backend: replace Pylons with TurboGears2
Replace the no-longer-supported Pylons application framework by TurboGears2
which is largely compatible/similar to Pylons.
Some interesting history is described at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TurboGears
Changes by Dominik Ruf:
- fix sql config in test.ini
Changes by Thomas De Schampheleire:
- set-up of test suite
- tests: 'fix' repo archival test failure
Between Pylons and TurboGears2, there seems to be a small difference in the
headers sent for repository archive files, related to character encoding.
It is assumed that this difference is not important, and that the test
should just align with reality.
- remove need to import helpers/app_globals in lib
TurboGears2 by default expects helpers and app_globals to be available
in lib. For this reason kallithea/lib/__init__.py was originally changed
to include those files. However, this triggered several types of
circular import problems. If module A imported something from lib (e.g.
lib.annotate), and lib.helpers imported (possibly indirectly) module A,
then there was a circular import. Fix this by overruling the relevant
method of tg AppConfig, which is also hinted in the TurboGears2 code.
Hereby, the include of something from lib does not automatically import
helpers, greatly reducing the chances of circular import problems.
- make sure HTTP error '400' uses the custom error pages
TurboGears2 does not by default handle HTTP status code
'400 (Bad Request)' via the custom error page handling, causing a
standard non-styled error page.
- disable transaction manager
Kallithea currently handles its own transactions and does not need the
TurboGears2 transaction manager. However, TurboGears2 tries to enable it
by default and fails, throwing an error during application initialization.
The error itself seemed to be harmless for normal application functioning,
but was nevertheless confusing.
- add backlash as required dependency: backlash is meant as the WebError
replacement in TurboGears2 (originally WebError is part of Pylons). When
debug==true, it provides an interactive debugger in the browser. When
debug==false, backlash is necessary to show backtraces on the console.
- misc fixes

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).
