Changelog

=========

1.4.1 (**2012-09-04**)

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

:status: in-progress

:branch: beta

news

++++

- always put a comment about code-review status change even if user send

  empty data 

- modified_on column saves repository update and it's going to be used

  later for light version of main page ref #500

- pull request notifications send much nicer emails with details about pull

  request

fixes

+++++

- fixed migrations of permissions that can lead to inconsistency.

  Some users sent feedback that after upgrading from older versions issues 

  with updating default permissions occurred. RhodeCode detects that now and

  resets default user permission to initial state if there is a need for that.

  Also forces users to set the default value for new forking permission.

=====

Setup

=====

Setting up RhodeCode

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

First, you will need to create a RhodeCode configuration file. Run the 

following command to do this::

    paster make-config RhodeCode production.ini

- This will create the file `production.ini` in the current directory. This

  configuration file contains the various settings for RhodeCode, e.g proxy 

  port, email settings, usage of static files, cache, celery settings and 

  logging.

Next, you need to create the databases used by RhodeCode. I recommend that you

use postgresql or sqlite (default). If you choose a database other than the

default ensure you properly adjust the db url in your production.ini

configuration file to use this other database. RhodeCode currently supports

postgresql, sqlite and mysql databases. Create the database by running

the following command::

    paster setup-rhodecode production.ini

This will prompt you for a "root" path. This "root" path is the location where

RhodeCode will store all of its repositories on the current machine. After

entering this "root" path ``setup-rhodecode`` will also prompt you for a username 

and password for the initial admin account which ``setup-rhodecode`` sets 

up for you.

setup process can be fully automated, example for lazy::

    paster setup-rhodecode production.ini --user=marcink --password=secret --email=marcin@rhodecode.org --repos=/home/marcink/my_repos

- The ``setup-rhodecode`` command will create all of the needed tables and an 

  admin account. When choosing a root path you can either use a new empty 

  location, or a location which already contains existing repositories. If you

  choose a location which contains existing repositories RhodeCode will simply 

  add all of the repositories at the chosen location to it's database. 

  (Note: make sure you specify the correct path to the root).

- Note: the given path for mercurial_ repositories **must** be write accessible

  for the application. It's very important since the RhodeCode web interface 

  will work without write access, but when trying to do a push it will 

  eventually fail with permission denied errors unless it has write access.

You are now ready to use RhodeCode, to run it simply execute::

    paster serve production.ini

- This command runs the RhodeCode server. The web app should be available at the 

  127.0.0.1:5000. This ip and port is configurable via the production.ini 

  file created in previous step

- Use the admin account you created above when running ``setup-rhodecode`` 

  to login to the web app.

- The default permissions on each repository is read, and the owner is admin. 

  Remember to update these if needed.

- In the admin panel you can toggle ldap, anonymous, permissions settings. As

  well as edit more advanced options on users and repositories

Optionally users can create `rcextensions` package that extends RhodeCode

functionality. To do this simply execute::

    paster make-rcext production.ini

This will create `rcextensions` package in the same place that your `ini` file

lives. With `rcextensions` it's possible to add additional mapping for whoosh, 

stats and add additional code into the push/pull/create repo hooks. For example

for sending signals to build-bots such as jenkins.

Please see the `__init__.py` file inside `rcextensions` package 

for more details.

Using RhodeCode with SSH

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

RhodeCode currently only hosts repositories using http and https. (The addition

of ssh hosting is a planned future feature.) However you can easily use ssh in

parallel with RhodeCode. (Repository access via ssh is a standard "out of

the box" feature of mercurial_ and you can use this to access any of the

repositories that RhodeCode is hosting. See PublishingRepositories_)

RhodeCode repository structures are kept in directories with the same name 

as the project. When using repository groups, each group is a subdirectory.

This allows you to easily use ssh for accessing repositories.

In order to use ssh you need to make sure that your web-server and the users 

login accounts have the correct permissions set on the appropriate directories.

(Note that these permissions are independent of any permissions you have set up

using the RhodeCode web interface.)

If your main directory (the same as set in RhodeCode settings) is for example

set to **/home/hg** and the repository you are using is named `rhodecode`, then

to clone via ssh you should run::

    hg clone ssh://user@server.com/home/hg/rhodecode

Using other external tools such as mercurial-server_ or using ssh key based

authentication is fully supported.

Note: In an advanced setup, in order for your ssh access to use the same

permissions as set up via the RhodeCode web interface, you can create an

authentication hook to connect to the rhodecode db and runs check functions for

permissions against that.

Setting up Whoosh full text search

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

Starting from version 1.1 the whoosh index can be build by using the paster

command ``make-index``. To use ``make-index`` you must specify the configuration

file that stores the location of the index. You may specify the location of the 

repositories (`--repo-location`).  If not specified, this value is retrieved 

from the RhodeCode database.  This was required prior to 1.2.  Starting from 

version 1.2 it is also possible to specify a comma separated list of 

repositories (`--index-only`) to build index only on chooses repositories
