A "release readiness" and work prioritization dashboard for Bugzilla users.
If you want to run this project in a virtualenv to isolate it from
other Python projects on your system, create a virtualenv and activate
it. Then run bin/install-reqs to install the dependencies for
this project into your Python environment.
You'll probably need to create a src/bugdash/settings/local.py file with
some details of your local configuration. See
src/bugdash/settings/local.sample.py for a sample that can be copied to
src/bugdash/settings/local.py and modified.
Once this configuration is done, you should be able to run ./manage.py
runserver and access the site in your browser at
http://localhost:8000.
To install the necessary Ruby gems for Compass/Sass development (only
necessary if you plan to modify Sass files and re-generate CSS), run
bin/install-gems. Update requirements/gems.txt if newer gems should
be used.
When deployed under a multi-process webserver, a real cache backend must be
configured in place of the default "local memory" cache - see the CACHES
setting in src/bugdash/settings/local.sample.py.
In addition to the above configuration, in any production deployment this entire app should be served exclusively over HTTPS (since serving authenticated pages over HTTP invites session hijacking attacks). Ideally, the non-HTTP URLs should redirect to the HTTPS version.
src/bugdash/settings/prod.py should be used as the settings module in a
production deployment in place of src/bugdash/settings/default.py (set
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=bugdash.settings.prod). Site-specific overrides
can still be placed in src/bugdash/settings/local.py.
You can run ./manage.py checksecure to verify that settings are correctly
configured for a secure deployment.
This app also uses the staticfiles contrib app in Django 1.3 for collecting
static assets from reusable components into a single directory for production
serving. Under "runserver" in development this is handled automatically. In
production, run ./manage.py collectstatic followed by ./manage.py
compress to collect and compress all static assets into the
collected-assets directory (or whatever STATIC_ROOT is set to in
src/bugdash/settings/local.py), and make those collected assets available
by HTTP at the STATIC_URL setting.
