Starting development of Fedora Statistics 2.0 with Moksha

09. 07. 2010, 08.14

We are trying to extend Statistics 2.0 module running inside of Fedora Community portal using Moksha web framework. When I was trying to get it working, I have used Statistics 2.0: The beginnings tutorial, but it looks to be slightly outdated, so I have jumped on #moksha on FreeNode IRC channel where lmacken provided great help. Thanks.

Installing Moksha

Packages in the repository are outdated, so we will build ours. First just install these packages: yum -y install python-paver pytz python-tw-jquery. And then build and install Moksha:

$ git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/moksha
$ cd noksha
$ vim setup.py   # comment-out ToscaWidgets in install_requires variable
$ paver reinstall   # this will build and try to install moksha rpms using sudo

I do not have sudo configured so when it was asking about my password, just pressed Ctrl+C and installed moksha manually - just package moksha is enough.

During build, I have seen few errors:

$ paver reinstall
[...]
mv dist/* ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/
mv: cannot move `dist/moksha-0.4.4.tar.bz2' to `/home/pok/rpmbuild/SOURCES/': Not a directory


Captured Task Output:
---------------------

---> pavement.reinstall
rm -fr dist/
python setup.py sdist --format=bztar
mv dist/* ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/

Build failed running pavement.reinstall: Subprocess return code: 1

This simply meant I do not have SOURCES directory in my rpmbuild dir. Creating it done the trick.

$ paver reinstall

Build failed running pavement.reinstall: Subprocess return code: 1

This was caused by the fact, I had another moksha package installed.

Running Fedora Community

Checkout sources, configure plugins and run development server:


$ git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/fedoracommunity.git
$ cd fedoracommunity
$ python setup.py egg_info
$ paster serve development.ini

Adding HelloWorld page

To add some sample HelloWorld page you can use pre-created module (located in fedoracommunity/mokshaapps/helloworld/) in the sources and you have to edit config file, re-configure plug-ins and restart server.


$ vim development.ini
$ vim setup.py
$ python setup.py egg_info
$ paster serve development.ini

You need to add this to the config to the fedoracommunity.mainnav.apps list:

MokshaApp('HelloWorld','fedoracommunity.helloworld', params={'username': None}),

And in the setup.py in section [moksha.application] add line:

fedoracommunity.helloworld = fedoracommunity.mokshaapps.helloworld.controllers.root:RootController
