Linux port

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'd like to port MunkiReport to Linux , and was wondering what OS X specific 
requirements exist to compile or run Munkireport?

com.google.munkireport would have to be converted to a init.d script (or 
something similar), and that I can help with.

I've manually gone through Setup/setup.sh and found that nearly everything 
works with a little bit of tweaking.

The parts I can't get to work .... 

"EGG=`ls *.egg | tail -1`" - Is that supposed to be run from within the 
virtualenv while located at "~/Library/Python" ?  Also what does easy_install 
have to actually install, is it just "setuptools" and "pip" eggs?

The other part I can't get to work (mostly lack of perl knowledge) is the 
"Creating etc/production.ini".  I've tried tweaking it and running it as a 
simple perl script with no luck.  What's the expected output?

I've stopped at the last step with the "paster" command because the package 
python-tg-devtools has numerous dependancies (in yum) and I want to make sure 
this is even feasible before potentially cluttering my system.

Thanks

I think the only OS X specific component, apart from the setup procedure, is:

  http://code.google.com/p/munkireport/source/browse/trunk/munkireport/lib/macosxauth.py

If you're willing to forgo directory service authentication and only use 
fileauth, you can simply disable it in:

  http://code.google.com/p/munkireport/source/browse/trunk/munkireport/config/middleware.py

The rest should work on Linux.

It simply replaces SET SECRET STRING HERE with a random string, currently 
generated with /usr/bin/uuidgen.

Doesn't matter, it simply tries to find a file named *.egg. The easy_install 
command must be executed while the virtualenv is active though, or you'll 
clobber your system python library.

It installs the MunkiReport egg, and its numerous dependencies.

So far this is going to be a bit challenging.  I'm able to get through almost 
the entire setup with few modifications but the probem I'm having is all the 
references to file locations that only exist in OS X.  Like 
"/Library/Application Support".

Also what is the best way to built the MunkiReport egg ?  So far I've had some 
success with "python setup.py bdist_egg".

Also the documentation and setup script says to run "./start" to begin 
MunkiReport...without LaunchDaemons, how can it be started?

Thanks

Ok new problem...

Creating database...
Traceback (most recent call last):

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: Not Found: tg.devtools (did you run python 
setup.py develop?)

Setup done. The server can be started with ./start.sh.

I ran python setup.py develop, but that didn't seem to resolve this.  Is this 
because those python modules aren't getting installed into the virtual 
environment?  

Thanks

Has there been any progress on this since last comment?

Not yet.  I may attempt again now that I've discovered mock and won't have to 
pollute my system with a test.  I'll dig up the code changes I made to get to 
that point of last comment.
