3. Copy emen2/config.sample.yml to $DB_HOME/config.yml Edit the various settings in config.yml. See [[EMEN2/config.yml]]. Primarily, you will want to check the path and network settings. A simple configuration will have most EMEN2 directories (db, applog, archive, db_hotbackup, emen2files, etc.) placed under the path specified by the "&root" element, which is /home/emen2/ by default. {{{ root: &root /home/emen2/ }}} 4. After config.yml is to your liking, run {{{ python ./setup.py }}} The rest of the $DB_HOME environment will be created, skeleton parameter/protocol definitions will be installed, and a root user created. You will be prompted on the shell for a root password. 5. Test web server {{{ python ./TwistSupport.py }}} You should be able to connect to this web server instance once it is "listening..." The default port is 8080. You may login with the root password you specified previously. 6. Optional: Import Parameter/Protocol definitions from the NCMI Database. {{{ python ./clients/clone.py -- --defs }}} Note: the first "--" is intentional and required at the moment. Command arguments for the local database go before "--", arguments to the cloning script go after ("--defs") You will be prompted for two sets of credentials. First, an NCMI DB account, and second, the root password for the local database. If you do not have an NCMI DB account, you may specify "anonymous" as the username, and your email address as the password. 6. Daemon After you are satisfied with your setup, you can run EMEN2 in the background {{{ python ./emen2control.py --start }}} |
Installing and configuring EMEN2
Install Dependencies
You will first need to install the various EMEN2 dependencies. They are all straight-forward to install, and can generally be installed using Python's easy_install system.
Install EMEN2
EMEN2 can be installed using either Python easy_install:
sudo easy_install emen2
Or by downloading the source, unpacking, and using Python distutils:
python ./setup.py build sudo python ./setup.py install
Quick Start
Here is a "quick start" guide to install EMEN2, initialize an EMEN2 DB, and start the web server. The "-h" argument in the scripts below are references to a directory to keep the EMEN2 DB; the directory will be created if it does not exist.
python -m emen2.clients.clone -h $HOME/test_db -- --defs python -m emen2.web.server -h $HOME/test_db
