======================

news

----

- small css updated

fixes

-----

- fixed #53 python2.5 incompatible enumerate calls

 paster make-index production.ini --repo-location=<location for repos> 

for full index rebuild You can use::

 paster make-index production.ini -f --repo-location=<location for repos>

building index just for chosen repositories is possible with such command::

 paster make-index production.ini --repo-location=<location for repos> --index-only=vcs,rhodecode

In order to do periodical index builds and keep Your index always up to date.

It's recommended to do a crontab entry for incremental indexing. 

An example entry might look like this

::

 /path/to/python/bin/paster /path/to/rhodecode/production.ini --repo-location=<location for repos> 

When using incremental (default) mode whoosh will check last modification date 

of each file and add it to reindex if newer file is available. Also indexing 

daemon checks for removed files and removes them from index. 

Sometime You might want to rebuild index from scratch. You can do that using 

the `-f` flag passed to paster command or, in admin panel You can check 

`build from scratch` flag.

Setting up LDAP support

-----------------------

RhodeCode starting from version 1.1 supports ldap authentication. In order

to use ldap, You have to install python-ldap package. This package is available

via pypi, so You can install it by running

::

 easy_install python-ldap

::

 pip install python-ldap

.. note::

   python-ldap requires some certain libs on Your system, so before installing 

   it check that You have at least `openldap`, and `sasl` libraries.

ldap settings are located in admin->ldap section,

Here's a typical ldap setup::

 Enable ldap  = checked                 #controls if ldap access is enabled

 Host         = host.domain.org         #actual ldap server to connect

 Port         = 389 or 689 for ldaps    #ldap server ports

 Enable LDAPS = unchecked               #enable disable ldaps

 Account      = <account>               #access for ldap server(if required)

 Password     = <password>              #password for ldap server(if required)

 Base DN      = uid=%(user)s,CN=users,DC=host,DC=domain,DC=org

`Account` and `Password` are optional, and used for two-phase ldap 

authentication so those are credentials to access Your ldap, if it doesn't 

support anonymous search/user lookups. 

Base DN must have %(user)s template inside, it's a placer where Your uid used

to login would go, it allows admins to specify not standard schema for uid 

variable

If all data are entered correctly, and `python-ldap` is properly installed

Users should be granted to access RhodeCode wit ldap accounts. When 

logging at the first time an special ldap account is created inside RhodeCode, 

so You can control over permissions even on ldap users. If such user exists 

already in RhodeCode database ldap user with the same username would be not 

able to access RhodeCode.

If You have problems with ldap access and believe You entered correct 

information check out the RhodeCode logs,any error messages sent from 

ldap will be saved there.

Setting Up Celery

-----------------

Since version 1.1 celery is configured by the rhodecode ini configuration files

simply set use_celery=true in the ini file then add / change the configuration 

variables inside the ini file.

Remember that the ini files uses format with '.' not with '_' like celery

so for example setting `BROKER_HOST` in celery means setting `broker.host` in

the config file.

In order to make start using celery run::

 paster celeryd <configfile.ini>

.. note::

   Make sure You run this command from same virtualenv, and with the same user

   that rhodecode runs.

Nginx virtual host example

--------------------------

Sample config for nginx using proxy::

 server {

    listen          80;

    server_name     hg.myserver.com;

    access_log      /var/log/nginx/rhodecode.access.log;

    error_log       /var/log/nginx/rhodecode.error.log;

    location / {

            root /var/www/rhodecode/rhodecode/public/;

            if (!-f $request_filename){

                proxy_pass      http://127.0.0.1:5000;

            }

            #this is important if You want to use https !!!

            proxy_set_header X-Url-Scheme $scheme;

            include         /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;  

    }

 }  

Here's the proxy.conf. It's tuned so it'll not timeout on long

pushes and also on large pushes::

    proxy_redirect              off;

    proxy_set_header            Host $host;

    proxy_set_header            X-Host $http_host;

    proxy_set_header            X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

    proxy_set_header            X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

    proxy_set_header            Proxy-host $proxy_host;

    client_max_body_size        400m;

    client_body_buffer_size     128k;

    proxy_buffering             off;

    proxy_connect_timeout       3600;

    proxy_send_timeout          3600;

    proxy_read_timeout          3600;

    proxy_buffer_size           8k;

    proxy_buffers               8 32k;

    proxy_busy_buffers_size     64k;

    proxy_temp_file_write_size  64k;

Also when using root path with nginx You might set the static files to false

in production.ini file::

  [app:main]

    use = egg:rhodecode

    full_stack = true

    static_files = false

    lang=en

    cache_dir = %(here)s/data

To not have the statics served by the application. And improve speed.

Apache virtual host example

---------------------------

Sample config for apache using proxy::

    <VirtualHost *:80>

            ServerName hg.myserver.com

            ServerAlias hg.myserver.com

            <Proxy *>

              Order allow,deny

              Allow from all

            </Proxy>

            #important !

            #Directive to properly generate url (clone url) for pylons

            ProxyPreserveHost On

            #rhodecode instance

            ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:5000/

            ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:5000/

            #to enable https use line below

            #SetEnvIf X-Url-Scheme https HTTPS=1

    </VirtualHost>
