Ubuntu下ViewVC安装配置

测试Linux系统：Ubuntu 8.04

在这里我认为你已经安装了Subversion和Apache，可以看这里参见subversion apache 安装配置。http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2012-04/59317.htm

ViewVC安装

1. ViewVC需要的环境

    For CVS Support:

      * Python 1.5.2 or later
          (http://www.python.org/)
      * RCS, Revision Control System
          (http://www.cs.purdue.edu/homes/trinkle/RCS/)
      * GNU-diff to replace diff implementations without the -u option
          (http://www.gnu.org/software/diffutils/diffutils.html)
      * read-only, physical access to a CVS repository
          (See http://www.cvshome.org/ for more information)

    For Subversion Support:

      * Python 2.0 or later
          (http://www.python.org/)
      * Subversion, Version Control System, 1.3.1 or later
          (binary installation and Python bindings)
          (http://subversion.tigris.org/)

安装所需包：

apt-get install python-subversion
apt-get install python-pygments

2. 安装viewvc

tar zxvf viewvc-1.1.2.tar.gz
cd viewvc-1.1.2
./viewvc-install

两次回车安装到/usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2
Installation path [/usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2]:
DESTDIR path (generally only used by package maintainers) []:

3. 配置（viewvc.conf）

vi /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/viewvc.conf

简单配置只需更改root_parents
enable_syntax_coloration = 1 #语法高亮
allowed_views = annotate, diff, markup, roots, co, tar #允许的视图

Edit <VIEWVC_INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY>/viewvc.conf for your specific
  configuration.  In particular, examine the following configuration options:

      cvs_roots (for CVS)
      svn_roots (for Subversion)
      root_parents (for CVS or Subversion)#所有svn版本库的根目录
      default_root
      root_as_url_component
      rcs_dir
      mime_types_files

  There are some other options that are usually nice to change. See
  viewvc.conf for more information.  ViewVC provides a working,
  default look. However, if you want to customize the look of ViewVC
  then edit the files in <VIEWVC_INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY>/templates.
  You need knowledge about HTML to edit the templates.

4. http访问

a) 整合apache（需要mod_cgi）

假设你已经建立了一个虚拟机配置文件
vi /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/svn.sends.cc.conf

</VirtualHost>前加入
##############
    ScriptAlias /viewvc /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi
    ScriptAlias /query /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/cgi/query.cgi
        <Directory “/usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/cgi”>
                AllowOverride None
                Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
                Order allow,deny
                Allow from all
        </Directory>
##############

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

或拷贝viewvc.cgi到apache的cgi-bin目录下通过http://10.3.37.110/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi访问

假设我的cgi-bin目录指向/usr/lib/cgi-bin/
cp /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/cgi/* /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

或用apache的mod_python。把/usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/mod_python/*拷贝到你需要的地方访问viewvc.py。因为有个.htaccess文件，请注意“AllowOverride All”设置。

有access control的apache配置（推荐）

假设你已经建立了一个虚拟机配置文件
vi /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/svn.sends.cc.conf

</VirtualHost>前加入
##############
    ScriptAlias /viewvc /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi
    ScriptAlias /query /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/cgi/query.cgi
        <Directory “/usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/cgi”>
                AllowOverride None
                Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
                Order allow,deny
                Allow from all
        </Directory>
      <Location /viewvc>
#        AllowOverride None
        AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd
        AuthName “Viewvc Of Sendslab”
        AuthType Basic
        require valid-user
      </Location>
##############

创建访问用户
htpasswd -m /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd test

b) 用viewvc自带standalone.py提供http访问

/usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/standalone.py -h 10.3.37.110 -d -c /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/viewvc.conf

standalone.py帮助
root@soft:~# /usr/local/viewvc-1.1.2/bin/standalone.py –help
ERROR: option –help not recognized

Usage: standalone.py [OPTIONS]

Run a simple, standalone HTTP server configured to serve up ViewVC
requests.

Options:

  –config-file=PATH (-c)    Use the file at PATH as the ViewVC configuration
                            file.  If not specified, ViewVC will try to use
                            the configuration file in its installation tree;
                            otherwise, built-in default values are used.
                            (Not valid in GUI mode.)
                           
  –daemon (-d)              Background the server process.
 
  –host=HOST (-h)          Start the server listening on HOST.  You need
                            to provide the hostname if you want to
                            access the standalone server from a remote
                            machine.  [default: localhost]

  –port=PORT (-p)          Start the server on the given PORT.
                            [default: 49152]

  –repository=PATH (-r)    Serve up the Subversion or CVS repository located
                            at PATH.  This option may be used more than once.

  –script-alias=PATH (-s)  Specify the ScriptAlias, the artificial path
                            location that at which ViewVC appears to be
                            located.  For example, if your ScriptAlias is
                            “cgi-bin/viewvc”, then ViewVC will be accessible
                            at “http://localhost:49152/cgi-bin/viewvc”.
                            [default: viewvc]
 
  –gui (-g)                Pop up a graphical interface for serving and
                            testing ViewVC.  NOTE: this requires a valid
                            X11 display connection.
