Valhal - SIFD management. Note that as of December 2014, this is no longer in active development. To accomodate a new Bibframe based data model, the code has been substantially refactored in a new repository. This repository will continue to exist to facilitate migration of relevant functionality.
git clone https://gitusername@github.com/Det-Kongelige-Bibliotek/valhal.git
Replace 'gitusername' with your own gitusername. This is necessary, if you want to push commits back to master branch.
The Hydra part of valhal has the same basic software requisites as the Hydra-Head component (Ruby, Rails, etc.).
- The software requisites for the Hydra-Head can be found here: https://github.com/projecthydra/hydra-head/wiki/Installation-Prerequisites
- A set of step-by-step instructions for installing Ruby, Rails, and other useful tools, on a selection of operation systems, can be found here: http://installfest.railsbridge.org/installfest/
RabbitMQ. Note that RabbitMQ depends on Erlang.
ImageMagick-devel (on RHEL6 run ’yum install ImageMagick-devel’ with repo ’rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6’) (on Ubuntu run ’apt-get install libmagickwand-dev’).
File Information Tool Set (FITS), http://projects.iq.harvard.edu/fits/downloads. Set environment variable FITS_HOME to the fully qualified file name of the FITS script. We have tested with FITS 0.6.2
In RubyMine chose File->Open Directory and select the valhal directory. RubyMine should automatically integrate with the valhal Git repository.
In the config directory, create an application.local.yml file based on the application.local.template.yml file.
Run RabbitMQ on default port - 5672 (on RHEL6 there might be a Qpid daemon running on port 5672 already)
$ bundle install
$ rake db:migrate
$ rake jetty:clean
$ rake hydra:jetty:config
$ rake jetty:start
The tests can be run by:
$ rake
The interface can be started on localhost:3000 by:
$ rails server
use "ctrl-c" for stopping the rails server then stop the jetty application with "rake jetty:stop"
