cli: fix 'front-end-build' on Windows (Issue #332)
On Windows, the command 'npm' is actually 'npm.cmd', a script and not a PE
executable. 'subprocess' will not resolve 'npm' into 'npm.cmd', while it
would resolve e.g. 'git' into 'git.exe', as the latter _is_ a PE
executable.
One solution is to change all references to the problematic scripts by
adding the '.cmd' extension explicitly, but this would not be compatible
with UNIX systems and thus require special handling.
On Windows, the problem can be solved by passing 'shell=True' to subprocess.
On UNIX, we don't need shell=True and prefer shell=False.
A solution that fits both cases is 'shell=kallithea.is_windows'.
Note: on Windows, next to the 'npm.cmd' file (and same for license-checker
etc.) there is also a file 'npm' (without extension). It is a shell script
(interpreter /bin/sh) for use on Windows with mingw/msys/cygwin. This script
will nevertheless never be used by the standard Windows command prompt and
is not used by Kallithea.

Troubleshooting
===============
:Q: **Missing static files?**
:A: Make sure either to set the ``static_files = true`` in the .ini file or
double check the root path for your http setup. It should point to
for example:
``/home/my-virtual-python/lib/python2.7/site-packages/kallithea/public``
|
:Q: **Can't install celery/rabbitmq?**
:A: Don't worry. Kallithea works without them, too. No extra setup is required.
Try out the great Celery docs for further help.
|
:Q: **Long lasting push timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a longer timeout in your proxy/fcgi settings. Timeouts
are caused by the http server and not Kallithea.
|
:Q: **Large pushes timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a proper ``max_body_size`` for the http server. Very often
Apache, Nginx, or other http servers kill the connection due to to large
body.
|
:Q: **Apache doesn't pass basicAuth on pull/push?**
:A: Make sure you added ``WSGIPassAuthorization true``.
|
:Q: **Git fails on push/pull?**
:A: Make sure you're using a WSGI http server that can handle chunked encoding
such as ``waitress`` or ``gunicorn``.
|
:Q: **How can I use hooks in Kallithea?**
:A: It's easy if they are Python hooks: just use advanced link in
hooks section in Admin panel, that works only for Mercurial. If
you want to use Git hooks, just install th proper one in the repository,
e.g., create a file `/gitrepo/hooks/pre-receive`. You can also use
Kallithea-extensions to connect to callback hooks, for both Git
and Mercurial.
|
:Q: **Kallithea is slow for me, how can I make it faster?**
:A: See the :ref:`performance` section.
|
:Q: **UnicodeDecodeError on Apache mod_wsgi**
:A: Please read: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi/#if-you-get-a-unicodeencodeerror.
|
:Q: **Requests hanging on Windows**
:A: Please try out with disabled Antivirus software, there are some known problems with Eset Antivirus. Make sure
you have installed the latest Windows patches (especially KB2789397).
