DESCRIPTION

FUM is an user management system for LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol). FUM makes it easy to handle information about your employees, their projects and servers they have access to. LDAP is a good protocol for user management, but it needs an user-friendly layer on top of it. One of the strengths of FUM is that it gives the users a lot of freedom over their data.

BACKGROUND

FUM was created as an internal support system at Futurice. It was open sourced as a part of the Summer of Love program.

SETUP

sed -e "s/^SECRET_KEY =.*$/SECRET_KEY = 'test'/" \
    -e "s/company/futurice/g" \
    -e "s/Company/Futurice/g" \
    -e 's/example\.com/futurice.com/g' \
    local_settings.py.template >local_settings.py

# Fill in the LDAP_CONNECTION fields
# set USE_TLS=False if some LDAP connections don't work
# Change IT_TEAM to an existing group you're part of to get SUDO permission

Run using Vagrant

Enter your LDAP username in vagrant/REMOTE_USER, e.g.:

echo username >vagrant/REMOTE_USER

vagrant up

localhost:8000

Develop locally using Procboy

Setup, and configure processes and environment: cp Procfile.template Procfile cp env.template .env

Prepare dependencies (preferably in a virtualenv[1]):

pip install -r requirements.txt
npm install

Run the project:

procboy

View localhost:8000

INSTALL

apt-get install build-essential python-setuptools python-dev libldap2-dev libsasl2-dev libssl-dev libxslt1-dev libffi-dev libpq-dev
pip install -r requirements.txt
npm install

mkdir -p media/portraits/full media/portraits/thumb media/portraits/badge

# Edit LDAP configuration.
createdb fum	# If using PostgreSQL

./manage.py migrate --noinput
./manage.py datamigrate

./manage.py collectstatic --noinput	# rest_framework css/js

PATH=./node_modules/.bin:$PATH ./watcher.py	# LESS/JS bunding, and moving of APP/static to /static
REMOTE_USER=x ./manage.py runserver --nostatic

Testing:

You should have memcached running when running tests. python manage.py test --settings=fum.settings.test

SEARCH (Haystack + SOLR)

get solr and unzip:

wget http://www.nic.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/apache.org/lucene/solr/3.6.2/apache-solr-3.6.2.zip
unzip apache-solr-3.6.2.zip

update solr schema:

python manage.py build_solr_schema > schema.xml

drop the schema to solr's conf folder:

cp schema.xml apache-solr-3.6.2/example/solr/conf/

create stopwords_en.txt:

cp apache-solr-3.6.2/example/solr/conf/stopwords.txt apache-solr-3.6.2/example/solr/conf/stopwords_en.txt

add the schema location to you PATH:

export PATH=$PATH:/../../apache-solr-3.6.2/example/solr/conf/

start solr:

java -jar /apache-solr-3.6.2/example/start.jar

update indexes:

python ./manage.py update_index

and start searching.

CRON REMINDERS

Check for expiring passwords:

python manage.py remind (--dry-run)

This should be ran once a day and sends a reminder at 30 days, 2 weeks and every day for the last week. A final notice is sent once the password has expired.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you're getting "No more space on device" errors when running the watcher.py on Ubuntu, you might need to set the ulimits: http://posidev.com/blog/2009/06/04/set-ulimit-parameters-on-ubuntu/ or run this magic command:

echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p
