Mission Control - allows for easy launching of apps on Marathon
Project description
A project launcher for Marathon
Installation
To install using a terminal:
$ virtualenv ve $ source ve/bin/activate (ve)$ pip install mc2 (ve)$ ve/bin/django-admin migrate --noinput
Running
Because this system uses GitHub with OAuth2 for authentication there are a few steps one needs to complete in order to get a working system:
Create a super user:
(ve)$ ve/bin/django-admin createsuperuser
Start the application on local address 127.0.0.1:8000:
(ve)$ ve/bin/django-admin runserver
OAuth works with HTTP based callbacks & token exchange, for this to work our local server needs to be reachable on the Internet. Ngrok is a great utility that allows for this. Follow the installation instructions on the Ngrok website for your operating system. Once installed run:
$ ngrok 8000
This will generate a random ngrok.com subdomain for you on which your local server will be reachable. The random subdomain address is useful for adhoc testing but we would recommend you use something predictable. This can be done using the -subdomain command line argument:
$ ngrok -subdomain mytestingtunnel 8000
Next you need to generate a pair of secret keys for OAuth in your GitHub account. You can do this at https://github.com/settings/applications/new:
Once saved, GitHub will have generated the unique keys you will need to complete the OAuth setup:
TODO: update section on local_settings.py
Next create a local_settings.py file in the project directory with the following:
GITHUB_REPO_NAME_SUFFIX = "-prod"
GITHUB_ORGANIZATION = "universalcore"
SOCIAL_AUTH_GITHUB_KEY = "<client-id-from-github>"
SOCIAL_AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET = "<client-secret-from-github>"
Once all this is done visit Mission Control via your custom http://mytestingtunnel.ngrok.com tunnel and sign-up via GitHub.
You’ll be greeted with an empty page since no applications have been created yet. Only Django superusers are allowed to create new applications. You’ll need to login into the Django admin page as the superuser you created earlier and promote the account created via GitHub to being a super user to expose the application creation features.
