Ironic-UI Installation

Please note that the following instructions assume that you have an existing installation of the OpenStack Horizon dashboard application. For Horizon installation please see http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/quickstart.html

1. Clone Ironic UI repository:

git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/ironic-ui

2. Change into the root directory of your horizon installation and run the venv.

NOTE: this has been preinstalled when horizon was setup with ./run_tests.sh - do not reinstall venv

source .venv/bin/activate

3. Copy the _2200_ironic.py file from ironic_ui/enabled directory to horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled

4. Change into the ironic-ui repository and package the plugin:

pip install -r requirements.txt -e .

This will build and install the ironic-ui plugin into the active virtual environment associated with your horizon installation. The plugin is installed in “editable” mode as a link back to your ironic-ui plugin directory.

5. Change back into the horizon repository and bring up your environment:

./run_tests.sh –runserver

The Bare Metal service should now be visible in the Horizon navigation.

To uninstall, use pip uninstall (find the name of the package to uninstall by running pip list from inside the horizon .venv). You will also need to remove the enabled file from the openstack_dashboard/enabled folder.
