How to Set up a Development Environment on MacOS X

Notes for hacking and cleaning on Nova on MacOS X

bzr lp-login heckj (your username here, see also [[[LifeWithBzrAndLaunchpad|| learning BZR and Launchpad]]])

sudo easy_install virtualenv

Initial Code Setup:

bzr branch lp:nova
cd nova
python tools/install_venv.py
source .nova_venv/bin/activate
pip install pep8 # submitting patch so that Nova has pep8 and pylint in PIP requirements file
pip install pylint


If you have installed OpenSSL 1.0.0a on MacOS, which can happen when installing a MacPorts package for OpenSSL, you will see an error when running nova.tests.auth_unittest.AuthTestCase.test_209_can_generate_x509. The version that functions correctly is OpenSSL 0.9.8l 5, installed with MacOS 10.6 as a base element.

from http://wiki.openstack.org/InstallationNova20100729 (I do this in a separate window that I hide to let Redis be as noisy as it wants to in the background. Redis won't be needed after the Austin release, most likely.)

cd nova
curl http://redis.googlecode.com/files/redis-2.0.0-rc4.tar.gz -o redis-2.0.0-rc4.tar.gz
tar xvfz redis-2.0.0-rc4.tar.gz
cd redis-2.0.0-rc4
# Make and start Redis server
make
./redis-server &


cd nova
bzr pull # get the latest stuff...
source .nova_venv/bin/activate
redis-2.0.0-rc4/redis-server &
./run_tests.sh

#... do cleaning work ...

bzr push lp:~heckj/nova/cleaning


To submit the merge/patch:

Open questions

  • Once merged in and accepted, does the proposal get closed?
    • Do we then delete this branch and create another with the next cleaning/merge request?
    • Or do we make more changes, push to this branch, and then submit another merge request?
