  • Install Python sudo apt-get install python2.7 python2.7-dev
  • Install pip
  • Install virtualenv
virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

  • Build protobufs
git submodule init
git submodule update
./setup.py build_pbf

Create the database

sudo apt-get install postgresql libpq-dev
sudo -i -u postgres
# Create a user
createuser -P navitia (password "navitia")

# Create database
createdb -O navitia chaos

# Create database for tests
createdb -O navitia chaos_testing
ctrl + d

Cache configuration

To improve its performance Chaos can use Redis.

Install Redis

Installing Redis

Using Chaos without Redis

You can deactivate Redis usage in default_settings.py by changing 'CACHE_TYPE' to 'simple'

Using Chaos without cache

For development purpose you can deactivate cache usage in default_settings.py by forcing 'CACHE_TYPE' to 'null'

Run Chaos with honcho (optional)

Install honcho

You can use honcho for managing Procfile-based applications.

pip install honcho
create a .env file

Write this line inside

CHAOS_CONFIG_FILE=default_settings.py
Upgrade database
honcho run ./manage.py db upgrade
RabbitMQ (optional)

RabbitMQ is optional and you can deactivate it if you don't want to send disruptions to a queue.

# chaos/default_settings.py
ENABLE_RABBITMQ = False
Run Chaos
honcho start

The easy way (with Docker)

git clone git@github.com:CanalTP/Chaos.git
cd Chaos
git submodule init
git submodule update
docker-compose up -d

To watch logs output:

docker-compose logs -f

Chaos will be accessible on http://chaos_ws_1.docker if you are using the docker-gen-hosts tool, it will also be accessible on http://chaos-ws.local.canaltp.fr The database will be accessible at 'chaos_database_1.docker' and default RabbitMQ interface at 'http://chaos_rabbitmq_1.docker:15672'.

Security (optional)

If you want to add more security, you can add a file chaos/clients_tokens.json with the client code and navitia tokens like:

{
   "client_code": [
     "navitia_token1",
     "navitia_token2"
   ]
 }

client_code should be the same as the value of X-Customer-Id header in HTTP request and token should be the same as the value of Authorization header in HTTP request If the file doesn't exist, the security will be disabled.

You can add a 'master' key in the file. It will allow you to access all resources for all clients.

Tests

The following commands for tests are also working in Docker environment, you just have to run before:

docker-compose exec ws bash
cd tests

Unit tests

cd tests
honcho run nosetests

Functional tests

cd tests
honcho run lettuce

To stop directly on faulty test

cd tests
honcho run lettuce --failfast
