Use pip to install the package on the server running Horizon. Then either copy or link the files in trove_dashboard/enabled to openstack_dashboard/local/enabled. This step will cause the Horizon service to pick up the trove plugin when it starts.
Add the following to your devstack local.conf
file:
enable_plugin trove-dashboard git://git.openstack.org/openstack/trove-dashboard
./run_tests.sh
Make a change to trove-dashboard then goto to the horizon directory and compress the code with django and then restart apache.:
# rsync code to /opt/stack/trove-dashboard
# copy or link files from trove-dashboard/enabled/* to horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled/
cd /opt/stack/horizon
python manage.py compress
python manage.py collectstatic --noinput
sudo service apache2 restart
You can also speed up development time using the django test server instead of apache.:
/opt/stack/horizon/run_tests.sh --runserver
If you set COMPRESS_ENABLED and COMPRESS_OFFLINE to False in local_settings.py that allows you to bypass the compress and collectstatic as well.
As of the Mitaka release, the dashboard for trove is now maintained outside of the Horizon codebase, in this repository.
