Introduction

Waldur HomePort is a web-based client for the Waldur MasterMind. It uses yarn for dependency management and webpack as module bundler.

Minimal requirements

• Linux Ubuntu, OS X or Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 with Ubuntu
• 2 GB of RAM and 2 GB of storage

Installation

1. Update system and install basic dependencies. Example for Linux Ubuntu:

   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get upgrade
   sudo apt-get install git wget

2. Install Node LTS and yarn:

   wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.5/install.sh | bash
   source ~/.bashrc
   nvm install --lts
   npm install -g yarn

3. Clone project and go to its folder:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd waldur-homeport

4. Install dependencies via yarn:

   yarn

   PS. If you see errors related to fsevents on OS X, the workaround is: yarn cache clean && yarn upgrade && yarn.

5. Create /src/configs/config.json:

   cp src/configs/config.json.example src/configs/config.json

6. Configure config.json.

7. Run application: yarn start.

   Server will listen on //localhost:8001

Backend configuration

Use Waldur MasterMind for backend.

Also you should install django-cors-headers from pip in order to add CORS headers:

pip install django-cors-headers

Then you should update waldur_core/server/settings.py and add the following lines at the end of the file:

INSTALLED_APPS += ('corsheaders',)
MIDDLEWARE = ('corsheaders.middleware.CorsMiddleware',) + MIDDLEWARE
CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL = True
CORS_EXPOSE_HEADERS = (
    'x-result-count',
    'Link',
    'x-impersonated-user-uuid',
)

# enable support for impersonation headers
from corsheaders.defaults import default_headers

CORS_ALLOW_HEADERS = (
    *default_headers,
    "X-Impersonated-User-Uuid",
)
