== Deployment steps ==
-
REVS...
+
This instruction provides an overview of deployemnt process of revs from the
-
* provides an authoritative package database handling Products, Platforms, Licenses, Bug/Feature Trackers, Roles, Packages etc
+
sources fetched from gitorious. The result of the deployment is fully functional
-
* contains a release data-warehouse section for Releases, Baselines, Changelogs, Bugs, Images etc
+
tool ready to be used in production environment.
-
* has a flexible group hierarchy allowing data to be presented as it is needed

-
* provides high speed access to all aspects of a release
+
-
* allows management reports on bugs, features, changes, packages
+
-
==Use cases (WIP)==
+
=== Install REVS from OBS repo (prefered) ===
-
===Basic===
+
-
# Import releases of baselines from a repository of packages.
+
-
# Compare the delta between baselines showing packages added, removed, unchanged and changed and their versions.
+
-
# List bugs that were mentioned in the changelogs of packages that have changed as links to their respective bug trackers.
+
-
# Mix baselines into products and be able to visualise and compare them as above.
+
-
# List all packages of a certain release, product or baseline and present them in a printable or machine readable format.
+
-
===Advanced===
+
TODO: write sth. here
-
# Define and display all kinds of grouping of packages by : category or arbitrary naming.
+
-
# Group and display packages by license and maintainer.
+
-
# Associate audit trail of where a package originated (source control url and tag), and how it was accepted into a baseline (Promotion requests)
+
-
# Store URLs of repositories and build configuration templates (kickstarts) that can be used to reproduce an image.
+
 +
=== Install REVS from GIT (if you want to play with sources) ===
-
It integrates with, but isn't part of the [[BOSS]] workflow system.
+
Fetch package source from gitorious.

-
== Data Model ==
+
-
=== Diagram ===
+
-
[[File:REVS.png|480px|REVS Datamodel diagram]]
+
-
 
+
-
The model is produced using the [http://projects.gnome.org/dia/ linux 'dia'] tool and the master version can be found [http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs/blobs/raw/master/docs/sack.dia on gitorious].
+
-
 
+
-
[[Media:REVS.svg|Full-resolution SVG]]
+
-
 
+
-
=== Overview and Terminology ===
+
-
The data model was written to support a vendor building a product on top of MeeGo.
+
-
 
+
-
It's not a purist model as it deals with the limitations of implementation choices.
+
-
 
+
-
=== SACK ===
+
-
SACK is the python/django component of REVS which has the sole purpose of providing the datamodel.
+
-
 
+
-
==== Package Group ====
+
-
Package Group is a abstractish datamodel used by most of the REVS datamodels, most notably Platform, Product, Baseline and Product Release. This allows a list-like model of the data along with providing hierarchy (flat and recursive groups). The instances of Package Group consist of Package Links.
+
-
 
+
-
Package Group supports hierarchies of other Package Groups.
+
-
 
+
-
==== Package Link ====
+
-
A Package Link represents things related to a package.  It is used to allow grouping without replicating everything in the package. It has to have an underlying Package Name.
+
-
 
+
-
Package Links can derive to either pure Package, a Package Version, Installable (rpm) or Installable Version. See the later section for details about the each of the package classes.
+
-
 
+
-
==== Platform ====
+
-
A Platform is, at its basic form, a collection of packages. It represents a major distribution release and is used to group development releases, for example baselines.
+
-
 
+
-
The most basic example of a platform is MeeGo, which is a distribution.
+
-
 
+
-
==== Baseline ====
+
-
Baseline represents a point in time snapshot of the Package Versions associated by the Packages in a Platform. A noteworthy point is that Platform does not "contain" baselines, it links to instances of baselines.
+
-
 
+
-
==== Product ====
+
-
 
+
-
Product represents a collection of platforms that are used to run a distribution on a specific hardware. A subset of these packages usually form an iso or other device image.
+
-
 
+
-
An example of a product is MeeGo-N900, which targets N900 as its hardware and uses MeeGo as its distribution.
+
-
 
