside on the pip choice over git for installation.
We will have to ease that a bit. By doc or by code, before next release.
* Make the nginx deployment doc more accurate
* Add a big fat warning about SECRET_KEY in doc

Requirements
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
«Ihatemoney» depends on:
|
|
|
|
* **Python**: either 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 will work.
|
|
* **A Backend**: to choose among MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite or Memory.
|
|
* **Virtualenv** (recommended): `virtualenv` package under Debian/Ubuntu.
|
|
|
|
We recommend to use `virtualenv <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv>`_ but
|
|
it will work without if you prefer.
|
|
|
|
If wondering about the backend, SQLite is the simplest and will work fine for
|
|
most small to medium setups.
|
|
|
|
Prepare virtualenv (recommended)
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
Choose an installation path, here `/home/john/ihatemoney`.
|
|
|
|
Create a virtualenv::
|
|
|
|
virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 /home/john/ihatemoney
|
|
|
|
Activate the virtualenv::
|
|
|
|
source /home/john/ihatemoney/bin/activate
|
|
|
|
.. note:: You will have to re-issue that ``source`` command if you open a new
|
|
terminal.
|
|
|
|
Install
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Install the latest release with pip::
|
|
|
|
pip install ihatemoney
|
|
|
|
Test it
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Once installed, you can start a test server::
|
|
|
|
ihatemoney runserver
|
|
|
|
And point your browser at `http://localhost:5000 <http://localhost:5000>`_.
|
|
|
|
Deploy it
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
Now, if you want to deploy it on your own server, you have many options.
|
|
Two of them are documented at the moment.
|
|
|
|
*Of course, if you want to contribute another configuration, feel free to open a
|
|
pull-request against this repository!*.
|
|
|
|
With Apache and mod_wsgi
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Install Apache and mod_wsgi - libapache2-mod-wsgi(-py3) for Debian based and mod_wsgi for RedHat based distributions -
|
|
2. Create an Apache virtual host based on the sample configuration file in `conf/apache-vhost.conf`
|
|
3. Adapt it to your paths and specify your virtualenv path if you use one
|
|
4. Activate the virtual host if needed and restart Apache
|
|
|
|
With Nginx, Gunicorn and Supervisord
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
.. note:: For the 3 configuration files mentioned below, you will need to fix
|
|
the paths to reflect yours.
|
|
|
|
1. Copy *conf/gunicorn.conf.py* to */etc/ihatemoney/gunicorn.conf.py*
|
|
2. Copy *conf/supervisord.conf* to */etc/supervisor/conf.d/ihatemoney.conf*
|
|
3. Copy *conf/nginx.conf* with your nginx vhosts [#nginx-vhosts]_
|
|
4. Reload both nginx and supervisord. It should be working ;)
|
|
|
|
Don't forget to set the right permission for your files !
|
|
|
|
.. [#nginx-vhosts] typically, */etc/nginx/conf.d/* or
|
|
*/etc/nginx/sites-available*, depending on your distribution.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
ihatemoney relies on a configuration file. If you run the application for the
|
|
first time, you will need to take a few moments to configure the application
|
|
properly.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: You **must** customize the ``SECRET_KEY`` on a production installation.
|
|
|
|
+----------------------------+---------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| Setting name | Default | What does it do? |
|
|
+============================+===========================+========================================================================================+
|
|
| SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI | ``sqlite:///budget.db`` | Specifies the type of backend to use and its location. More information |
|
|
| | | on the format used can be found on `the SQLAlchemy documentation |
|
|
| | | <http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/core/engines.html#database-urls>`_. |
|
|
+----------------------------+---------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| SECRET_KEY | ``tralala`` | The secret key used to encrypt the cookies. **This needs to be changed**. |
|
|
+----------------------------+---------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| MAIL_DEFAULT_SENDER | ``("Budget manager", | A python tuple describing the name and email adress to use when sending |
|
|
| | "budget@notmyidea.org")`` | emails. |
|
|
+----------------------------+---------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| ACTIVATE_DEMO_PROJECT | ``True`` | If set to `True`, a demo project will be available on the frontpage. |
|
|
+----------------------------+---------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| | ``""`` | If not empty, the specified password must be entered to create new projects. |
|
|
| ADMIN_PASSWORD | | To generate the proper password HASH, use ``ihatemoney generate_password_hash`` |
|
|
| | | and copy its output into the value of *ADMIN_PASSWORD*. |
|
|
+----------------------------+---------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| APPLICATION_ROOT | ``""`` | If empty, ihatemoney will be served at domain root (e.g: *http://domain.tld*), if set |
|
|
| | | to ``"foo"``, it will be served from a "folder" (e.g: *http://domain.tld/foo*) |
|
|
+----------------------------+---------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
|
|
In a production environment
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Make a copy of ``ihatemoney/default_settings.py`` and name it ``ihatemoney.cfg``.
|
|
Then adjust the settings to your needs and move this file to
|
|
``/etc/ihatemoney/ihatemoney.cfg``.
|
|
|
|
This is the default path of the settings but you can also place it
|
|
elsewhere and pass the configuration file path to the application using
|
|
the IHATEMONEY_SETTINGS_FILE_PATH environment variable.
|
|
|
|
e.g.::
|
|
|
|
$ export IHATEMONEY_SETTINGS_FILE_PATH="/path/to/your/conf/file.cfg"
|
