Taigaio instalaltion on raspberry pi model b?

[konrad....@gmail.com]

Hello ! I really love the taiga look and feel but the last impediment to use it is absolutely zero knowledge about python and installation this kind of apps. 

I have qn idea, is it possible to install taiga on rasp pi memory card so i can ask someone to help me with it? Is rasp enought for it? (RAM etc.?)

Or maybe there is a php taiga version? :)

Hi Konrad, 

you can install Taiga in a RasPy, some users have already done https://twitter.com/Lumlicious_C/status/616354733133950976 But I think it's not a good idea if you want to use for a production environment, Taiga doesn't need a lot of RAM because is a SPA (single-page app) written in angular; only the backend (an API rest) is written in python so it doesn't need a lot of RAM too (only for postgresql) but for a production env you need to install rabitmq, redis, celery so the use of RAM can increase. We recomend at least 0.75 GB of memory.

If you want to test it follow the setup instructions at http://taigaio.github.io/taiga-doc/dist/

Regards

Hi!

I'm going to be trying this next weekend and wanted to ask you a couple of things before I start. 

It seems like the requirements are related to installation time, i.e. the compilation of lxml rather than during running time, so in theory if you can pre-compile, you should be able to run a production environment in a Pi... What other drawbacks can you see?

The reason I'm saying this is that a work around this issue might be to emulate the Pi using something like Qemu with a bit of extra ram, then once you have installed and prepared everything, you can move it into your Pi.

What do you think? worth trying?

Cheers,

Jorge

Hello Jorge!,

It's that compilation process the most memory consuming thing that Taiga will do during the installation so if you can pre-compile...it should work!

I think trying will be the only way for enlightening us :)

Hi,
That's great I'll keep you informed and I'd be happy to add an article to the wiki or something like that if it works.
Apparently another option is to increase swap (which could be miles easier).

I'll let you know...
Cheers,
Jorge

Great!, thank you very much Jorge.

Hi,

It has been a while since the last time we spoke and I managed to get everything installed in a Pi 1 revision 2 by doing this http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/15284/problems-installing-lxml and a couple of debian (raspbian) related modifications.

However, I can't get circus to work and it keeps booting the workers. My feeling is that it takes too long to bootstrap the local settings and a timeout is being triggered. 

When running it from (the less efficient) Django devel server, the performance is not great (I tested this configuration in a normal machine and the performance was ok) which makes me think that it isn't going to perform very well and it most likely won't make sense pursuing. It would be great if someone can test it in the newer pi, perhaps it makes sense there.

Regards,

Jorge

Hello!

That is exactly the point I gave up on the Raspberry Pi, too.
I am not 100% sure anymore, but I think I tried on the Raspberry Pi 2 also (I have them both).
Everything seemed to work just fine, but circus did not.

Now I am using ZOTAC box, which is way more expensive and faster than the RPi, but also just as small and energy efficient.
So if your goal was to have a small, almost invisible box to host some web services for your local network AND you have about 200 bucks to spare, maybe this would be for you also.

Those are certainly pretty cool little devices. Just as a future reference, which one were you trying?

(https://www.zotac.com/product/mini_pcs/pi320)? and how many users where you supporting?

Thanks for the info!

Jorge
