561 In a production environment, you might want to have multiple
562 local instances of the Toaster Logging Interface running on
563 various remote build machines, and have those local instances
564 access and use a single web server.

609 <listitem><para><emphasis>Install and Set up the Database Server:</emphasis>
610 You can use any SQL server out of the box.
611 It is recommended that you use
612 <filename>mysql-server</filename> because it has
613 the advantages of advanced SQL features along with a
614 fast and reliable database.
615 However, setting up <filename>mysql-server</filename>
616 is more complex and might require a Database
617 Administrator to tune it.</para>
618 <para>Another supported database backend is
619 <filename>sqlite3</filename>.
620 With <filename>sqlite3</filename>, you have the
621 advantage of no configuration and an easy installation.
622 However, Toaster still requires direct access to the
623 backend.
624 The <filename>sqlite</filename> backend is also slower
625 as compared to <filename>mysql-server</filename>, and
626 has no transactional support.</para>
627 <para>You should set up proper username and password
628 access on the shared database for everyone that will
629 be using Toaster.
630 You need administrator rights for the root account,
631 which is not the same thing as root access on the
632 machine.
633 Here is an example that installs
634 <filename>mysql-server</filename> and sets up
635 some user accounts and the database.
636 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
637 $ apt-get install mysql-server
638 $ mysql -u root
639 mysql> CREATE USER 'newuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
640 mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'newuser'@'localhost';
641 mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'newuser'@'localhost';
642 mysql> CREATE DATABASE 'toaster';
643 </literallayout>
644 You need a separate clone of the
645 <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#source-repositories'>Source Repositories</ulink>
646 for the Database Server.
647 This clone is only used for getting the latest Toaster
648 files.
649 You can set this up using the following Git command.
650 Be sure to set up the directory outside of any
651 Build Directories.
652 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
653 $ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
654 </literallayout>
655 In the separately cloned tree for the Database Server,
656 edit the
657 <filename>bitbake/lib/toaster/toastermain/settings.py</filename>
658 file so that the <filename>DATABASES</filename> value
659 points to the previously created database server.
660 Use the username and password established
661 earlier.
662 Here is an example:
663 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
664 $ cat /opt/bitbake/lib/toaster/toastermain/settings.py
665 ...
666 DATABASES = {
667 'default': {

670 'USER': 'newuser',
671 'PASSWORD': 'password',

677 </para></listitem>
678 <listitem><para><emphasis>Install and Set Up the Web Server:</emphasis>
679 For a production environment, it is recommended that
680 you install and set up a front-end web server.
681 This server allows for load balancing and
682 multi-threading over Toaster and
683 <ulink url='https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/howto/deployment/wsgi/'><filename>django</filename> WSGI</ulink>.
684 Here is an example that uses Apache web server.

982 sources, and BitBake versions.</para>
983 <para>Verify that your releases have been loaded correctly by
984 using the Toaster web interface to create a new
985 project.
986 Check the "Releases" dropdown menu to be sure your
987 newly specified releases exist.</para>
988 <para>If you want to use the administration interface
989 for this step, here is a set of example commands
990 with some descriptions as an example:
991 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
992 # Create the user under which the builds will run
993 $ adduser poky
994
995 # Bring up the administration interface
996 $xdg-open http://<replaceable>server-address</replaceable>/admin/
997
998 # Login with the admin user previously created
999
1000 # Go to the BuildEnvironment object in Build Environments and
1001 # set address to local host, sourcedir to /home/poky, and
1002 # builddir to /home/pokybuild.
1003 #
1004 # Save your changes and exit
1005
1006 # Go to Home, Layer Sources and select add Layer Source
1007 # Name: OpenEmbedded, Sourcetype: layerindex,
1008 # Apiurl: http://layers openembedded.org/layerindex/api/
1009 # Save your changes and exit
1010
1011 # Go to Home, Bitbake Versions, Add bitbake version;
1012 # Take version information from: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/refs/heads,
1013 # This example assumes "master" version.
1014 # set Name: master, Giturl git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake
1015 # branch master, dirpath /
1016 # Save your changes and exit
1017 </literallayout>
1018 You also need to configure the project releases, the
1019 default variables, and update information from the
1020 layer index.
1021 Continuing with the example:
1022 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1023 # Go to Home, Releases, Add release
1024 # set Name: master, Description: Current master release, select Bitbake Version,
1025 # and Branch: master
1026 # Save your changes and exit
1027
1028 # Go to Home, Toaster Settings, select the Setting for DEFAULT_RELEASE
1029 # set Helptext: This selects the default release., Value: master
1030 # Save your changes and exit
1031
1032 # Go to Home, Bitbake Versions, Add bitbake version;
1033 # take version information from : http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/refs/heads,
1034 # this manual assumes the master version
1035 # set Name: master, Giturl git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake

