Installation Instructions
-------------------------
Please note that the following instructions assume that you have an existing
installation of the OpenStack Horizon dashboard application. For Horizon
installation please see
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/quickstart.html
1. Clone the Ironic UI repository::
git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-ui
2. Change into the root directory of your horizon installation and
activate the python virtual environment. Example::
source .venv/bin/activate
.. NOTE:: The ``.venv`` folder is preinstalled when horizon is setup with
``./run_tests.sh``. Do not attempt to reinstall the virtual
environment.
3. Copy the ``_2200_ironic.py`` file from ``ironic_ui/enabled/_2200_ironic.py`` file to
``horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled`` directory. Example, set as if being
executed from the root of the ironic-ui repository::
cp ./ironic_ui/enabled/_2200_ironic.py ../horizon/horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled
4. Change into the ironic-ui repository and package the plugin::
pip install -e .
This will build and install the ironic-ui plugin into the active virtual
environment associated with your horizon installation. The plugin is installed
in "editable" mode as a link back to your ironic-ui plugin directory.
Also ensure that all packages as per requirements.txt have been installed.
5. Change back into the horizon repository and bring up your environment::
./run_tests.sh --runserver
The Ironic Bare Metal Provisioning plugin should now be visible in the Horizon
navigation.
Installation Instructions with devstack
---------------------------------------
In order to use the Ironic UI with devstack, you will need to enable the UI plugin separately.
This is done in a similar fashion to enabling Ironic for devstack.
Make sure you have horizon enabled (enabled by default in devstack).
Then, enable the Ironic UI plugin appending the following line to the end of the local.conf file,
just after Ironic plugin enablement:
enable_plugin ironic-ui https://github.com/openstack/ironic-ui
After this, you can run ./stack.sh from the devstack directory.
The Ironic Bare Metal Provisioning plugin should now be visible in the Horizon
navigation.
Uninstallation
--------------
To uninstall, use ``pip uninstall ironic-ui`` from with-in the horizon
virtual environment. You will also need to remove the
``openstack_dashboard/enabled/_2200_ironic.py`` file from the horizon
installation.
