tuxedo

======

An improved version of the [Bouncer](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bouncer) mirror

management software.

Bouncer is a Mozilla project. The new admin backend was originally written by

Frederic Wenzel (fwenzel@mozilla.com).

Getting Started

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

### Python

You need Python 2.6. Also, you probably want to run this application in a

[virtualenv][virtualenv] environment.

Run ``easy_install pip`` followed by ``pip install -r requirements.txt``

to install the required Python libraries.

[virtualenv]: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv

### git submodules

The list of known languages is provided by ``languages.json`` in the directory

``inc/product-details/json`` and imported as a [git submodule][git-submodule].

The source of the data is the [Mozilla product-details library][prod-details].

To initialize the submodule (or pull updates from it), run this from the tuxedo

root directory:

    git submodule update --init

[git-submodule]: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-submodule.html

[prod-details]: http://svn.mozilla.org/libs/product-details/

### Initial Database Setup

If you're installing a new copy of Bouncer, run ``./manage.py syncdb``

followed by ``./manage.py migrate`` (see "Database Migrations" below).

### Database Migrations

I am using [South](http://south.aeracode.org/) to keep track of database

migrations. ``./manage.py migrate`` will apply these migrations when

necessary.

### Upgrading an older version of Bouncer

If you are upgrading from an earlier version of Bouncer that isn't locale-

aware yet, apply ``sql/bouncer-add-lang.sql`` first.

Then, apply ``sql/incremental.sql`` to bring the DB up to date.

Finally, run the following steps to initialize Django and South:

    ./manage.py syncdb   # initialize django

    # (answer "no" to the "add a new admin?" question)

    ./manage.py migrate mirror 0001 --fake   # initialize South

    ./manage.py migrate   # apply all existing migrations

Tuxedo API and mod_wsgi

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

There are multiple ways to deploy a Django project on a web server. If you

want to use Apache with mod_wsgi, make sure to set it up so it passes

[HTTP Basic Auth credentials][userauth] on to the application, otherwise

the Tuxedo API won't work.

[userauth]: http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/ConfigurationGuidelines#User_Authentication

Why "tuxedo"?

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

In my silly mind, I chose to interpret "Bouncer" as "doorman" and subsequently

decided that its new version should be codenamed like what fancy bouncers wear:

a tuxedo.
