Instructions on integrating Merlin extensions into Horizon
Although the repo contains directories meant to be used as Django apps (with templates, static files, urls & views), the whole project is not meant to be run as a standalone Django web-application (with its own settings.py etc). Instead, it should be embedded into running Horizon instance. To do so you should perform the following steps:
- The easiest way to always use the latest version of Merlin is by using
symlinks. Identify the directory where
openstack_dashboardandhorizonreside. Let's assume this is/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packagesand merlin repo is located at/home/user/dev/merlin. Then run the following commands
# for main Merlin sources
ln -s /home/user/dev/merlin/merlin /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/merlin
# for files of the Merlin's Mistral extension
ln -s /home/user/dev/merlin/extensions/mistral /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mistral
- Next thing to do is add panel with Mistral Workbook builder (a Merlin extension) into Horizon. To do it, copy the pluggable config for the Mistral panel:
cp /home/user/dev/merlin/extensions/enabled/_50_add_mistral_panel.py /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/openstack_dashboard/enabled/
- Restart Horizon web-server. According to the default values in
_50_add_mistral_panel.pyyou would be able to Mistral panel inside the Project dashboard, Orchestration panel group.
How to run Merlin unit-tests locally
cd /home/user/dev/merlinnpm install
- If npm is not installed yet, run
sudo apt-get install npm(let's assume you're using Ubuntu) andsudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
node_modules/.bin/bower installsudo npm install -g grunt-cligrunt test:unit
