Deploymachine runs locally on OSX or GNU/Linux.
Clone the deploymachine to an easily accesible folder on your local machine. Replacing username with your local username, the recommended place to clone is:
Copy the example files and customize for your project. A suggestion is to instead store these private files a private git repository, and create symlinks to them. These files are set to be ignored in the deploymachine’s .gitignore:
$ cp fabfile_local.dist.py fabfile_local.py
$ cp deploymachine_settings.py.dist deploymachine_settings.py
$ cp kokki-config.dist.j2 kokki-config.j2
You must also set some environment variables for your interactive shell. For example, add the following to your ~/.bashrc and edit accordingly:
export OPENSTACK_COMPUTE_USERNAME="" # your rackspace username
export OPENSTACK_COMPUTE_APIKEY="" # your rackspace apikey
export VIRTUALENVS_LOCAL_ROOT="" # typically /home/username/.virtualenvs/
export SITES_LOCAL_ROOT="" # try /home/username/www/
