aptly-api-gui

Proof of Concept for a HTML GUI for the aptly API. The GUI is implemented through an AngularJS on top a Flask API that handles authentication and proxies API requests to aptly.

This app supports only the features required for DARIAH and is designed to be run on DARIAH infrastructure. In particular, only a subset of API calls are supported and authentication is supported through Shibboleth only!

Features

• Shibboleth authentication and write access only for admins
• provide dropdown of existing repositories
• show list of packages in the selected repository
• allow to copy packages to other repositories

Setup

Install flask with its components from reqirements.txt into a virtualenv named venv:

ualenv venv
ce venv/bin/activate
install -r requirements

Add the WSGI app to Apache and enforce Shibboleth authentication at /login:

DaemonProcess aptlygui user=www-data group=www-data threads=5 python-path=/opt/aptly-api-gui/venv
ScriptAlias /aptly /opt/aptly-api-gui/aptlygui.wsgi

ation /aptly>
GIProcessGroup aptlygui
GIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
quire all granted
cation>

ation /aptly/login>
thType shibboleth
ibRequestSetting requireSession true
quire valid-user
cation>

Add the neccessary options to settings_local.py:

ET_KEY = '*****************'

URL = 'http://localhost:8008/api'

N_GROUPS = 'group01;group07'

ATTRIBUTE_MAP = {
'eppn': (True, 'username'),
'cn': (True, 'fullname'),
'mail': (True, 'email'),
'isMemberOf': (False, 'isMemberOf')

Set up aptly to serve at the url configured.
