|
|
============
|
|
|
|
I. What is OpenSlides?
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
OpenSlides is a free web-based presentation and assembly system for
|
|
displaying and controlling of agenda, motions and elections of an assembly.
|
|
See http://openslides.org/ for more information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
II. Requirements
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
OpenSlides runs everywhere where Python is running (for example on
|
|
GNU/Linux, Mac or Windows (XP or newer)). On each client you need only an
|
|
actual webbrowser.
|
|
|
|
|
|
III. Installation
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
Installation on GNU/Linux or Mac OS X
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Check requirements
|
|
|
|
Make sure that you have installed Python Programming Language 3 (>= 3.3)
|
|
on your system. You will also need the Python development headers.
|
|
|
|
For example for Ubuntu run::
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install python3-dev
|
|
|
|
2. Setup a virtual environment with Virtual Python Environment builder
|
|
(optional)
|
|
|
|
You can setup a virtual environment to install OpenSlides as non-root
|
|
user. Make sure that you have installed Virtual Python Environment
|
|
builder on your system.
|
|
|
|
For example for Ubuntu run::
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv
|
|
|
|
Create your OpenSlides directory, change to it, setup and activate the
|
|
virtual environment::
|
|
|
|
$ mkdir OpenSlides
|
|
$ cd OpenSlides
|
|
$ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 .virtualenv
|
|
$ source .virtualenv/bin/activate
|
|
|
|
3. Install OpenSlides
|
|
|
|
You can use the package from the `OpenSlides Website
|
|
<http://openslides.org/download/>`_. Download latest OpenSlides release
|
|
as compressed tar archive and run::
|
|
|
|
$ pip install openslides-x.x.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
OpenSlides will install all required python packages (see
|
|
requirements_production.txt).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation on Windows
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
*Note: There is a portable version of OpenSlides for Windows which does not
|
|
required any install steps. If there is a reason that you can not use the
|
|
portable version you should observe the following install steps.*
|
|
|
|
1. Check requirements
|
|
|
|
Make sure that you have installed Python Programming Language 3 (>= 3.3)
|
|
and Setuptools on your system.
|
|
|
|
a. Download and run the latest `Python 3.4 32-bit MSI installer
|
|
<https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/>`_. Note
|
|
that the 32-bit MSI installer is required even on a 64-bit Windows
|
|
system. If you use the 64-bit MSI installer, step 3 of this
|
|
instruction will fail unless you installed the package reportlab
|
|
manually.
|
|
|
|
b. Add python directories to PATH (via Control Panel > System >
|
|
Advanced): ``";C:\\Python34;C:\\Python34\\Scripts"``. Note that the path
|
|
can differ if you customized the install of Python in the first step.
|
|
|
|
c. Download and run (via double click) the last `install script
|
|
ez_setup.py for Setuptools
|
|
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools/#installation-instructions>`_.
|
|
|
|
2. Setup a virtual environment with Virtual Python Environment builder
|
|
(optional)
|
|
|
|
You can setup a virtual environment to install OpenSlides as non-root
|
|
user. Make sure that you have installed Virtual Python Environment
|
|
builder on your system.
|
|
|
|
To install Virtual Python Environment builder, open command line (cmd)
|
|
and run::
|
|
|
|
> easy_install https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/v/virtualenv/virtualenv-12.0.5.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
Create your OpenSlides directory, change to it, setup and activate the
|
|
virtual environment::
|
|
|
|
> md OpenSlides
|
|
> cd OpenSlides
|
|
> virtualenv .virtualenv
|
|
> .virtualenv\Scripts\activate
|
|
|
|
3. Install OpenSlides
|
|
|
|
You can use the package from the `OpenSlides Website
|
|
<http://openslides.org/download/>`_. Download latest OpenSlides release
|
|
as compressed tar archive and run::
|
|
|
|
> easy_install openslides-x.x.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
OpenSlides will install all required python packages (see
|
|
requirements_production.txt).
|
|
|
|
|
|
IV. Start
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
To start OpenSlides simply run on command line::
|
|
|
|
openslides
|
|
|
|
If you run this command the first time, a new database and the admin account
|
|
(Username: `admin`) will be created. Please change the password (Password:
|
|
`admin`) after first login!
|
|
|
|
OpenSlides will start using the integrated Tornado webserver. It will also
|
|
try to open the webinterface in your default webbrowser. The server will
|
|
try to listen on the local ip address on port 80 or port 8000 if you do not
|
|
have admin permissions. That means that the server will be available to
|
|
everyone on your local network (at least for commonly used network
|
|
configurations).
|
|
|
|
If you use a virtual environment (see install instructions, step 2), do not
|
|
forget to activate the environment before restart after you have closed the
|
|
terminal.
|
|
|
|
For Unix and Mac OS X run::
|
|
|
|
$ source .virtualenv/bin/activate
|
|
|
|
For Windows run::
|
|
|
|
> .virtualenv\Scripts\activate
|
|
|
|
To get help on the command line options run::
|
|
|
|
openslides --help
|
|
|
|
|
|
