The Eucalyptus Management Console is a web-based interface to a local Eucalyptus cloud and/or AWS services.

Run python setup.py develop to set up the development environment. This only needs to be run once or when the "requires" package versions in setup.py are modified.

Note: It is strongly recommended to set up the development environment in a virtualenv.

The CSS files are pre-processed using Sass, so you'll need to set up a Sass-to-CSS watcher to output CSS.

To set up Compass as the file watcher...

sudo gem install compass cd koala/static compass watch .

Once you have installed compass, there's a handy shortcut to enable the watcher. From the repo root...

make watch

To run the server, you will need to specify the path to the config file (console.ini). Copy the default ini file to the application root. At the repo root...

cp conf/console.default.ini ./console.ini

The default settings assume an SSL environment. To disable SSL, set session.secure to false in console.ini

session.secure = false

Run the server with

./launcher.sh

launcher.sh is provided as an alias for pserve console.ini

To have Pyramid automatically detect modifications to templates and views,

1. Change the reload_templates setting to true in console.ini: pyramid.reload_templates = true
2. Run the server with the --reload flag: pserve console.ini --reload

The --reload flag instructs Pyramid to automatically watch for changes in the view callables.

The Pyramid Debug Toolbar can be enabled by adding pyramid_debugtoolbar to the app:main section of console.ini

[app:main] # ... pyramid.includes =

pyramid_beaker pyramid_chameleon pyramid_debugtoolbar pyramid_layout

You may also find it useful to set the logging level to DEBUG in the console.ini config file...

[logger_root] # ... handlers = logfile, screen_debug

The management console assumes an SSL setup. To disable SSL for development purposes, set session.secure = false in the config file (console.ini)
