Manila Management Dashboard

• Free software: Apache license

• Bugs: http://bugs.launchpad.net/manila-ui

Begin by cloning the Horizon and Manila UI repositories:

git clone https://github.com/openstack/horizon
git clone https://github.com/hp-storage/manila-ui

Create a virtual environment and install Horizon dependencies:

cd horizon
python tools/install_venv.py

Set up your local_settings.py file:

cp openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.py.example openstack_dashboard/local/local_settings.py

Open up the copied local_settings.py file in your preferred text editor. You will want to customize several settings:

• HORIZON_CONFIG requires, an entry, customization_module, that refers to manila_ui.overrides:

  HORIZON_CONFIG = {
      ...
      'js_spec_files': [],
      'customization_module': 'manila_ui.overrides',
  }
  

• OPENSTACK_HOST should be configured with the hostname of your OpenStack server. Verify that the OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_URL and OPENSTACK_KEYSTONE_DEFAULT_ROLE settings are correct for your environment. (They should be correct unless you modified your OpenStack server to change them.)

Install Manila UI with all dependencies in your virtual environment:

tools/with_venv.sh pip install -e ../manila-ui/

And enable it in Horizon:

cp ../manila-ui/manila_ui/enabled/_90_manila_*.py openstack_dashboard/local/enabled

If everything has gone according to plan, you should be able to run:

./run_tests.sh --runserver 0.0.0.0:8080

and have the application start on port 8080. The horizon dashboard will be located at http://localhost:8080/

The unit tests can be executed directly from within this Manila UI plugin project directory by using:

cd ../manila-ui
./run_tests.sh

This is made possible by the dependency in test-requirements.txt upon the horizon source, which pulls down all of the horizon and openstack_dashboard modules that the plugin uses.
