Installs, removes, starts, stops, etc. your Trac service. 86 87 === Option 3 === 88 89 also cygwin's cygrunsrv.exe can be used: 90 {{{ 91 $ cygrunsrv --install tracd --path /cygdrive/c/Python27/Scripts/tracd.exe --args '--port 8000 --env-parent-dir E:\IssueTrackers\Trac\Projects' 92 $ net start tracd 93 }}} 85 94 86 95 == Using Authentication == … … 128 137 This section describes how to use `tracd` with Apache .htpasswd files. 129 138 139 Note: It is necessary (at least with Python 2.6) to install the fcrypt package in order to 140 decode some htpasswd formats. Trac source code attempt an `import crypt` first, but there 141 is no such package for Python 2.6. Only `SHA-1` passwords (since Trac 1.0) work without this module. 142 130 143 To create a .htpasswd file use Apache's `htpasswd` command (see [#GeneratingPasswordsWithoutApache below] for a method to create these files without using Apache): 131 144 {{{ … … 152 165 If you have Apache available, you can use the htdigest command to generate the password file. Type 'htdigest' to get some usage instructions, or read [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/htdigest.html this page] from the Apache manual to get precise instructions. You'll be prompted for a password to enter for each user that you create. For the name of the password file, you can use whatever you like, but if you use something like `users.htdigest` it will remind you what the file contains. As a suggestion, put it in your <projectname>/conf folder along with the [TracIni trac.ini] file. 153 166 154 Note that you can start tracd without the --authargument, but if you click on the ''Login'' link you will get an error.167 Note that you can start tracd without the `--auth` argument, but if you click on the ''Login'' link you will get an error. 155 168 156 169 === Generating Passwords Without Apache === 157 170 158 Basic Authorization can be accomplished via this [http:// www.4webhelp.net/us/password.php online HTTP Password generator]. Copy the generated password-hash line to the .htpasswd file on your system.171 Basic Authorization can be accomplished via this [http://aspirine.org/htpasswd_en.html online HTTP Password generator] which also supports `SHA-1`. Copy the generated password-hash line to the .htpasswd file on your system. Note that Windows Python lacks the "crypt" module that is the default hash type for htpasswd ; Windows Python can grok MD5 password hashes just fine and you should use MD5. 159 172 160 173 You can use this simple Python script to generate a '''digest''' password file: … … 202 215 It is possible to use `md5sum` utility to generate digest-password file: 203 216 {{{ 204 $ printf "${user}:trac:${password}" | md5sum - >>user.htdigest 205 }}} 206 and manually delete " -" from the end and add "${user}:trac:" to the start of line from 'to-file'. 217 user= 218 realm= 219 password= 220 path_to_file= 221 echo ${user}:${realm}:$(printf "${user}:${realm}:${password}" | md5sum - | sed -e 's/\s\+-//') > ${path_to_file} 222 }}} 207 223 208 224 == Reference == … … 222 238 -b HOSTNAME, --hostname=HOSTNAME 223 239 the host name or IP address to bind to 224 --protocol=PROTOCOL http|scgi|ajp 240 --protocol=PROTOCOL http|scgi|ajp|fcgi 225 241 -q, --unquote unquote PATH_INFO (may be needed when using ajp) 226 --http10 use HTTP/1.0 protocol version (default)227 --http11 use HTTP/1.1 protocol version instead of HTTP/1.0242 --http10 use HTTP/1.0 protocol version instead of HTTP/1.1 243 --http11 use HTTP/1.1 protocol version (default) 228 244 -e PARENTDIR, --env-parent-dir=PARENTDIR 229 245 parent directory of the project environments … … 232 248 -r, --auto-reload restart automatically when sources are modified 233 249 -s, --single-env only serve a single project without the project list 234 }}} 250 -d, --daemonize run in the background as a daemon 251 --pidfile=PIDFILE when daemonizing, file to which to write pid 252 --umask=MASK when daemonizing, file mode creation mask to use, in 253 octal notation (default 022) 254 --group=GROUP the group to run as 255 --user=USER the user to run as 256 }}} 257 258 Use the -d option so that tracd doesn't hang if you close the terminal window where tracd was started. 235 259 236 260 == Tips == … … 261 285 See also [trac:TracOnWindowsIisAjp], [trac:TracNginxRecipe]. 262 286 287 === Authentication for tracd behind a proxy 288 It is convenient to provide central external authentication to your tracd instances, instead of using {{{--basic-auth}}}. There is some discussion about this in #9206. 289 290 Below is example configuration based on Apache 2.2, mod_proxy, mod_authnz_ldap. 291 292 First we bring tracd into Apache's location namespace. 293 294 {{{ 295 <Location /project/proxified> 296 Require ldap-group cn=somegroup, ou=Groups,dc=domain.com 297 Require ldap-user somespecificusertoo 298 ProxyPass http://localhost:8101/project/proxified/ 299 # Turns out we don't really need complicated RewriteRules here at all 300 RequestHeader set REMOTE_USER %{REMOTE_USER}s 301 </Location> 302 }}} 303 304 Then we need a single file plugin to recognize HTTP_REMOTE_USER header as valid authentication source. HTTP headers like '''HTTP_FOO_BAR''' will get converted to '''Foo-Bar''' during processing. Name it something like '''remote-user-auth.py''' and drop it into '''proxified/plugins''' directory: 305 {{{ 306 #!python 307 from trac.core import * 308 from trac.config import BoolOption 309 from trac.web.api import IAuthenticator 310 311 class MyRemoteUserAuthenticator(Component): 312 313 implements(IAuthenticator) 314 315 obey_remote_user_header = BoolOption('trac', 'obey_remote_user_header', 'false', 316 """Whether the 'Remote-User:' HTTP header is to be trusted for user logins 317 (''since ??.??').""") 318 319 def authenticate(self, req): 320 if self.obey_remote_user_header and req.get_header('Remote-User'): 321 return req.get_header('Remote-User') 322 return None 323 324 }}} 325 326 Add this new parameter to your TracIni: 327 {{{ 328 ... 329 [trac] 330 ... 331 obey_remote_user_header = true 332 ... 333 }}} 334 335 Run tracd: 336 {{{ 337 tracd -p 8101 -r -s proxified --base-path=/project/proxified 338 }}} 339 340 Note that if you want to install this plugin for all projects, you have to put it in your [TracPlugins#Plugindiscovery global plugins_dir] and enable it in your global trac.ini. 341 342 Global config (e.g. `/srv/trac/conf/trac.ini`): 343 {{{ 344 [components] 345 remote-user-auth.* = enabled 346 [inherit] 347 plugins_dir = /srv/trac/plugins 348 [trac] 349 obey_remote_user_header = true 350 }}} 351 352 Environment config (e.g. `/srv/trac/envs/myenv`): 353 {{{ 354 [inherit] 355 file = /srv/trac/conf/trac.ini 356 }}} 357 263 358 === Serving a different base path than / === 264 359 Tracd supports serving projects with different base urls than /<project>.
