webcan's Introduction

Webcan

Getting Started

Requirements

pyenv with python 3.6.2 installed
A mongodb server

Installing

git clone https://github.com/JonnoFTW/webcan
cd webcan
pyenv local 3.6.2
python setup.py develop

Running

After you've setup the application, you'll need to create the collections and databases required:

Now you can run the application with the following:

export LDAP_SERVER='url.to.ldap'
export LDAP_USERNAME_SUFFIX='suffix.for.ldap.username'
export WEBCAN_MONGO_URI='mongodb://username:[email protected]:27017/webcan'
pserve production.ini http_port=80

It's highly recommend to use an nginx in front of this server with gzip turned on, include the following in your nginx configuration:

upstream webcan {
       server localhost:5000;
}
server {
    listen 6867;
    listen 6868 ssl http2;
    
    ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/nginx-selfsigned.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/nginx-selfsigned.key;
    ssl_dhparam /etc/ssl/certs/dhparam.pem;
    gzip  on;

    gzip_disable "msie6";

    gzip_vary on;
    gzip_proxied any;
    gzip_comp_level 6;
    gzip_buffers 16 8k;
    gzip_http_version 1.1;
    gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript application/zip;

        proxy_pass http://webcan;
                
    }
    location /static {
        root                    /path/to/webcan/webcan/;
        expires                 30d;