+
-
==== Product Release ====
+
-
A ProductRelease is a collection of snapshots/Baselines of the Packages of relevant Platforms which make an image for a device.
+
-
Inherits from PkgGroup to allow Releases to be collected.
+
-
 
+
-
===== Package Name =====
+
-
 
+
-
Package Name is a separate entity from the Package Link. The primary purpose of it is to provide a linking between Package Name and Package Link (and its derivatives).
+
-
 
+
-
===== Package =====
+
-
Package is the pure entity of a package, but represented with the functionality of a Package Link.
+
-
===== Installable =====
+
-
Installable represents the conceptual installable binary blob(s) that can be produced by a Package.
+
-
 
+
-
===== Installable Version =====
+
-
This represents the actual installable binary blob(s) produced by a given PackageVersion and found in an Image. Note that sometimes software is only provided as an InstallableVersion, eg. as a binary RPM.
+
-
 
+
-
=== NYC ===
+
-
NYC is another component of REVS, its purpose is to handle Licenses within releases, to identify any and all possible miscompatibilities.
+
-
 
+
-
==== License ====
+
-
License is a Package Group, thus it can have packages and sublicenses. An example is LGPL, which (in MeeGo) has packages scim and gamin and its sublicenses are LGPLv2 and LGPLv3 and LGPLv2.1.
+
-
 
+
-
== Download Source Code ==
+
-
 
+
-
REVS is currently available in gitorious:
+
-
 
+
-
http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs
+
-
 
+
-
git clone git@gitorious.org:meego-infrastructure-tools/revs.git
+
-
 
+
-
Installable packages (deb/rpm) can be found here :
+
-
 
+
-
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=revs&project=Maemo%3AMeeGo-Infra
+
-
 
+
-
== Release notes ==
+
-
The release notes reside in the [[Release_Infrastructure/REVS/ReleaseNotes|release notes page]].
+
-
== Deployment process ==
+
-
 
+
-
When REVS is deployed, it goes through a release process iteration within the team. The process consists of creating a release branch from master branch, creating a release version tag when staging tests pass. After this, the sources are packaged using git-archive method, with HEAD as the current head of the release branch. To do your own packaging in eg. home project, just link repositories from the testing repository and branch your package, without following upstream release. If you do this, remember to reflect the TESTING_OBS_REPO variable to your setup.
+
<pre>
<pre>
-
git status
 
-
"On branch master"
 
-
git checkout -b release-2011wXX (replace XX with week if any)
 
-
git archive --format=tar --prefix=revs-X.X.X/ release-2011wXX|gzip > $(TESTING_OBS_REPO)/revs/revs_X.X.X.tar.gz (replace X.X.X with version you are testing)
 
-
</pre>
 
-
The sources, along with any other necessary packaging information, are then uploaded to OBS for building. The project in which REVS lives for testing is Maemo:MeeGo-Infra:Testing.  
+
    git clone git://gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs.git
-
<pre>
 
-
(while in TESTING_OBS_REPO)
 
-
osc commit -m "Staging release"
 
</pre>
</pre>
-
The package may not build, if it doesn't, there is another GIT source iteration which shall include the fixes needed to get the package to build.
 
-
<pre>
+
Install all build dependencies.
-
cd $(REVS_SRC_REPO)
+
-
(in release branch)
+
-
vim revs/.... (do whatever is needed to fix the OBS build)
+
-
git commit -m "Fixed xxx"
+
-
git archive --format=tar --prefix=revs-X.X.X/ release-2011wXX|gzip > cd $(TESTING_OBS_REPO)/revs/revs_X.X.X.tar.gz (replace X.X.X with version you are testing)
+
-
cd $(TESTING_OBS_REPO)/revs/
+
-
osc commit -m "Fixed xxx"
+
-
</pre>
+
-
 
+
-
Before upgrading the staging server, one must destroy the staging database and import the production database. This is to create a certainty that the production database can be migrated successfully.
+
-
 
