============
Installation
============

1. Package the searchlight_ui by running::

    python setup.py sdist

   This will create a python egg in the dist folder, which can be used to
   install on the horizon machine or within horizon's python virtual
   environment.

2. Copy ``_1001_project_search_panel.py`` in
   ``searchlight_ui/enabled`` directory
   to ``openstack_dashboard/local/enabled``.

3. (Optional) Copy the policy file into horizon's policy files folder, and
   add this config ``POLICY_FILES``::

    'searchlight_ui': 'searchlight_ui',

4. Django has a compressor feature that performs many enhancements for the
   delivery of static files. If the compressor feature is enabled in your
   environment (``COMPRESS_OFFLINE = True``), run the following commands::

    $ ./manage.py collectstatic
    $ ./manage.py compress

5. Finally restart your web server to enable searchlight-ui
   in your Horizon::

    $ sudo service apache2 restart
