OOPS Tools
==========

This is a Django application to analyze OOPS reports
(see https://launchpad.net/python-oops).

Please see https://dev.launchpad.net/LazrStyleGuide and
https://dev.launchpad.net/Hacking for how to develop in this
package.

Dependencies
============

OOPStools uses buildout for configuration.

All dependencies (except for the database packages) are available from the
lazr-source-dependencies branch on Launchpad. Simply typing make will set-up
the download-cache of dependencies eggs and then create the buildout.

If you already have that shared eggs cache branch available locally (to share
between branches of the Lazr project), simply set the LAZR_SOURCEDEPS_DIR to
the directory containing the download-cache and eggs directories before
invoking make.

To run under apache with mod_wsgi (recommended)

* libapache2-mod-wsgi package

To run under apache with mod_python

* libapache2-mod-python package

Deployment using mod_wsgi
=========================

Create a custom cfg file - start with production.cfg and take a copy. Update
your copy with your database configuration and the paths to your OOPS
directories:

[configuration]
db-name = /path/to/your/oops.db
index-template = 'index.html'
oopsdir = /path/where/rsynced/oopses/are/found
/another/such/path

Update settings.py setting a custom SECRET_KEY

To deploy oops tools make sure all the dependecies are installed.

* bin/buildout -c yourfilename.cfg

* Run bin/django syncdb

* Run bin/django migrate

* Copy apache/oops-tools.dev.mod_wsgi to /etc/apache2/sites-available/

AMQP Integration
================

The script bin/amqp2disk is an AMQP handler that will receive OOPS reports over
AMQP and publish them locally to disk as well as loading the metadata directly
into the oops-tools database. To use this you will need to config your OOPS
creation to publish over AMQP. If you are using Python then the oops-amqp
module will help you do this.

Running locally
===============

Sometimes Launchpad developers want to run oops-tools to help analyse locally
generated OOPS reports.

The first step is to setup the local database.

Local PostgreSQL setup
++++++++++++++++++++++

If you do Launchpad development, you probably have PostgreSQL already running
on port 5432. You'll need another cluster to run the oops-tools database.

Create a new cluster for lpoops:

$ LC_ALL=C sudo pg_createcluster 8.4 lpoops --encoding UNICODE --port 5433

Apply the following patch to /etc/postgresql/8.4/lpoops/pg_hba.conf. Note that
this configuration change needs to be before the "DO NOT DISABLE!" line in the
pg_hba.conf file.

sudo patch /etc/postgresql/8.4/lpoops/pg_hba.conf <<'EOF'
--- pg_hba.conf 2005-11-02 17:33:08.000000000 -0800
+++ /tmp/pg_hba.conf 2005-11-03 07:32:46.932400423 -0800
@@ -58,7 +58,9 @@
# on a non-local interface via the listen_addresses configuration parameter,
# or via the -i or -h command line switches.
#
-
+# Oops-tools users
+local all all trust
+host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust


EOF

In case localhost is using IPv6, you'll need an extra line just below the one above.

host all all ::1/128 trust

Start the cluster.

$ sudo pg_ctlcluster 8.4 lpoops start

Add your own user to the cluster:

$ sudo -u postgres /usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/bin/createuser -a -d $USER --port
5433

To create the new db:

$ createuser lpoops --createdb --no-superuser --no-createrole --port 5433
$ createdb -O lpoops lpoops --host localhost --port 5433

Note that this command creates a password-less database. Use --password to
create a db with a password.

To delete the db:

$ dropdb lpoops --port 5433
$ dropuser lpoops --port 5433

Configuration changes
+++++++++++++++++++++

If you used a different port than 5433 for the PostgreSQL setup, pass the
DBPORT variable to make and it'll build the configuration files using the
value provided.

* `make DBPORT=$PORT`
* Run bin/django syncdb
* Run bin/django migrate
* `make run` at the root of the oops-tools directory
* Point your browser to http://localhost:8000/oops

NEXT
====

0.6.1
=====

* Added AMQP support via the bin/amqp2disk script. (Robert Collins)

* Bumped oops-amqp rev to 0.0.3 for bugfixes. (Robert Collins)

* amqp2disk now creates a fanout exchange if --bind-to is supplied.
(Robert Collins)

* amqp2disk -v will print the received OOPS ids on the console, for
entertainment and delight. (Robert Collins)

* OOPS reports with non-ascii URL values are handled by url escaping the URL
bytestring (this is separate to handling of unicode URL values).
(Roman Yepishev, Robert Collins, #881400)

* OOPS reports with unicode URL values are now handled during oops loading: the
unicode string is utf8 encoded (an arbitrary choice) and url escaped.
(Robert Collins, #879309)

* OOPS reports with no topic (formerlly called pageid) will no longer use their
url instead. Rather '' is used, and reports will show Unknown for empty
pageids. (Robert Collins, #880641)

0.6
===

* Initial release

* Add dependency on testtools and fixtures for cleaner tests.

* Fix race conditions with oops loading and non-sequential oopses. These can
occur when e.g. rsync is writing at the same time as oops loading, or if a
non-sequential publisher is used. (Robert Collins, #667373)

* Update to oops-datedir-repo 0.0.7 and add reading of bson serialized oopses
(which are more extensible and more easily parsed). (Robert Collins)
