Installing RQL Upload

This tutorial will walk you through the process of installing RQL Upload:

• rql_upload: a cube that can only be instanciated if cubicweb is installed.

Installing rql_upload

Installing the current version

Install from github

Clone the project

cd $CLONEDIR
git clone https://github.com/neurospin/rql_upload.git

Update your CW_CUBES_PATH

export CW_CUBES_PATH=$CLONE_DIR/rql_upload:$CW_CUBES_PATH

Make sure the cube is in CubicWeb’s path

cubicweb-ctl list

Create an instance of the cube and configure the demo upload service

cubicweb-ctl create rql_upload toy_upload

When asked, specify a directory path where the uploaded file will be stored:

rql_upload options
------------------
:upload_directory:
base directory in which a the files are uploaded.
(default: ):

And the json file that will define your forms:

:upload_structure_json:
json file describing the different upload entities.
(default: ):

An example of configuration file can be found within the cubes file:

$CLONE_DIR/rql_upload/demo/demo.json

You can then run the instance in debug mode:

cubicweb-ctl start -D toy_upload

The last line of the prompt will indicate which url the instance can be reached by:

(cubicweb.twisted) INFO: instance started on http://url:port/

Change configuration

You can change to configuration by modifying the instance configuration file stored on your system:

...etc/cubicweb.d/toy_upload/all-in-one.conf
