Trac

From the project web page:

Trac is an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects. Trac uses a minimalistic approach to web-based software project management. Our mission is to help developers write great software while staying out of the way. Trac should impose as little as possible on a team's established development process and policies.

Installation

Install the tracAUR package. Configuration is done on a per-environment basis. See below on how to create an environment. Detailed instructions can be found at https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracGuide.

Configuration

Create and initialize an environment

Initialize an environment

# cd /srv/
# mkdir tracenv
# trac-admin /srv/tracenv initenv

The environment configuration can be found at /srv/tracenv/conf/trac.ini.

Configure the systemd unit

Edit tracd.service using a drop-in file point to your new environment. The ExecStart entry should look something like this:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/tracd -b localhost -p 8080 /srv/tracenv

Webinterface

Start/enable the service and you can view the web interface at http://localhost:8080 using a web browser.

Trac user

It is a good idea to create a dedicated user for the trac service. Once that user is created, you can create the environment using that user:

# cd /srv/
# mkdir tracenv
# chown trac:trac tracenv
# sudo -u trac trac-admin /srv/tracenv initenv

Extend the unit file to make sure it is started as the trac user:

[Service]
User=trac
Group=trac

Users and permissions within trac

(This section refers to creating users within the trac environment rather than GNU/Linux users.)

Next, you will want to add users and give permissions to those users. To add users, see https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracStandalone#UsingAuthentication (you will have to change your .service file to refer to the authentication mechanism you choose). To grant permissions to users, run the following on the trac server:

# trac-admin /srv/tracenv permission add <username> TRAC_ADMIN
gollark: I don't think the extra one will help *much*.
gollark: Maybe by Christmas AMD will have new cards out.
gollark: well, sure why not.
gollark: Bad puns™
gollark: Mine on one card, craft on the other.