+
-
A simple mysqldump is a generally accepted way of doing this.
+
-
 
+
-
When the package builds successfully, it is installed to the staging server for further tests.
+
<pre>
<pre>
-
zypper ref
 
-
/etc/init.d/revs stop
 
-
zypper in revs
 
-
</pre>
 
-
Follow any and all notes in the [[Release_Infrastructure/REVS/ReleaseNotes|release notes page]] afterwards. This is because of possible migrations and data imports that need to take place in order for REVS to be functional.
+
    sudo apt-get install yum python-django debhelper python-support python-setuptools python-sphinx python-sqlite
-
<pre>
 
-
(Do your release notes imports/migrations)
 
-
/etc/init.d/revs start
 
</pre>
</pre>
-
The staging server testing includes a rigorous testing of the interface and the admin interface. After the package is upgraded, data from production database shall be pulled into the staging server database.
+
Build the package.
-
 
+
-
Every new feature included in the release shall be tested and verified by the developers and an architect. If the developers or architect are not satisfied of the testing, the iteration will begin anew from the GIT sources.
+
-
 
+
-
The bugs arised during testing in staging are fixed and committed to the release branch, if the fixes concern only the current release. Otherwise the commits are made to the master branch. After this, the tag made earlier is updated to the current head of the release branch.  
+
<pre>
<pre>
-
cd $(REVS_SRC_REPO)
 
-
(in release branch)
 
-
vim revs/.... (do whatever is needed to fix the OBS build)
 
-
git commit -m "Fixed xxx"
 
-
git archive --format=tar --prefix=revs-X.X.X/ release-2011wXX|gzip > cd $(TESTING_OBS_REPO)/revs/revs_X.X.X.tar.gz (replace X.X.X with version you are testing)
 
-
cd $(TESTING_OBS_REPO)/revs/
 
-
osc commit -m "Fixed xxx"
 
-
</pre>
 
-
If the staging environment works and passes the tests, upgrade on production takes place. If it doesn't, an LVM rollback of staging is required and after that, the staging process starts again.
+
    cd revs
 +
    dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us -sa -tc -D
 +
    cd ..

== Installing And Setting Up ==
 
-
 
-
Installing and setting up REVS is guided in the [http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs/blobs/master/README README] file in the source code. It includes the following sections
 
-
 
-
* Setting REVS Up
 
-
** Prerequisites
 
-
** Running REVS
 
-
* Admin Interface and Trackers
 
-
** Admin interface
 
-
* Test Data
 
-
** Adding Data
 
-
 
-
=== Installing using RPM ===
 
-
 
-
When installing REVS via RPM, ther are specific instructions for it. For the rest of the chapters, the installation OS is assumed OpenSUSE, version 11.2.
 
-
 
-
When installing on openSuse, the following extra repos are needed :
 
-
 
 
-
  zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/http/openSUSE_11.2/server:http.repo
 
-
  zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/python/openSUSE_11.2/devel:languages:python.repo
 
-
 
-
Start up by pulling in the REVS repository information and refresh the repositories:
 
-
 
-
  zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Maemo:/MeeGo-Infra/openSUSE_11.2-plus/Maemo:MeeGo-Infra.repo
 
-
  zypper ref
 
-
 
-
Then install the revs package:
 
-
 
-
  zypper in revs
 
-
==== Lighttpd configuration ====
 
-
 
-
Create a file /etc/lighttpd/vhosts.d/revs.conf, with contents
 
-
<pre>
 
-
var.namebasedir = "/revs"
 
-
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^" + namebasedir {
 
-
        dir-listing.activate = "disable"
 
-
}
 
-
alias.url += (
 
-
  namebasedir + "/static" => "/usr/share/revs/static/",
 
-
  namebasedir + "/media" => "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/",
 
-
)
 
-
url.redirect += (
 
-
  "^" + namebasedir + "$" => namebasedir + "/"
 
-
)
 
