Timur Sufiev 05f4f22b9e Implement auto-completion field in Merlin
Also provide first approach to changing dependent field on field
change according to schema received by $http AJAX call.

This commit includes updated angular-bootstrap code is well for the
typeahead plugin to work with ng-model-options="{getterSetter: true}"
option. The ideal solution here would be to create a pull-request to the
angular-bootstrap plugin repo at github, make it merged and then make
the new version to be used in Horizon (and eliminate the need to use the
customized version of angular-bootstrap plugin in Merlin).

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:

  1. The easiest way to always use the latest version of Merlin is by using symlinks. Identify the directory where openstack_dashboard and horizon reside. Let's assume this is /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages and 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
  1. 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/
  1. Restart Horizon web-server. According to the default values in _50_add_mistral_panel.py you would be able to Mistral panel inside the Project dashboard, Orchestration panel group.

How to run Merlin unit-tests locally

  1. cd /home/user/dev/merlin
  2. npm install
  • If npm is not installed yet, run sudo apt-get install npm (let's assume you're using Ubuntu) and sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy
  1. node_modules/.bin/bower install
  2. sudo npm install -g grunt-cli
  3. grunt test:unit
