.. _Base DN:
Base DN : required
The Distinguished Name (DN) where searches for users will be performed.
Searches can be controlled by `LDAP Filter`_ and `LDAP Search Scope`_.
.. _LDAP Filter:
LDAP Filter : optional
A LDAP filter defined by RFC 2254. This is more useful when `LDAP
Search Scope`_ is set to SUBTREE. The filter is useful for limiting
which LDAP objects are identified as representing Users for
authentication. The filter is augmented by `Login Attribute`_ below.
This can commonly be left blank.
.. _LDAP Search Scope:
LDAP Search Scope : required
This limits how far LDAP will search for a matching object.
BASE
Only allows searching of `Base DN`_ and is usually not what you
want.
ONELEVEL
Searches all entries under `Base DN`_, but not Base DN itself.
SUBTREE
Searches all entries below `Base DN`_, but not Base DN itself.
When using SUBTREE `LDAP Filter`_ is useful to limit object
location.
.. _Login Attribute:
Login Attribute : required
The LDAP record attribute that will be matched as the USERNAME or
ACCOUNT used to connect to RhodeCode. This will be added to `LDAP
Filter`_ for locating the User object. If `LDAP Filter`_ is specified as
"LDAPFILTER", `Login Attribute`_ is specified as "uid" and the user has
connected as "jsmith" then the `LDAP Filter`_ will be augmented as below
::
(&(LDAPFILTER)(uid=jsmith))
.. _ldap_attr_firstname:
First Name Attribute : required
The LDAP record attribute which represents the user's first name.
.. _ldap_attr_lastname:
Last Name Attribute : required
The LDAP record attribute which represents the user's last name.
.. _ldap_attr_email:
Email Attribute : required
The LDAP record attribute which represents the user's email address.
If all data are entered correctly, and python-ldap_ is properly installed
users should be granted access to RhodeCode with ldap accounts. At this
time user information is copied from LDAP into the RhodeCode user database.
This means that updates of an LDAP user object may not be reflected as a
user update in RhodeCode.
If You have problems with LDAP access and believe You entered correct
information check out the RhodeCode logs, any error messages sent from LDAP
will be saved there.
Active Directory
''''''''''''''''
RhodeCode can use Microsoft Active Directory for user authentication. This
is done through an LDAP or LDAPS connection to Active Directory. The
following LDAP configuration settings are typical for using Active
Directory ::
Base DN = OU=SBSUsers,OU=Users,OU=MyBusiness,DC=v3sys,DC=local
Login Attribute = sAMAccountName
First Name Attribute = givenName
Last Name Attribute = sn
E-mail Attribute = mail
All other LDAP settings will likely be site-specific and should be
appropriately configured.
Hook management
---------------
Hooks can be managed in similar way to this used in .hgrc files.
To access hooks setting click `advanced setup` on Hooks section of Mercurial
Settings in Admin.
There are 4 built in hooks that cannot be changed (only enable/disable by
checkboxes on previos section).
To add another custom hook simply fill in first section with
<name>.<hook_type> and the second one with hook path. Example hooks
can be found at *rhodecode.lib.hooks*.
Setting Up Celery
-----------------
Since version 1.1 celery is configured by the rhodecode ini configuration files.
Simply set use_celery=true in the ini file then add / change the configuration
variables inside the ini file.
Remember that the ini files use the format with '.' not with '_' like celery.
So for example setting `BROKER_HOST` in celery means setting `broker.host` in
the config file.
In order to start using celery run::
paster celeryd <configfile.ini>
.. note::
Make sure you run this command from the same virtualenv, and with the same
user that rhodecode runs.
