Loggerhead depends on SimpleTAL for templating and Paste for the
15
server. So you need these installed -- on Ubuntu you want the
16
'python-simpletal' and 'python-paste' packages installed. You need
17
version 1.2 or newer of Paste.
19
Then simply run the 'serve-branches.py' with the branch you want to

Loggerhead depends on:
16
1) SimpleTAL for templating.
17
On Ubuntu, `sudo apt-get install python-simpletal`
18
or download from http://www.owlfish.com/software/simpleTAL/download.html
19
2) simplejson for producing JSON data.
20
On Ubuntu, `sudo apt-get install python-simplejson`
21
or use `easy_install simplejson`.
22
3) Paste for the server. (You need version 1.2 or newer of Paste.)
23
On Ubuntu, `sudo apt-get install python-paste`
24
or use `easy_install Paste`
25
4) Paste Deploy (optional, needed when proxying through Apache)
26
On Ubuntu, `sudo apt-get install python-pastedeploy`
27
or use `easy_install PasteDeploy`
29
Then simply run the 'serve-branches' with the branch you want to
20
30
serve on the command line:
22
./serve-branches.py ~/path/to/branch
32
./serve-branches ~/path/to/branch
24
34
The script listens on port 8080 so head to http://localhost:8080/ in
25
35
your browser to see the branch. You can also pass a directory that
30
40
Loggerhead will notice and refresh, and Bazaar uses its own branch
31
41
locking to prevent corruption.
43
To run loggerhead as a linux daemon:
44
1) Copy loggerheadd to /etc/init.d
45
2) Edit the file to configure where your loggerhead is installed, and which
46
serve-branches options you would like.
47
3) Register the service
49
a) on upstart based systems like Ubuntu run:
50
update-rc.d loggerheadd defaults
51
b) on Sysvinit based systems like Centos or SuSE run:
52
chkconfig --add loggerheadd

LOGGERHEAD AS A BAZAAR PLUGIN
56
-----------------------------
58
This branch contains experimental support for using Loggerhead as a Bazaar
59
plugin. To use it, place the top-level Loggerhead directory (the one
60
containing this file) at ``~/.bazaar/plugins/loggerhead``.

63
USING A CONFIG FILE
35
64
-------------------
37
66
Previous versions of Loggerhead read their configuration from a config
38
67
file. This mode of operation is still supported by the
39
'start-loggerhead.py' script. A 'loggerhead.conf.example' file is
68
'start-loggerhead' script. A 'loggerhead.conf.example' file is
40
69
included in the source which has comments explaining the various
43
72
Loggerhead can then be started by running::
45
$ ./start-loggerhead.py
47
76
This will run loggerhead in the background, listening on port 8080 by
50
79
To stop Loggerhead, run::
52
$ ./stop-loggerhead.py
54
83
In the configuration file you can configure projects, and branches per
55
84
project. The idea is that you could be publishing several (possibly
58
87
included with the source.
60
89
A debug and access log are stored in the logs/ folder, relative to
61
the location of the start-loggerhead.py script.

the location of the start-loggerhead script.

SERVING LOGGERHEAD FROM BEHIND APACHE

run behind a proxy at the root of a site, but if you're running it at
79
some path into the site, you'll need to add a 'prefix' argument to the

PrefixMiddleware call in the script. More flexible configuration

should be added soon...

some path into the site, you'll need to specify is using '--prefix=/some_path'.
