OpenPaas
OpenPaaS is a collaboration platform for enterprises & organizations.
Ubuntu install)
Installation (see there for1.clone the repository
git clone https://ci.open-paas.org/stash/scm/or/rse.git
# or
git clone https://github.com/linagora/openpaas-esn.git
2.Install dependencies
You can install dependencies yourself, or use the Docker environment as described in ./docker/doc/README.md.
- ElasticSearch v2.3.2
- MongoDB v2.6.5
- Redis 3.x
- RabbitMQ 3.6.x
3.Install node.js
You can use nvm to install Node.js. Once nvm
is installed, type the following commands in the directory of your project :
nvm install `cat .nvmrc`
nvm use
4.You may need some additional packages. For example with a Debian installation, as an administrator you should use the following command:
apt-get install build-essential redis-server rabbitmq-server python-setuptools graphicsmagick graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat libjpeg-dev
5.Install Sabre/dav
Follow sabre installation instructions.
6.Install the npm dependency
npm install -g bower
7.Go into the project directory and install project dependencies (not as an administrator)
npm install
If you have any problem relating to node-canvas
during the dependencies installation,
make sure your system has installed Cairo. Documentation can be found here.
If during further manipulations you encounter errors with node modules, try to reinstall them
rm -rf node_modules/
npm install
Testing
You must install npm dependency first
npm install -g grunt-cli
You can check that everything works by launching the test suite (this may be long):
grunt --chunk=1
Note that, due to the large amount of tests, you eventually need the --chunk=1
option. It will create one new nodejs process per js test file. It prevents the memory to be overused by mocha, which would lead to tests failures.
If you want to launch tests from a single test, you can specify the file as command line argument.
For example, you can launch the backend tests on the test/unit-backend/webserver/index.js file like this:
grunt test-unit-backend --test=test/unit-backend/webserver/index.js
Note: This works for backend and midway tests.
Some specialized Grunt tasks are available, check the Gruntfile.js for more:
grunt linters # launch hinter and linter against the codebase
grunt test-frontend # only run the fontend unit tests
grunt test-unit-backend # only run the unit backend tests
grunt test-midway-backend # only run the midway backend tests
grunt test # launch all the testsuite
Fixtures
Fixtures can be configured in the fixtures folder and injected in the system using grunt:
grunt fixtures
Note that you must configure contents of files inside fixtures/config/data and fixtures/esn-config/data/ to match your environment, particularly fixtures/config/data/db.js in which the host of the mongodb database is defined. Also note that this will override all the current configuration resources with the fixtures ones.
Starting the server
You should first start mongodb, redis and elasticsearch and configure OpenPaaS.
Then 'npm start' to start the OpenPaaS web application:
npm start
Your ESN can be reached at the following address: http://localhost:8080. Now simply follow the setup wizard.
Develop OpenPaaS
Running grunt dev
will start the server in development mode. Whenever you
make changes to server files, the server will be restarted. Make sure you have
started the mongo, redis, rabbitmq and elasticsearch servers beforehand.
While developing, you have some environement variables, to help you speed up on your job.
ESN_CSS_CACHE_OFF=true grunt dev
Will force the less->css to be generated on every call.
ESN_CSS_CACHE_ON=true grunt dev
Will enable the less->css cache: the compilation will happen only once.
Docker
A Docker environment is provided to ease all the setup for various environments (development, demonstration, ...). It allows to start Docker containers for all the dependencies without having to install anything else than Docker and without having to configure all by hand.
