a2enmod wsgi

- Add global Apache configuration to tell mod_wsgi that Python only will be

  used in the WSGI processes and shouldn't be initialized in the Apache

  processes::

    WSGIRestrictEmbedded On

- Create a wsgi dispatch script, like the one below. Make sure you

  check that the paths correctly point to where you installed Kallithea

  and its Python Virtual Environment.

- Enable the ``WSGIScriptAlias`` directive for the WSGI dispatch script,

  as in the following example. Once again, check the paths are

  correctly specified.

Here is a sample excerpt from an Apache Virtual Host configuration file:

.. code-block:: apache

    WSGIDaemonProcess kallithea \

        threads=4 \

        python-home=/srv/kallithea/venv

    WSGIProcessGroup kallithea

    WSGIScriptAlias / /srv/kallithea/dispatch.wsgi

    WSGIPassAuthorization On

Or if using a dispatcher WSGI script with proper virtualenv activation:

.. code-block:: apache

    WSGIDaemonProcess kallithea threads=4

    WSGIProcessGroup kallithea

    WSGIScriptAlias / /srv/kallithea/dispatch.wsgi

    WSGIPassAuthorization On

Apache will by default run as a special Apache user, on Linux systems

usually ``www-data`` or ``apache``. If you need to have the repositories

directory owned by a different user, use the user and group options to

WSGIDaemonProcess to set the name of the user and group.

Example WSGI dispatch script:

.. code-block:: python

    import os

    os.environ["HGENCODING"] = "UTF-8"

    os.environ['PYTHON_EGG_CACHE'] = '/srv/kallithea/.egg-cache'

    os.chdir('/srv/kallithea/')

    import site

    site.addsitedir("/srv/kallithea/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages")

    ini = '/srv/kallithea/my.ini'

    from paste.script.util.logging_config import fileConfig

    fileConfig(ini)

    from paste.deploy import loadapp

    application = loadapp('config:' + ini)

Or using proper virtualenv activation:

.. code-block:: python

    activate_this = '/srv/kallithea/venv/bin/activate_this.py'

    execfile(activate_this, dict(__file__=activate_this))

    import os

    os.environ['HOME'] = '/srv/kallithea'

    ini = '/srv/kallithea/kallithea.ini'

    from paste.script.util.logging_config import fileConfig

    fileConfig(ini)

    from paste.deploy import loadapp

    application = loadapp('config:' + ini)

Other configuration files

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

A number of `example init.d scripts`__ can be found in

the ``init.d`` directory of the Kallithea source.
