Installation¶

Before install the Senlin Dashboard, setup the Horizon. To setup the Horizon, see Installation Guide in the Horizon documentation.

1. Clone the Senlin Dashboard repository:

   $ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/senlin-dashboard
   

2. Copy the _50_senlin.py file from senlin_dashboard/enabled/_50_senlin.py file to horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled directory. Example, set as if being executed from the root of the senlin-dashboard repository:

   cp ./senlin_dashboard/enabled/_50_senlin.py ../horizon/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled
   

3. Change into the senlin-dashboard repository and package the plugin:

   pip install -r requirements.txt -e .
   

   This will build and install the senlin-dashboard plugin into the active virtual environment associated with your horizon installation. The plugin is installed in “editable” mode as a link back to your senlin-dashboard plugin directory.
