# Installation instructions

## Configuration template

[dashboard/local_settings.example.py](../dashboard/local_settings.example.py)
contains a configuration template that may be used to create production
configuration file to override [dashboard/settings.py](../dashboard/settings.py).

Please copy local_settings.example.py to local_settings.py and make
changes to the newly copied file.

## Static files

In order to serve static files, please run the following command before
running the Dashbaord server:

```bash
yes yes | python manage.py collectstatic
```

This command will gather all static assets from all the modules in
Dashbaord and place them in `static/` in the base directory.

## Cron jobs

Run cron job at an interval of your choosing with the following comamnd:

```bash
python manage.py rm_unverified_users
```

It will delete all users that are below maximum tolerated duration
unverified users, as configured in settings.py:

```python
HOSTEA = {
	# <--snip--->
    "ACCOUNTS": {"MAX_VERIFICATION_TOLERANCE_PERIOD": 60 * 60 * 24},  # in seconds
}
```

In future, the cronjob will be run as part of the Hostea/Dashbaord and
hence the current redundancy in configuration and cronjob duration.

## Support Platform Integration

Hostea Dashbaord delegates support to Hostea's meta Forgejo instance, as
discussed [here](https://forgejo.gna.org/Hostea/july-mvp/issues/17).

To configure support platform integration , please set the following
attributes in `settings.py`:

```python
HOSTEA = {
	# <--snip--->
    "META": {
	# <--snip--->
        "FORGEJO_INSTANCE": "https://forgejo.gna.org", # meta Forgejo insatnce
        "FORGEJO_ORG_NAME": "Hostea", # Organisation name on Hostea meta instance
        # Repository dedicated for handling support
        # ref: https://forgejo.gna.org/Hostea/july-mvp/issues/17
        "SUPPORT_REPOSITORY": "support",
    },
}
```

## Payments

At present, we rely on [Stripe](https://stripe.com) for processing
payments. So we are limited to the countries at which Stripe operates.

To deploy payments, please configure the options in settins.py that
start with `PAYMENT_*`

**NOTE: Please don't change the `PAYMENT_MODEL`. Changing it will
break the app**

```python
## django-payments configuration

PAYMENT_MODEL = "billing.Payment" # please don't change this value
 # the URL at which Dashbaord will be listening
PAYMENT_HOST = "http://localhost:8000"
PAYMENT_VARIANTS = {
    "stripe": (
        "payments.stripe.StripeProvider",
        {
			# stripe API secret key, available in Stripe dashboard
            "secret_key": env.get_value("STRIPE_SECRET_KEY"),
			# stripe API public key, available in Stripe dashboard
            "public_key": env.get_value("STRIPE_PUBLIC_KEY"),
        },
    )
}
```

## Infrastructure(via [Enough](https://enough.community))

```python
HOSTEA = {
# <------snip-------->
    "INFRA": {
        "HOSTEA_REPO": {
            # where to clone the repository
            "PATH": "/srv/hostea/dashboard/infrastructure",
            # Git remote URI of the repository
            "REMOTE": "git@localhost:Hostea/enough.git",
            # SSH key that can push to the Git repository remote mentioned above
            "SSH_KEY": "/srv/hostea/deploy",
        },
    },
```
