clutchserver 0.1.0

The server component for Clutch framework and Cluth A/B Testing.

Clutch.io

Clutch.io is two projects:

• Native A/B testing for iOS and Android

• A toolkit for developing hybrid native/HTML applications for iOS

You may be interested in one or the other, but this project is the server component for both projects.

Prerequisites

• Python 2.6 or Greater

• PostgreSQL (including the required headers to compile psycopg2)

• libevent 2.0.20

• S3 Account (for hybrid native/html application framework ONLY)

Installing and Running Clutch.io

Before you get started, make sure all of the prerequisites are installed and that PostgreSQL is running. Now we need to create a Clutch user and database:

createuser -s clutch

createdb -E utf8 –owner=clutch clutch

Next we need to install Clutch:

easy_install clutchserver

Now we will generate a configuration file used to setup ports and such:

clutch-config > conf.py

You can check the configuration defaults provided by clutch-config and decide whether they are right for your setup. For most people, the defaults should be just fine. When you’re ready, let’s start up the server:

clutch-all conf.py

That’s it, you’re now running Clutch.io! Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/ to see it in action.

More Documentation

See http://clutchio.github.com/

Local Documentation

To generate a local copy of the above documentation, first check out this repo:

git clone https://github.com/clutchio/clutch.git

Make sure you have Sphinx installed so that you can generate the docs:

easy_install Sphinx==1.1.3

Now change to the docs directory and make the docs

cd clutch/docs make html

Finally, open the docs:

open _build/html/index.html

Tests

To run the tests, generate a test configuration file using clutch-config like above, but instead of using clutch-all to run it, use clutch-test:

clutch-test conf.py

This is one area where this project could use a lot of help. If you’re interested in contributing, helping out by improving our test coverage is a great place to start!
