Installation¶

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.
Copy _1001_project_search_panel.py in searchlight_ui/enabled directory to openstack_dashboard/local/enabled.
(Optional) Copy the policy file into horizon’s policy files folder, and add this config POLICY_FILES:
```
'searchlight_ui': 'searchlight_ui',
```
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
```
Finally restart your web server to enable searchlight-ui in your Horizon:
```
$ sudo service apache2 restart
```
