Installation Guide¶

Manual Installation¶

Note: The paths we are using for configuration files in these steps are with reference to Ubuntu Operating System. The paths may vary for other Operating Systems.

The branch_name which is used in commands, specify the branch_name as stable/<branch> for any stable branch installation. For eg: stable/queens. If unspecified the default will be master branch.

1. Clone tacker-horizon repository.

cd ~/
git clone https://github.com/openstack/tacker-horizon -b <branch_name>

2. Install horizon module.

cd tacker-horizon
sudo python setup.py install

3. Enable tacker horizon in dashboard.

sudo cp tacker_horizon/enabled/* \
    /opt/stack/horizon/openstack_dashboard/enabled/

4. Collect and compress static files.

./manage.py collectstatic --noinput
echo yes | ./manage.py compress

5. Restart Apache server.

sudo service apache2 restart

If your server is using Systemd instead of Upstart (e.g Ubuntu 15.10 and above), use the following command instead:

sudo systemctl restart apache2

Install via Devstack¶

The tacker-horizon is automatically enabled when tacker server is installed.
