Pithos is a file storage service, built by GRNET using Django (https://www.djangoproject.com/).

Documentation

-------------

All docs are in the docs/source directory. The .rst files are perfectly readable in source form.

To build the documentation you need to have Sphinx (http://sphinx.pocoo.org/) installed.

On a typical debian-based Linux system run:

    apt-get install python-django python-django-south python-setuptools python-sphinx python-httplib2

    apt-get install python-sqlalchemy python-mysqldb python-psycopg2

Then run:

    python setup.py build_sphinx

The documentation will be built in the docs/build/html directory.

Also run:

    python setup.py build_sphinx -b text

Then find the plain text version of the docs in docs/build/text.

Running the server

------------------

Make sure you have all required packages installed:

    apt-get install python-django python-setuptools python-sphinx python-httplib2

    apt-get install python-sqlalchemy python-mysqldb python-psycopg2

Then run:

    python manage.py syncdb

    python manage.py schemamigration im --initial

    python manage.py loaddata admin_user

    python manage.py runserver

Go to:

	http://127.0.0.1:8000/im/admin?user=admin&token=0000

This server is useful during development, but should not be used for deployment.

To deploy Pithos using Apache, take a look at the Administrator Guide in docs.
