Does anyone know how mod_python for apache works? If its not too
hard, I would like to make something like this for yaws...or at least
a special purpose interface for running trac through yaws.
My impetus for this is to use trac (trac.edgewall.com) served by yaws.
Currently supported methods for serving trac pages are: cgi,
fast_cgi, mod_python and tracd (trac's standalone http server).
If its possible, I will integrate yaws to trac by starting with the
howto for running python as a port:
http://wiki.trapexit.org/index.php/
Writing_an_Erlang_Port_using_OTP_Principles
The trouble is, I have no clue what mod_python for apache does. What
info and structure from the http request am I supposed to pass on to
the python process?
I could go the fast_cgi route instead, but I don't know where to
start on this one either, so I figured running python as a port and
trying to emulate a mod_python solution would be my first try.
Any ideas?
thanks, ke han

I have no idea either of how mod_python works but I am also interested
in running
trac via yaws instead of apache.

You definitely don't want to try and emulate mod_python. fastcgi or
reverse proxy to tracd would be significantly easier and more
flexible.

At my workplace (tail-f) we're succesfully running trac from yaws. Trac is
just a great tool b.t.w.
Here are the relevant snippets to get it going, appmods rock. Sebastian
Strollo did this.
1. yaws.conf
......
<server wiki.tail-f.com>
port = 443
listen = 192.168.1.43
appmods = </viewvc , viewvc> </trac , trac>
docroot = /store/wiki/wiki
<auth>
dir = /
realm = Tail-f-wiki
user ........
2.
# cat trac.erl
-module(trac).
-export([out/1]).
-include_lib("yaws/include/yaws_api.hrl").
out(Arg) ->
Pathinfo = Arg#arg.appmoddata,
RemoteUser = case (Arg#arg.headers)#headers.authorization of
{User, _Pass, _Type} ->
[{"REMOTE_USER", User}];
_ ->
[]
end,
Env = [{"SCRIPT_NAME", "/trac"},
{"TRAC_ENV", "/store/wiki/trac"}] ++ RemoteUser,
yaws_cgi:call_cgi(Arg, undefined, script(), Pathinfo, Env).
script() ->
"/usr/local/share/trac/cgi-bin/trac.cgi".
% "/home/seb/environment.cgi".
3.
# cat viewvc.erl
-module(viewvc).
-export([out/1]).
-include_lib("yaws/include/yaws_api.hrl").
out(Arg) ->
Pathinfo = Arg#arg.appmoddata,
Env = [{"SCRIPT_NAME", "/viewvc/"}],
yaws_cgi:call_cgi(Arg, undefined, script(), Pathinfo, Env).
script() ->
"/usr/local/viewvc-1.0-dev/bin/cgi/viewcvs.cgi".

ok, so any pointers on where to start with fast_cgi or reverse proxy
to tracd?
I know that the point of fast_cgi is to keep the python process
running between calls. Seems like I can use the howto referenced
above for this.  But what do I actually pass from the http
request into python? I gues this is like saying what is the fast_cgi
protocol...but thats basically where I am.
Doing reverse proxy to tracd sounds straightforward but less
desirable in terms of performance and solution reuse for other types
of apps and for my purposes I need the requests coming through as
https. I've read quite a few problems exist when trying to proxy
into tracd with an https front end.
thanks for saving me some time on the mod_python attack...
Any more takers on my next steps?

Claes,
fantastic!!! I'll try this first thing tomorrow...its 5:30 am now
and I best get to sleep so my wife can wake me up in 2 hours ;-(
Yes, trac is nice and each release (0.10 just came out) keeps getting
better. .. 0.10 is VCS agnostic...sort of, svn is still the standard.
Have you thought of using yaws + trac for yaws.hyber.org ? you could
dump sourceforge and switch from cvs to svn in one blow.
thanks again, you've saved me lots of trial and error...I can live
without fast_cgi.