-
fastcgi.server += (
 
-
    "/revs.fcgi" => (
 
-
        "main" => (
 
-
            "socket" => "/var/run" + namebasedir + ".socket",
 
-
            "check-local" => "disable",
 
-
        )
 
-
    ),
 
-
)
 
-
url.rewrite-if-not-file += (
 
-
  "^(" + namebasedir + "/.*)$" => "/revs.fcgi/$1"
 
-
)
 
</pre>
</pre>
-
And uncomment the following line in /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf:
+
Install REVS and REVS' lamp configuration binary dependencies
-
 
+
-
  include_shell "cat /etc/lighttpd/vhosts.d/*.conf"
+
-
 
+
-
Also make sure that modules '''alias''', '''redirect''', '''rewrite''' and '''fastcgi''' are enabled.
+
-
 
+
-
If you did a fresh install of the MySQL database, see the [[#MYSQL_Installation|following]] section. Otherwise skip to [[#Database_creation|database creation]].
+
-
 
+
-
==== MYSQL Installation ====
+
-
Mysql database is needed by revs, but the setup is not too hard.
+
-
 
+
-
Issue the following commands:
+
-
 
+
-
  rcmysql start
+
-
  mysql_secure_installation
+
-
 
+
-
And answer the questions asked by the installation script. Move on to the next section.
+
-
 
+
-
==== Database creation ====
+
-
 
+
-
REVS needs a functional mysql installation in order to work properly. The following script will do just that.
+
<pre>
<pre>
-
mysql -u root -p
 
-
  DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS revs;
 
-
  CREATE DATABASE revs CHARACTER SET utf8;
 
-
  CREATE USER 'revs'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'revs';
 
-
  GRANT ALL ON revs.* TO 'revs'@'localhost';
 
-
  FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
 
-
</pre>
 
-
Afterwards issue the following commands:
+
    sudo apt-get install mysql-server apache2 libapache2-mod-wsgi python-mysqldb
-
django-admin.py syncdb --settings=revs.settings
 
-
django-admin.py migrate --settings=revs.settings
 
-
 
-
If you want to create a superuser for Django, you may do so in the previous script.
 
-
 
-
==== Starting up REVS ====
 
-
 
-
REVS can be started up with its own initscript. Before running it, make sure you have completed each of the above section completely.
 
-
  /etc/init.d/lighttpd restart
 
-
  /etc/init.d/revs start
 
-
 
-
To automatically start REVS on boot do:
 
-
chkconfig --add mysql lighttpd revs
 
-
 
-
 
-
After this, you can continue to [[#Importing_data_to_REVS|importing data]]
 
-
 
-
=== Install from Debian package ===
 
-
 
-
For starters, one can enable the Maemo:MeeGo-Infra repository by adding the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list:
 
-
<pre>
 
-
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Maemo:/MeeGo-Infra/Debian_5.0/ /
 
</pre>
</pre>
-
After adding the repositories, you can install revs by:
+
Install REVS together with LAMP configuration. Note that revs itself has to be
 +
installed before LAMP configuration.
<pre>
<pre>
-
apt-get update
 
-
apt-get install revs
 
-
</pre>
 
-
==== Nginx installation ====
+
    sudo dpkg -i revs_*.deb
-
REVS in meego.com uses nginx, so here are the relevant config bits:
+
     sudo dpkg -i revs-lamp_*.deb
-
<pre>
+
-
location ^~ /revs/static/ {
+
-
     alias /usr/share/revs/static/;
+
-
}
+
-
location /revs {
+
-
# host and port to fastcgi server
+
-
    fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/revs.socket;
+
-
    fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_script_name;
+
-
    fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
+
-
    fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
+
-
    fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
+
-
    fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
+
-
    fastcgi_pass_header Authorization;
+
-
    fastcgi_intercept_errors off;
+
-
}
 
