Quick installation¶

• You will need puppet lib to be in your RUBYLIB, or just install puppet from your package manager (gem, apt, yum ...)

• Get latest Redmine
  

  git clone git://github.com/edavis10/redmine.git
  

• Install initr plugin
  

  cd redmine/vendor/plugins ; git clone git://github.com/descala/initr.git
  

• Apply redmine patches on initr/redmine_patches/
  

  cd ../../ ; git apply vendor/plugins/initr/redmine_patches/*.patch
  

• Configure config/database.yml

• additionally to redmine tables you can configure the database where puppetmaster stores configs to tell initr where to look for hosts and facts
  or you can simply run "rake puppet:import:hosts_and_facts" to load them from YAML
  

  # you can define a puppet_[RAILSENV] database to
  # tell initr where to look for hosts and facts
  puppet_development:
    adapter: mysql
    database: puppet
    username: root
    password:
  

• Migrate databases
  

  rake db:migrate ; rake db:migrate:plugins
  

• (Re)Start Redmine and check that it lists initr plugin on 'Admin -> Information' screen.

• Configure Initr on 'Admin -> Plugins -> Initr' screen

• Add Initr to a project ('Project -> Settings -> Modules') and Initr tab will appear on that project.

• You can start a local puppetmaster by running puppet/start_puppetmaster.sh from initr plugin directory
