Rationale

The goal of this project is to enable the user to deploy a production ready Tryton installation out-of-the-box.

Description

This project should basically solve #998319. Until now the Tryton Server uses by default the werkzeug development server as backend. To run an enterprise grade and scalable setup it is recommended to run the server on a dedicated wsgi backend served by a reverse proxy. The systemd start script misses some hardening which could be improved, too.

Project Details

Please see submitter bid section below;

Completion Criteria

• 1 Package tryton-server-uwsgi providing a working setup using the uwsgi backend.
• 2 Package tryton-server-nginx provding a working setup using the above backend.
• 3 Tested systemd hardening
• 4 Optional: Package tryton-server-all-in-one provding the general working setup using the packages above, depending on tryton-modules-all and providing a debconf guided setup including the database setup (dbconfig-common).

Estimated Effort

Estimation is difficult without going into the realization itself. Therefore I want to propose to get 3000€ for 5 days (40 hours) of work. As part of this, I guarantee that I will complete the completion criteria 1-3, as far as possible with criterion 4. If there is time left I will use it on the project Tryton updates for Debian 2.

Submitter Bid