1042 For reference information on Toaster-specific
1043 <filename>manage.py</filename> commands, see the
1044 "<link linkend='toaster-useful-commands'>Useful Commands</link>"
1045 section.
1046 </para></listitem>
1047 <listitem><para><emphasis>Install and Set up the Database Server:</emphasis>
1048 You can use any SQL server out of the box.
1049 It is recommended that you use
1050 <filename>mysql-server</filename> because it has
1051 the advantages of advanced SQL features along with a
1052 fast and reliable database.
1053 However, setting up <filename>mysql-server</filename>
1054 is more complex and might require a Database
1055 Administrator to tune it.</para>
1056 <para>Another supported database backend is
1057 <filename>sqlite3</filename>.
1058 With <filename>sqlite3</filename>, you have the
1059 advantage of no configuration and an easy installation.
1060 However, Toaster still requires direct access to the
1061 backend.
1062 The <filename>sqlite</filename> backend is also slower
1063 as compared to <filename>mysql-server</filename>, and
1064 has no transactional support.</para>
1065 <para>You should set up proper username and password
1066 access on the shared database for everyone that will
1067 be using Toaster.
1068 You need administrator rights for the root account,
1069 which is not the same thing as root access on the
1070 machine.
1071 Here is an example that installs
1072 <filename>mysql-server</filename> and sets up
1073 some user accounts and the database.
1074 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1075 $ apt-get install mysql-server
1076 $ mysql -u root
1077 mysql> CREATE USER 'newuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
1078 mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'newuser'@'localhost';
1079 mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'newuser'@'localhost';
1080 mysql> CREATE DATABASE 'toaster';
1081 </literallayout>
1082 You need a separate clone of the
1083 <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#source-repositories'>Source Repositories</ulink>
1084 for the Database Server.
1085 This clone is only used for getting the latest Toaster
1086 files.
1087 You can set this up using the following Git command.
1088 Be sure to set up the directory outside of any
1089 Build Directories.
1090 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1091 $ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
1092 </literallayout>
1093 In the separately cloned tree for the Database Server,
1094 edit the
1095 <filename>bitbake/lib/toaster/toastermain/settings.py</filename>
1096 file so that the <filename>DATABASES</filename> value
1097 points to the previously created database server.
1098 Use the username and password established
1099 earlier.
1100 Here is an example:
1101 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1102 $ cat /opt/bitbake/lib/toaster/toastermain/settings.py
1103 ...
1104 DATABASES = {
1105 'default': {

1107 'NAME': 'toaster',
1108 'USER': 'newuser',
1109 'PASSWORD': 'password',
1110 'HOST': '192.168.0.25',
1111 'PORT': '3306',
1112 }
1113 ...
1114 </literallayout>
1115 </para></listitem>
1116 <listitem><para><emphasis>Create the Database</emphasis>
1117 Use the following commands to create the default
1118 database structure:
1119 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1120 $ bitbake/lib/toaster/manage.py syncdb
1121 $ bitbake/lib/toaster/manage.py migrate orm
1122 $ bitbake/lib/toaster/manage.py migrate bldcontrol
1123 </literallayout>
1124 The interface asks you if you want to create a
1125 superuser.
1126 Do not skip this step.
1127 You will use the superuser account to access the
1128 administration interface and make changes to the
1129 Toaster configuration.
1130 </para></listitem>
1131 <listitem><para><emphasis>Select Where the Build Process Takes Place:</emphasis>
1132 You need to create three directories for storing
1133 build artifacts, downloading sources, and running
1134 builds.
1135 All three directories need to be writable by
1136 the user, which is "poky" in this example.
1137 The build artifacts directory needs to readable by the
1138 apache user.
1139 You also need free disk space in the range of
1140 100 Gbytes.
1141 Following are three suggested directories:
1142 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1143 /home/poky/buildartifacts/

1177 section.
1178 </para></listitem>
1179 <listitem><para><emphasis>Install and Set Up the Web Server:</emphasis>
1180 For a production environment, it is recommended that
1181 you install and set up a front-end web server.
1182 This server allows for load balancing and
1183 multi-threading over Toaster and
1184 <ulink url='https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/howto/deployment/wsgi/'><filename>django</filename> WSGI</ulink>.
1185 Here is an example that uses Apache web server:
1186 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1187 $ apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-wsgi
1188 $ a2enmod wsgi
1189 $ cat /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
1190
1191 ...
1192
1193 # the WSGIPythonPath is global
1194 WSGIPythonPath /opt/bitbake/lib/toaster/

1204 &lt;/Files&gt;
1205 &lt;/Directory&gt;
1206
1207 ...
1208 </literallayout>
1209 You need to collect static media from Toaster and
1210 continue configuring Apache to serve that static
1211 media:
1212 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1213 $ mkdir /var/www.html/static &amp;&amp; cd /var/www.html/static
1214 $ /opt bitbake/lib/toaster/manage.py collectstatic

1233 <listitem><para><emphasis>Start Toaster:</emphasis>
1234 Synchronize the databases for Toaster, and then start
1235 up the web server.
1236 Here is an example that continues with the assumed

1249 section.
1250 </para></listitem>
1251 <listitem><para><emphasis>Set up Build Control and Open the Web Interface:</emphasis>
1252 You need to run the build control manager.
1253 You can do this as shown in the following example:
1254 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1255 # as the "poky" user, start the runbuilds command in a loop (or put it in crontab!)
1256 $ sudo -i -u poky

1258
1259 # open up the web interface
1260 $ xdg-open http://[server-address]/toastergui/
1261 </literallayout>
1262 It is suggested that you enable build control by
1263 setting <filename>runbuilds</filename> in the
1264 <filename>crontab</filename> as follows:
1265 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1266 $ crontab -l

1268 </literallayout>
1269 </para></listitem>
1270 <listitem><para><emphasis>Open the Browser:</emphasis>
1271 Once the Apache server is running, connect to it with
1272 your favorite browser and verify that the Toaster
1273 interface comes up:
1274 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1275 http://localhost:8000/toastergui

1277 You can track accesses and errors in the Apache
