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
