[[PageOutline(2-5,Contents,pullout)]] = Admin Toolkit - scripts for managing multiple Trac environments = == Update == An early release candidate of the Admin Toolkit 0.6rc1 is available. The documentation is out of date and the Apache configuration has changed. We assume no liability or responsibility for anything untoward that may happen. == Description == The Admin Toolkit is a collection of Python scripts (developed specifically for Linux) that facilitate the management of new and existing Trac projects on a single server, including support for Apache (.htpasswd file), Trac & Subversion (via !WebDav) and database backends (currently only Postgresql). The scripts make it easy to manage multiple Trac environments on a single server. Authentication is supported using a single .htpasswd file - one .htpasswd file is maintained for all projects but support for per-project authentication is in development. Creating a new Trac environment, Postgresql database and Subversion repository is as simple as typing trac-admin-mkproject, hitting return and answering a few questions. The current list of scripts is: * trac-admin-init - prepare the disk for a new development environment * trac-admin-mkproject - create a Subversion repository, Postgresql database and Trac environment for one project * trac-admin-rmproject - remove the Subversion repository, Postgresql database and Trac environment for an existing project * trac-admin-useradd - add a user (currently one user has access to all projects) * trac-admin-userdel - remove an existing user * trac-admin-promote - promote a user to administrator on one of more projects * trac-admin-demote - remove administrator privileges for a user on one of more projects '''Configuration''' Subversion repositories and Trac environments are assumed to be in /srv/svn and /srv/trac though this is configurable. Access to Subversion is via: {{{ svn co http://localhost/repos//trunk }}} And Trac projects are accessed via: {{{ http://localhost/trac/ }}} Two Apache configuration files are therefore needed (and are included in the Admin Toolkit): * subversion.conf {{{ DAV svn SVNParentPath /srv/svn # Limit write permission to list of valid users. # Require SSL connection for password protection. # SSLRequireSSL AuthType Basic AuthName "somename" AuthUserFile /srv/.htpasswd Require valid-user }}} * trac.conf {{{ SetHandler mod_python PythonInterpreter main_interpreter PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend PythonOption TracEnvParentDir /srv/trac PythonOption TracUriRoot /trac AuthType Basic AuthName "somename" AuthUserFile /srv/.htpasswd Require valid-user }}} '''Authentication''' Authentication is via a single Apache .htpasswd file for all projects; that is, each developer has global access to all projects. A change to the Admin Toolkit that implements per project authentication is in development. The .htpasswd file is located in: {{{ /srv/.htpasswd }}} This file is also managed by the Admin Toolkit. == Bugs/Feature Requests == Existing bugs and feature requests for AdminToolkitScript are [report:9?COMPONENT=AdminToolkitScript here]. If you have any issues, create a [http://trac-hacks.org/newticket?component=AdminToolkitScript&owner=stodge new ticket]. == Download == Download the zipped source from [download:admintoolkitscript here]. == Source == You can check out AdminToolkitScript from [http://trac-hacks.org/svn/admintoolkitscript here] using Subversion, or [source:admintoolkitscript browse the source] with Trac. == Example == To create a new Trac environment, run: trac-admin-mkproject And answer a few questions. To delete the project, run: trac-admin-rmproject == Recent Changes == [[ChangeLog(admintoolkitscript, 3)]] == Author/Contributors == '''Author:''' [wiki:mstoddart] [[BR]] '''Maintainer:''' [wiki:mstoddart] [[BR]] '''Contributors:'''