</pre>
</pre>
-
==== Database installation ====
+
After installing REVS you may go to '''DOMAIN/revs''' to use the tool or to
-
Follow the same instructions as in OpenSUSE installation guide, minus that django-admin.py is django-admin in Debian.
+
'''DOMAIN/revs/admin''' to access admin interface. The default admin user
 +
has username '''admin''' and password '''admin'''.
-
== Testing ==
+
=== Sync REVS with OBS instance ===
-
REVS allows usage of Django test framework to run unit tests on its components. Example is provided by running
+
Populate database with the latest production data.
<pre>
<pre>
-
run_tests.sh
 
-
</pre>
 
-
in the source root directory. It reports if all tests passed.
+
    TODO: write sth. here
-
== REST ==
 
-
 
-
REVS has an API for controlling the models via HTTP. Currently Baseline, Package, Platform, Product, Product Release and Tracker models are modifiable and readable using our RESTful API.
 
-
 
-
Our REST implementation of choice is [http://bitbucket.org/jespern/django-piston/wiki/Home Django Piston], as it allows direct model handling using the Django ORM.
 
-
 
-
The scripts for [http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs/blobs/raw/master/tmp/get.sh reading] and [http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs/blobs/raw/master/tmp/prod.json writing] are available in the REVS source repository.
 
-
 
-
See the API section for details and examples for each model.
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
Also the responses are given in JSON, so one might need eg. [http://packages.debian.org/lenny/edit-json edit-json] to view or edit JSON files.
 
-
 
-
=== API ===
 
-
The API handlers all support either pure url-encoded data or JSON. Each model is capable of both but this document reviews only the JSON input and output.
 
-
==== Urls ====
 
-
The following URLS are supported:
 
-
<pre>
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Package/<name> (Get a package name, list all versions) (Read/Write)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Package/<name>/<version> (fetches a Package by Version) (Read-only)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Product/ (shows a list of products) (Read-only)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Product/<name> (shows specific product) (Read/Write)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Baseline/ (shows a list of baselines) (Read-only)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Baseline/?sort={date,name,platform} (shows a list of baselines, sorted by either date, name or platform) (Read-only)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Baseline/<name> (shows specific baseline) (Read/Write)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/ProductRelease/ (shows a list of product releases) (Read-only)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/ProductRelease/?sort={'name', 'release_of', 'date'} (shows a list of product releases, sorted by either name, release of the product release or date) (Read-only)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/ProductRelease/<name> (specific product release) (Read/Write)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Tracker/ (shows a list of trackers) (Read-only)
 
-
http://revs.host/revs/api/Tracker/<name> (specific tracker) (Read/Write)
 
</pre>
</pre>
-
Also there are a couple of functional urls:
+

== Importing data to REVS ==
 
-
 
-
REVS uses 2 main scripts to import data from RPM repositories, [https://meego.gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs/blobs/ext_revived/bin/parse_primary.py parse_primary] and [https://meego.gitorious.org/meego-infrastructure-tools/revs/blobs/ext_revived/bin/parse_other.py parse_other].
 
-
 
-
Each of these scripts provide different functionality, eg. parse_primary parses the ##hash##-primary.xml.gz and creates proper package, package version, license and many more REVS objects from this information. The script parse_other has the only functionality of collecting changelog information from ##hash##-other.xml.gz and linking this changelog information to package versions (and creating new ones if needed).
 
-
 
-
=== Usage ===
 
-
 
-
==== parse_primary.py ====
 
-
 
-
parse_primary.py -f --baseline|-b <baseline> --platform|-p <platform> <URL_TO_primary.xml.gz>
 
-
 
-
;-f
 
-
: Forces the creation of a baseline or a platform
 
-
;-b|--baseline
 
-
: Baseline name to use for updating/creation, use -f to create
 
-
;-p|--platform
 
-
: Platform name to use, use -f to create
 
-
 
-
==== parse_other.py ====
 
-
 
-
parse_other.py -f -b|--baseline <URL_TO_other.xml.gz>
 
-
 
-
;-f
 
-
: Force creation/update of baseline and its changelogs
 
-
;-b|--baseline
 
-
: Baseline to use for changelogs
