only accessible through the proxy. Otherwise, any client would be able to

   forge the authentication header and could effectively become authenticated

   using any account of their liking.

Integration with Issue trackers

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

RhodeCode provides a simple integration with issue trackers. It's possible

to define a regular expression that will fetch issue id stored in commit

messages and replace that with an url to this issue. To enable this simply

uncomment following variables in the ini file::

    url_pat = (?:^#|\s#)(\w+)

    issue_server_link = https://myissueserver.com/{repo}/issue/{id}

    issue_prefix = #

`url_pat` is the regular expression that will fetch issues from commit messages.

Default regex will match issues in format of #<number> eg. #300.

Matched issues will be replace with the link specified as `issue_server_link`

{id} will be replaced with issue id, and {repo} with repository name.

Since the # is striped `issue_prefix` is added as a prefix to url.

`issue_prefix` can be something different than # if you pass

ISSUE- as issue prefix this will generate an url in format::

  <a href="https://myissueserver.com/example_repo/issue/300">ISSUE-300</a>

Hook management

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

Hooks can be managed in similar way to this used in .hgrc files.

To access hooks setting click `advanced setup` on Hooks section of Mercurial

Settings in Admin.

There are 4 built in hooks that cannot be changed (only enable/disable by

checkboxes on previos section).

To add another custom hook simply fill in first section with

<name>.<hook_type> and the second one with hook path. Example hooks

can be found at *rhodecode.lib.hooks*.

Changing default encoding

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

By default RhodeCode uses utf8 encoding, starting from 1.3 series this

can be changed, simply edit default_encoding in .ini file to desired one.

This affects many parts in rhodecode including commiters names, filenames,

encoding of commit messages. In addition RhodeCode can detect if `chardet`

library is installed. If `chardet` is detected RhodeCode will fallback to it

when there are encode/decode errors.

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 use the 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 start using celery run::

 paster celeryd <configfile.ini>

.. note::

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

   user that rhodecode runs.

HTTPS support

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

There are two ways to enable https:

- Set HTTP_X_URL_SCHEME in your http server headers, than rhodecode will

  recognize this headers and make proper https redirections

- Alternatively, change the `force_https = true` flag in the ini configuration

  to force using https, no headers are needed than to enable https

Nginx virtual host example

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

Sample config for nginx using proxy::

    upstream rc {

        server 127.0.0.1:5000;

        # add more instances for load balancing

        #server 127.0.0.1:5001;

        #server 127.0.0.1:5002;

    }

    server {

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

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

       # uncomment if you have nginx with chunking module compiled

       # fixes the issues of having to put postBuffer data for large git

       # pushes

       #chunkin on;

       #error_page 411 = @my_411_error;

       #location @my_411_error {

       #    chunkin_resume;

       #}

       # uncomment if you want to serve static files by nginx

       #root /path/to/installation/rhodecode/public;

       location / {

            try_files $uri @rhode;

       }

       location @rhode {

            proxy_pass      http://rc;

            include         /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;

       }

    }

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

pushes or large pushes::

    proxy_redirect              off;

    proxy_set_header            Host $host;

    proxy_set_header            X-Url-Scheme $scheme;

    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       7200;

    proxy_send_timeout          7200;

    proxy_read_timeout          7200;

    proxy_buffers               8 32k;

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

in the production.ini file::

    [app:main]

      use = egg:rhodecode

      full_stack = true

      static_files = false

      lang=en

      cache_dir = %(here)s/data

In order to not have the statics served by the application. This improves speed.

Apache virtual host reverse proxy example

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

Here is a sample configuration file 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>

Apache as subdirectory

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

Apache subdirectory part::

    <Location /<someprefix> >

      ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:5000/<someprefix>

      ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:5000/<someprefix>

      SetEnvIf X-Url-Scheme https HTTPS=1
