Scripted Installation: Setup django superuser

[Johannes Madel]

Hey group,

I'm about to setup setup sentry using a configuration management tool (I use salt stack, which is a configuration management tool similar to puppet or chef). For that I would have to script and parameterize all the steps needed to installation. I use postgres as a database backend.

Now while the steps needed to installing sentry are not rocket science (installing postgres, creating a sentry database, creating a virtualenv-environment for python, copying the sentry configfile to the right location etc.) are not complicated, the initialisation the database is making problems. For when I execute
# sentry-config=/etc/sentry/sentry.conf upgrade
I have to enter data interactively (config-data for the superuser), and I can't script that propery.

After some research I found out, that
# sentry-config=/etc/sentry/sentry.conf upgrade --noinput
does run without asking my question interactively (manage.py syncdb does take the --noinput option either)

But now I have to add the django superuser afterwords, In this post, http://source.mihelac.org/2009/10/23/django-avoiding-typing-password-for-superuser/ claims that this could be dony by the command

echo "from django.contrib.auth.models import User; User.objects.create_superuser('admin', 'ad...@example.com', 'pass')" | ./manage.py shell

, however I found this not to be working either (neither by using /lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/conf/project_template/manage.py nor by using django-admin.py instead of manage.py)

So: How can I add the django superuser to the database with this approach? How do I init the sentry database using a script?

Best regards,
Johannes

Take a look at this page for an example of how to do this: http://sentry.readthedocs.org/en/latest/faq/index.html#how-do-i

Thanks man, I'll try that asap.

[Jordi Llonch]

David,

Do you consider the option to encapsulate this functionality in management/commands in order to do something like:

sentry group_add my_group

sentry project_add -g my_group my_project

Thanks,

Hey again,

I trued running the script posted on http://sentry.readthedocs.org/en/latest/faq/index.html#how-do-i (included here again for reference):

---

# Bootstrap the Sentry environment
from sentry.utils.runner import configure
configure()

# Do something crazy
from sentry.models import Team, Project, User

user = User()
user.username = 'admin'
user.email = 'admin@localhost'
user.is_superuser = True
user.set_password('admin')
user.save()

team = Team()
team.name = 'Sentry'
team.owner = user
team.save()

project = Project()
project.team = team
project.owner = user
project.name = 'Default'
project.save()

key = ProjectKey.objects.filter(project=project)[0]
print 'SENTRY_DSN = "%s"' % (key.get_dsn(),)

---

However, when I run it I get an error message:
---
# SENTRY_CONF=/etc/sentry/sentry.conf python sentry_init.py

    raise ImportError(path)
ImportError: sentry.buffer.Buffer
---

The problem seems to be this code here (taken from file sentry.utils.imports), where import_string is called with the string argument "'sentry.buffer.Buffer'".

---

class ModuleProxyCache(dict):
    def __missing__(self, key):
        if not '.' in key:
            return __import__(key)

        module_name, class_name = key.rsplit('.', 1)

        module = __import__(module_name, {}, {}, [class_name], -1)
        handler = getattr(module, class_name)

        # We cache a NoneType for missing imports to avoid repeated lookups
        self[key] = handler

        return handler

_cache = ModuleProxyCache()


def import_string(path):
    """
    Path must be module.path.ClassName

    >>> cls = import_string('sentry.models.Group')
    """
    result = _cache[path]
    return result


---


On the file system everything seems to be ok:

---
# ls -l ./sentry/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sentry/buffer/

Futher confusing: The other imports are functioning well (e.g. sentry.utils.runner in sentry_init.py). What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Johannes

You're missing a library, likely redis

If you use sentry==dev the error message is more clear

[Johannes Madel]

Hey again,

still not lucky. Doing the same setup again with sentry==dev led to the follogin error message:

Now I guess that is not a missing packet issue. According to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11711536/django-1-4-database-router-cannot-import-name-connection , django.db.connections has to be included in settings.py . Tried that, doesn't work.

Are you using Postgres? If so you're missing psycopg2

Are you using MySQL? If so you're missing mysqldb

I would go through the quick start again and make sure you didn't miss any steps.

If you do figure out what's missing in this case, it might be worth filing a ticket so we can improve the reporting.
