Installing on your dotCloud application

Create an account at http://monupco.com

Add a dependency in your requirements.txt file

echo monupco-dotcloud-python >> requirements.txt

Enable the registration script in your postinstall hook. Note: If you are using an “approot” your postinstall script should be in the directory pointed by the “approot” directive of your dotcloud.yml. For more information about postinstall turn to http://docs.dotcloud.com/guides/postinstall/.

If a file named postinstall doesn’t already exist, create it and add the following:

#!/bin/sh
/home/dotcloud/env/bin/monupco-dotcloud-python

Make postinstall executable

chmod a+x postinstall

Commit your changes (if using git):

git add .
git commit -m "enable monupco registration"

Configure your Monupco userID. You can get it from https://monupco-otb.rhcloud.com/profiles/mine/.

dotcloud var set <app name> MONUPCO_USER_ID=UserID

Generate a unique identifier for this application and save the value as environmental variable.

dotcloud var set <app name> MONUPCO_UUID=`uuidgen`

Then push your application to dotCloud

dotcloud push <app name>

If everything goes well you should see something like:

19:55:10 [www.0] Running postinstall script...
19:55:13 [www.0] response:200
19:55:13 [www.0] Monupco: Success, registered/updated application with id 10

That’s it, you can now check your application statistics at http://monupco.com
