(if not found or relocated, google for "visual studio 2008 express" for

updated link)

You can also download full ISO file for offline installation, just

choose "All - Offline Install ISO image file" in the previous page and

choose "Visual C++ 2008 Express" when installing.

.. note::

   Using other versions of Visual Studio will lead to random crashes.

   You must use Visual Studio 2008!"

.. note::

   Silverlight Runtime and SQL Server 2008 Express Edition are not

   required, you can uncheck them

.. note::

   64bit: You also need to install the Microsoft Windows SDK for .NET 3.5 SP1 (.NET 4.0 won't work).

   Download from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3138

.. note::

   64bit: You also need to copy and rename a .bat file to make the Visual C++ compiler work.

   I am not sure why this is not necessary for 32bit.

   Copy C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\vcvars64.bat to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\amd64\vcvarsamd64.bat

Step2 - Install Python

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

Install Python 2.x.y (x >= 5) x86 version (32bit). DO NOT USE A 3.x version.

Download Python 2.x.y from:

http://www.python.org/download/

Choose "Windows Installer" (32bit version) not "Windows X86-64

Installer". While writing this guide, the latest version was v2.7.3.

Remember the specific major and minor version installed, because it will

be needed in the next step. In this case, it is "2.7".

.. note::

   64bit: Just download and install the 64bit version of python.

Step3 - Install Win32py extensions

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

Download pywin32 from:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/

- Click on "pywin32" folder

- Click on the first folder (in this case, Build 217, maybe newer when you try)

- Choose the file ending with ".win32-py2.x.exe" -> x being the minor

  version of Python you installed (in this case, 7)

  When writing this guide, the file was:

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20217/pywin32-217.win32-py2.7.exe/download

  .. note::

     64bit: Download and install the 64bit version.

     At the time of writing you can find this at:

     http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20218/pywin32-218.win-amd64-py2.7.exe/download

Step4 - Python BIN

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

Add Python BIN folder to the path

You have to add the Python folder to the path, you can do it manually

(editing "PATH" environment variable) or using Windows Support Tools

that came preinstalled in Vista/7 and can be installed in Windows XP.

- Using support tools on WINDOWS XP:

  If you use Windows XP you can install them using Windows XP CD and

  navigating to \SUPPORT\TOOLS. There, execute Setup.EXE (not MSI).

  Afterwards, open a CMD and type::

    SETX PATH "%PATH%;[your-python-path]" -M

  Close CMD (the path variable will be updated then)

- Using support tools on WINDOWS Vista/7:

  Open a CMD and type::

    SETX PATH "%PATH%;[your-python-path]" /M

  Please substitute [your-python-path] with your Python installation path.

  Typically: C:\\Python27

Step5 - RhodeCode folder structure

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

Create a RhodeCode folder structure

This is only a example to install RhodeCode, you can of course change

it. However, this guide will follow the proposed structure, so please

later adapt the paths if you change them. My recommendation is to use

folders with NO SPACES. But you can try if you are brave...

Create the following folder structure::

  C:\RhodeCode

  C:\RhodeCode\Bin

  C:\RhodeCode\Env

  C:\RhodeCode\Repos

Step6 - Install virtualenv

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

Install Virtual Env for Python

Navigate to: http://www.virtualenv.org/en/latest/index.html#installation

Right click on "virtualenv.py" file and choose "Save link as...".

Download to C:\\RhodeCode (or whatever you want)

(the file is located at

https://raw.github.com/pypa/virtualenv/master/virtualenv.py)

Create a virtual Python environment in C:\\RhodeCode\\Env (or similar). To

do so, open a CMD (Python Path should be included in Step3), navigate

where you downloaded "virtualenv.py", and write::

 python virtualenv.py C:\RhodeCode\Env

(--no-site-packages is now the default behaviour of virtualenv, no need

to include it)

Step7 - Install RhodeCode

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

Finally, install RhodeCode

Close previously opened command prompt/s, and open a Visual Studio 2008

Command Prompt (**IMPORTANT!!**). To do so, go to Start Menu, and then open

"Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition" -> "Visual Studio Tools" ->

"Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt"

.. note::

   64bit: For 64bit you need to modify the shortcut that is used to start the

   Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt. Use right-mouse click to open properties.

Change commandline from::

%comspec% /k ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat"" x86

to::

%comspec% /k ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat"" amd64

In that CMD (loaded with VS2008 PATHs) type::

  cd C:\RhodeCode\Env\Scripts (or similar)

  activate

The prompt will change into "(Env) C:\\RhodeCode\\Env\\Scripts" or similar

(depending of your folder structure). Then type::

 pip install rhodecode

(long step, please wait until fully complete)

Some warnings will appear, don't worry as they are normal.

