You should now have Python and mod_wsgi installed and working in XAMPP.
To create a good Python working environment for XAMPP we need to set some environment variables:
- Code: Select all
echo "
export PATH=/opt/lampp/sbin:/opt/lampp/bin:/opt/lampp:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:$HOME/bin
export PYTHONVERSION=$(/opt/lampp/bin/python -c "import sys;print '%d.%d' % sys.version_info[:2]")
export PYTHONPATH=$(/opt/lampp/bin/python -c "import sys;print ':'.join(sys.path)")
export PYTHONPREFIX=$(/opt/lampp/bin/python -c "import sys;print '%s' % sys.prefix")
export PYTHONHOME=$PYTHONPREFIX
" > ~/.bashrc_xampp
# plus I would recommend you add XAMPP into your $PS1 prompt somewhere
Now we source this file into your environment:
- Code: Select all
source ~/.bashrc_xampp
To install VirtualEnv in XAMPP:
- Code: Select all
cd /tmp
wget --content-disposition http://bitbucket.org/ianb/virtualenv/get/1.5.1.tar.gz
tar xzf virtualenv-1.5.1.tar.gz
cd virtualenv
sudo python setup.py install
cd $HOME
virtualenv --no-site-packages --distribute ENV # does not use packages from main XAMPP python
source ENV/bin/activate
# your command prompt will change to something like this:
(ENV)[greno@zebra:2 XAMPP virtualenv]$
Note: deactivate # when you want to leave ENV
To install Pylons (WSGI-framework) and SQLAlchemy:
- Code: Select all
pip install pylons sqlalchemy
Now let's create our first Pylons application:
- Code: Select all
mkdir projects
cd projects/
paster create --template=pylons HelloWorld
And let's run the built-in webserver:
- Code: Select all
paster serve --reload development.ini
Starting subprocess with file monitor
Starting server in PID 29550.
serving on http://localhost:5000
browser to: http://localhost:5000
Enjoy
