After some trial-and-error, I was able to get Whimsy up and running this
way. I was alternating between trying to get the non-Docker version working and
the Docker version, so some of this might be mixed up. Either way, this is an
assortment of things to try:
- Start from a clean repo (if you've had failures previously; something got
in a corrupted state for me and had to remove `/private/var/whimsy` and start
over)
- (Might only be needed for non-Docker) Downgrade Ruby to 3.1 (via `brew
install ruby@3.1` and having `/opt/homebrew/opt/ruby@3.1/bin` on the PATH) and
ensure that's what is on the path with `ruby -v`
- `echo "ruby-ldap3" > asfldap.gemname` to use ruby-ldap3 instead of
ruby-ldap, which does not build successfully
- Ensure `bundle install` works in the repo root
- Run `./config/setupmymac --docker`, at this point it should succeed (?)
- Create a `/private/var/whimsy/.whimsy` (aka `../.whimsy` from the repo
root) file with what normally would be in `~/.whimsy` (see contents below). The
Docker version looks for the file here, so it doesn't work from `~`
- (Can't remember if needed for Docker) Make sure `uri
ldaps://ldap-us.apache.org:636` line is in `/etc/openldap/ldap.conf` and that
`sudo ruby -I lib -r whimsy/asf -e "ASF::LDAP.configure"` works
- `mkdir /srv/svn`, `cd /srv/svn`, and clone some repos (there are likely
others I haven't encountered yet):
- `svn co --depth=files https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/foundation`
- `svn co --depth=files https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/committers`
- `svn co --depth=files
https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/committers/board`
- `svn co --depth=files
https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/foundation/board foundation_board`
- Comment-out the `ln_s` line here (it fails when starting the Docker image
because the file already exists):
```ruby
unless File.exist? '/root/.bash_aliases'
# ln_s '/srv/.bash_aliases', '/root/.bash_aliases'
end
```
... I think that was everything? My apologies if not, if anyone encounters
any errors I can let you know if I remember something.
After that, `rake docker:up` worked and Whimsy was running at
http://localhost:1999/. The home page and some other pages like
`/roster/committee` and `/board/agenda` work, but any requests to any cgi files
in `/members/` that I tried redirected to the homepage, and nothing was printed
to the docker logs. I had to twiddle the whimsy_dn line a few times and
eventually that worked, even though I'm 99% sure I had set it back to what it
was when it didn't work. Make sure to stop and restart Docker when you do this.
`.whimsy` example contents (IMPORTANT: the leading space on each line seems
necessary):
```
:whimsy_dn: uid=<apache_id_here>,ou=people,dc=apache,dc=org
:ldap:
- ldaps://ldap-us.apache.org:636
```
There are several opportunities to improve reproducibility here, but I don't
fully understand them all yet enough to propose fixes. In particular, the
`.bash_aliases` change seems like it could be easy to fix (maybe cat/append if
already exists), and getting the ruby-ldap3 branch merged would allow this to
work from a clean repo.
