# Manual installation instructions These intructions are inspired from a standard django/gunicorn/postgresql instructions ([for example](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-django-with-postgres-nginx-and-gunicorn-on-ubuntu-16-04)) !!! warning Be sure to use python 3.9 and pip related to python 3.9. Depending on your distribution calling `python` or `pip` will use python2 instead of python 3.9. ## Prerequisites Setup user: `sudo useradd recipes` Get the last version from the repository: `git clone https://github.com/vabene1111/recipes.git -b master` Move it to the `/var/www` directory: `mv recipes /var/www` Change to the directory: `cd /var/www/recipes` Give the user permissions: `chown -R recipes:www-data /var/www/recipes` Create virtual env: `python3.9 -m venv /var/www/recipes` Install Javascript Tools ```shell apt install nodejs npm install --global yarn ``` ### Install postgresql requirements `sudo apt install libpq-dev postgresql` ###Install project requirements !!! warning "Update" Dependencies change with most updates so the following steps need to be re-run with every update or else the application might stop working. See section **Updating** below Using binaries from the virtual env: `/var/www/recipes/bin/pip3.9 install -r requirements.txt` You will also need to install front end requirements and build them. For this navigate to the `./vue`folder and run ```shell yarn install yarn build ``` ## Setup postgresql `sudo -u postgres psql` In the psql console: ```sql CREATE DATABASE djangodb; CREATE USER djangouser WITH PASSWORD 'password'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE djangodb TO djangouser; ALTER DATABASE djangodb OWNER TO djangouser; --Maybe not necessary, but should be faster: ALTER ROLE djangouser SET client_encoding TO 'utf8'; ALTER ROLE djangouser SET default_transaction_isolation TO 'read committed'; ALTER ROLE djangouser SET timezone TO 'UTC'; --Grant superuser right to your new user, it will be removed later ALTER USER djangouser WITH SUPERUSER; ``` Download the `.env` configuration file and **edit it accordingly**. ```shell wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vabene1111/recipes/develop/.env.template -O /var/www/recipes/.env ``` Things to edit: - `SECRET_KEY`: use something secure. - `POSTGRES_HOST`: probably 127.0.0.1. - `POSTGRES_PASSWORD`: the password we set earlier when setting up djangodb. - `STATIC_URL`, `MEDIA_URL`: these will be in `/var/www/recipes`, under `/staticfiles/` and `/mediafiles/` respectively. ## Initialize the application Execute `export $(cat /var/www/recipes/.env |grep "^[^#]" | xargs)` to load variables from `/var/www/recipes/.env` Execute `bin/python3.9 manage.py migrate` and revert superuser from postgres: `sudo -u postgres psql` and `ALTER USER djangouser WITH NOSUPERUSER;` Generate static files: `bin/python3.9 manage.py collectstatic` and `bin/python3.9 manage.py collectstatic_js_reverse` and remember the folder where files have been copied. ## Setup web services ### gunicorn Create a service that will start gunicorn at boot: `sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/gunicorn_recipes.service` And enter these lines: ```service [Unit] Description=gunicorn daemon for recipes After=network.target [Service] Type=simple Restart=always RestartSec=3 User=recipes Group=www-data WorkingDirectory=/var/www/recipes EnvironmentFile=/var/www/recipes/.env ExecStart=/var/www/recipes/bin/gunicorn --error-logfile /tmp/gunicorn_err.log --log-level debug --capture-output --bind unix:/var/www/recipes/recipes.sock recipes.wsgi:application [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ``` *Note*: `-error-logfile /tmp/gunicorn_err.log --log-level debug --capture-output` are usefull for debugging and can be removed later *Note2*: Fix the path in the `ExecStart` line to where you gunicorn and recipes are Finally, run `sudo systemctl enable gunicorn_recipes` and `sudo systemctl start gunicorn_recipes`. You can check that the service is correctly started with `systemctl status gunicorn_recipes` ### nginx Now we tell nginx to listen to a new port and forward that to gunicorn. `sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/recipes.conf` And enter these lines: ```nginx server { listen 8002; #access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log; #error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log; # serve media files location /static { alias /var/www/recipes/staticfiles; } location /media { alias /var/www/recipes/mediafiles; } location / { proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_pass http://unix:/var/www/recipes/recipes.sock; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; } } ``` *Note*: Enter the correct path in static and proxy_pass lines. Reload nginx : `sudo systemctl reload nginx` ## Updating In order to update the application you will need to run the following commands (probably best to put them into a small script). ```shell # Update source files git pull # load envirtonment variables export $(cat /var/www/recipes/.env |grep "^[^#]" | xargs) # migrate database bin/python3.9 manage.py migrate # collect static files bin/python3.9 manage.py collectstatic bin/python3.9 manage.py collectstatic_js_reverse # change to frontend directory cd vue # install and build frontend yarn install yarn build # restart gunicorn service sudo systemctl restart gunicorn_recipes ```
