PackageDB2 is a rewrite of packagedb using flask.
PackageDB is the package database for Fedora.
It is the application handling who is allowed to commit on the git of the Fedora packages, it also handles who is the person getting the bugs on the bugzilla and who get the notifications for changes in the git, builds or bugs.

Here are some preliminary instructions about how to stand up your own instance of packagedb2. We'll use a virtualenv and a sqlite database and we'll install our dependencies from the Python Package Index (PyPI). None of these are best practices for a production instance, but we haven't gotten around to writing and testing those instructions yet.
First, set up a virtualenv:
$ sudo yum install python-virtualenv $ virtualenv my-pkgdb2-env $ source my-pkgdb2-env/bin/activate
Issueing that last command should change your prompt to indicate that you are operating in an active virtualenv.
Next, install your dependencies:
(my-pkgdb2-env)$ pip install kitchen paver urllib3 (my-pkgdb2-env)$ pip install git+https://github.com/fedora-infra/python-fedora.git (my-pkgdb2-env)$ pip install -r requirements.txt (my-pkgdb2-env)$ pip install -r test_requirements.txt
You should run the test suite to make sure nothing is broken before proceeding:
(my-pkgdb2-env)$ ./runtests.sh
They'll take a little while (since they interact with the awesome faitout project).
You should then create your own sqlite database for your development instance of pkgdb2:
(my-pkgdb2-env)$ python createdb.py
Note
If you need/want a copy of the database used in production, follow the instructions in the documentation
If all goes well, you can start a development instance of the server by running:
(my-pkgdb2-env)$ python runserver.py
Open your browser and visit http://localhost:5000 to check it out.