Step8 - Configuring RhodeCode

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

steps taken from http://packages.python.org/RhodeCode/setup.html

You have to use the same Visual Studio 2008 command prompt as Step7, so

if you closed it reopen it following the same commands (including the

"activate" one). When ready, just type::

  cd C:\RhodeCode\Bin

  paster make-config RhodeCode production.ini

Then, you must edit production.ini to fit your needs (ip address, ip

port, mail settings, database, whatever). I recommend using NotePad++

(free) or similar text editor, as it handles well the EndOfLine

character differences between Unix and Windows

(http://notepad-plus-plus.org/)

For the sake of simplicity lets run it with the default settings. After

your edits (if any), in the previous Command Prompt, type::

(this time a NEW database will be installed, you must follow a different

step to later UPGRADE to a newer RhodeCode version)

The script will ask you for confirmation about creating a NEW database,

answer yes (y)

The script will ask you for repository path, answer C:\\RhodeCode\\Repos

(or similar)

The script will ask you for admin username and password, answer "admin"

+ "123456" (or whatever you want)

The script will ask you for admin mail, answer "admin@xxxx.com" (or

whatever you want)

If you make some mistake and the script does not end, don't worry, start

it again.

Step9 - Running RhodeCode

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

In the previous command prompt, being in the C:\\RhodeCode\\Bin folder,

just type::

 paster serve production.ini

Open yout web server, and go to http://127.0.0.1:5000

It works!! :-)

Remark:

If it does not work first time, just Ctrl-C the CMD process and start it

again. Don't forget the "http://" in Internet Explorer

What this Guide does not cover:

- Installing Celery

- Running RhodeCode as Windows Service. You can investigate here:

Upgrading

=========

Stop running RhodeCode

Open a CommandPrompt like in Step7 (VS2008 path + activate) and type::

 easy_install -U rhodecode

 cd \RhodeCode\Bin

{ backup your production.ini file now} ::

 paster make-config RhodeCode production.ini

(check changes and update your production.ini accordingly) ::

 paster upgrade-db production.ini (update database)

Full steps in http://packages.python.org/RhodeCode/upgrade.html

.. _setup:

=====

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::

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

up for you.

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

  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

  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/delete 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

skipping any other found in repos location

You may optionally pass the option `-f` to enable a full index rebuild. Without

the `-f` option, indexing will run always in "incremental" mode.

For an incremental index build use::

    paster make-index production.ini

For a full index rebuild use::

    paster make-index production.ini -f

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

 paster make-index production.ini --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 make-index /path/to/rhodecode/production.ini

When using incremental mode (the default) whoosh will check the last

modification date of each file and add it to be reindexed if a newer file is

available. The indexing daemon checks for any removed files and removes them

from index.

If you want to rebuild index from scratch, you can use the `-f` flag as above,

or in the 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 the python-ldap_ package. This package is

available via pypi, so you can install it by running

using easy_install::

    easy_install python-ldap

using pip::

    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::

 Connection settings

 Enable LDAP          = checked

 Host                 = host.example.org

 Port                 = 389

 Account              = <account>

 Password             = <password>

 Connection Security  = LDAPS connection

 Certificate Checks   = DEMAND

 Search settings

 Base DN              = CN=users,DC=host,DC=example,DC=org

 LDAP Filter          = (&(objectClass=user)(!(objectClass=computer)))

 LDAP Search Scope    = SUBTREE

 Attribute mappings

 Login Attribute      = uid

 First Name Attribute = firstName

 Last Name Attribute  = lastName

 E-mail Attribute     = mail

If your user groups are placed in a Organisation Unit (OU) structure the Search Settings configuration differs::

 Search settings

 Base DN              = DC=host,DC=example,DC=org

 LDAP Filter          = (&(memberOf=CN=your user group,OU=subunit,OU=unit,DC=host,DC=example,DC=org)(objectClass=user))

 LDAP Search Scope    = SUBTREE

.. _enable_ldap:

Enable LDAP : required

    Whether to use LDAP for authenticating users.

.. _ldap_host:

Host : required

    LDAP server hostname or IP address. Can be also a comma separated

    list of servers to support LDAP fail-over.

.. _Port:

Port : required

    389 for un-encrypted LDAP, 636 for SSL-encrypted LDAP.

.. _ldap_account:

Account : optional

    Only required if the LDAP server does not allow anonymous browsing of

    records.  This should be a special account for record browsing.  This

    will require `LDAP Password`_ below.

.. _LDAP Password:

Password : optional

    Only required if the LDAP server does not allow anonymous browsing of

    records.

.. _Enable LDAPS:

Connection Security : required

    Defines the connection to LDAP server

    No encryption

        Plain non encrypted connection

    LDAPS connection

        Enable ldaps connection. It will likely require `Port`_ to be set to

        a different value (standard LDAPS port is 636). When LDAPS is enabled

        then `Certificate Checks`_ is required.

    START_TLS on LDAP connection

        START TLS connection

.. _Certificate Checks:

#!/bin/sh
