[ Version 1.2 for Bazaar 1.2 ]
6
Loggerhead is a web viewer for Bazaar branches. It can be used to
7
navigate a branch history, annotate files, perform searches... all the
10
To get started, first you need to create a 'loggerhead.conf' file
11
specifying the branches you want to view. A 'loggerhead.conf.example'
12
file is included in the source which has comments explaining the
15
Loggerhead can then be started by running::
17
$ ./start-loggerhead.py
19
This will run loggerhead in the background. It listens on port 8080
20
by default, so go to http://localhost:8080/ in your browser to see the
21
list of bublished branches.
23
To stop Loggerhead, run::
25
$ ./stop-loggerhead.py
27
If you want to view Bazaar branches from your existing Apache
28
installation, you'll need to configure Apache to proxy certain
29
requests to Loggerhead. Adding lines like this to you Apache
30
configuration is one way to do this::
32
<Location "/branches/">
33
ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:8080/
34
ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:8080/
37
In the configuration file you can configure projects, and branches per
38
project. The idea is that you could be publishing several (possibly
39
unrelated) projects through the same loggerhead instance, and several
40
branches for the same project. See the "loggerhead.conf.example" file
41
included with the source.
43
Although Loggerhead is a TurboGears (http://www.turbogears.org)
44
project, don't bother with "dev.cfg" or any of the other TurboGears
45
config files. Loggerhead overrides those values with its own.
47
A debug and access log are stored in the logs/ folder, relative to
48
the location of the start-loggerhead.py script.
50
You may update the Bazaar branch at any time (for example, from a cron).
51
Loggerhead will notice and refresh, and Bazaar uses its own branch
52
locking to prevent corruption.
58
To speed up operations with large branches, loggerhead can be configured
59
to create a files changed cache per branch on request:
61
- a cache of files changed in a revision
63
You can put the cache folder anywhere.
69
Loggerhead is loosely based on bazaar-webserve, which was loosely
70
based on hgweb. Discussion should take place on the bazaar-dev
71
mailing list at bazaar@lists.canonical.com. You can join the list at
72
<https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/bazaar>. You don't need to
73
subscribe to post, but your first post will be held briefly for manual

This is a TurboGears (http://www.turbogears.org) project. It can be
4
started by running the start-loggerhead.py script.