HTTPS support
-------------
There are two ways to enable https:
- Set HTTP_X_URL_SCHEME in your http server headers, than rhodecode will
recognize this headers and make proper https redirections
- Alternatively, change the `force_https = true` flag in the ini configuration
to force using https, no headers are needed than to enable https
Nginx virtual host example
--------------------------
Sample config for nginx using proxy::
server {
listen 80;
server_name hg.myserver.com;
access_log /var/log/nginx/rhodecode.access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/rhodecode.error.log;
location / {
root /var/www/rhodecode/rhodecode/public/;
if (!-f $request_filename){
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000;
}
#this is important if you want to use https !!!
proxy_set_header X-Url-Scheme $scheme;
include /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;
Here's the proxy.conf. It's tuned so it will not timeout on long
pushes or large pushes::
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Proxy-host $proxy_host;
client_max_body_size 400m;
client_body_buffer_size 128k;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_connect_timeout 7200;
proxy_send_timeout 7200;
proxy_read_timeout 7200;
proxy_buffers 8 32k;
Also, when using root path with nginx you might set the static files to false
in the production.ini file::
[app:main]
use = egg:rhodecode
full_stack = true
static_files = false
lang=en
cache_dir = %(here)s/data
In order to not have the statics served by the application. This improves speed.
Apache virtual host example
---------------------------
Apache virtual host reverse proxy example
-----------------------------------------
Here is a sample configuration file for apache using proxy::
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName hg.myserver.com
ServerAlias hg.myserver.com
<Proxy *>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Proxy>
#important !
#Directive to properly generate url (clone url) for pylons
ProxyPreserveHost On
#rhodecode instance
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:5000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:5000/
#to enable https use line below
#SetEnvIf X-Url-Scheme https HTTPS=1
</VirtualHost>

Apache as subdirectory
----------------------
Apache subdirectory part::
<Location /<someprefix> >
ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:5000/<someprefix>
ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:5000/<someprefix>
SetEnvIf X-Url-Scheme https HTTPS=1
</Location>
Besides the regular apache setup you will need to add the following line
into [app:main] section of your .ini file::
filter-with = proxy-prefix
Add the following at the end of the .ini file::
[filter:proxy-prefix]
use = egg:PasteDeploy#prefix
prefix = /<someprefix>
then change <someprefix> into your choosen prefix
Apache's WSGI config
--------------------
Alternatively, RhodeCode can be set up with Apache under mod_wsgi. For
that, you'll need to:
- Install mod_wsgi. If using a Debian-based distro, you can install
the package libapache2-mod-wsgi::
aptitude install libapache2-mod-wsgi
- Enable mod_wsgi::
a2enmod wsgi
- Create a wsgi dispatch script, like the one below. Make sure you
check the paths correctly point to where you installed RhodeCode
and its Python Virtual Environment.
- Enable the WSGIScriptAlias directive for the wsgi dispatch script,
as in the following example. Once again, check the paths are
correctly specified.
Here is a sample excerpt from an Apache Virtual Host configuration file::
WSGIDaemonProcess pylons user=www-data group=www-data processes=1 \
threads=4 \
python-path=/home/web/rhodecode/pyenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/web/rhodecode/dispatch.wsgi
Example wsgi dispatch script::
import os
os.environ["HGENCODING"] = "UTF-8"
os.environ['PYTHON_EGG_CACHE'] = '/home/web/rhodecode/.egg-cache'
# sometimes it's needed to set the curent dir
os.chdir('/home/web/rhodecode/')
import site
site.addsitedir("/home/web/rhodecode/pyenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages")
from paste.deploy import loadapp
from paste.script.util.logging_config import fileConfig
fileConfig('/home/web/rhodecode/production.ini')
application = loadapp('config:/home/web/rhodecode/production.ini')
Note: when using mod_wsgi you'll need to install the same version of
Mercurial that's inside RhodeCode's virtualenv also on the system's Python
environment.
Other configuration files
-------------------------
Some example init.d scripts can be found here, for debian and gentoo:
https://rhodecode.org/rhodecode/files/tip/init.d
Troubleshooting
:Q: **Missing static files?**
:A: Make sure either to set the `static_files = true` in the .ini file or
double check the root path for your http setup. It should point to
for example:
/home/my-virtual-python/lib/python2.6/site-packages/rhodecode/public
|
:Q: **Can't install celery/rabbitmq**
:A: Don't worry RhodeCode works without them too. No extra setup is required.
:Q: **Long lasting push timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a longer timeouts in your proxy/fcgi settings, timeouts
are caused by https server and not RhodeCode.
:Q: **Large pushes timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a proper max_body_size for the http server.
:Q: **Apache doesn't pass basicAuth on pull/push?**
:A: Make sure you added `WSGIPassAuthorization true`.
