=================================================
Welcome to RhodeCode (RhodiumCode) documentation!
=================================================
``RhodeCode`` (formerly hg-app) is Pylons framework based Mercurial repository
browser/management tool with build in push/pull server and full text search.
It works on http/https, has build in permission/authentication system with
ability to auth via LDAP. It's similar in some parts to github or bitbucket,
but it's suppose to run as standalone hosted application, it's open source
and donation ware and focuses more on providing customized, self administered
interface for Mercurial(and soon GIT) repositories. It's powered by vcs_
library that me and Lukasz Balcerzak created to handle many various version
control systems.
RhodeCode uses `Semantic Versioning `_
RhodeCode demo
--------------
http://hg.python-works.com
The default access is anonymous but You can login to administrative account
using those credentials
- username: demo
- password: demo
Source code
-----------
The most up to date sources can be obtained from my own RhodeCode instance
https://rhodecode.org
Rarely updated source code and issue tracker is available at bitbcuket
http://bitbucket.org/marcinkuzminski/rhodecode
Installation
------------
Please visit http://packages.python.org/RhodeCode/installation.html
Features
--------
- Has it's own middleware to handle mercurial_ protocol request.
Each request can be logged and authenticated. Runs on threads unlikely to
hgweb. You can make multiple pulls/pushes simultaneous. Supports http/https
and LDAP
- Full permissions (private/read/write/admin) and authentication per project.
One account for web interface and mercurial_ push/pull/clone operations.
- Mako templates let's you customize look and feel of application.
- Beautiful diffs, annotations and source codes all colored by pygments.
- Mercurial_ branch graph and yui-flot powered graphs with zooming and statistics
- Admin interface with user/permission management. Admin activity journal, logs
pulls, pushes, forks, registrations and other actions made by all users.
- Server side forks, it's possible to fork a project and hack it free without
breaking the main repository.
- Full text search powered by Whoosh on source codes, and file names.
Build in indexing daemons, with optional incremental index build
(no external search servers required all in one application)
- Setup project descriptions and info inside built in db for easy, non
file-system operations
- Intelligent cache with invalidation after push or project change, provides high
performance and always up to date data.
- Rss / atom feeds, gravatar support, download sources as zip/tar/gz
- Async tasks for speed and performance using celery_ (works without them too)
- Backup scripts can do backup of whole app and send it over scp to desired
location
- Based on pylons / sqlalchemy / sqlite / whoosh / vcs

Incoming / Plans
----------------
- project grouping
- User groups/teams
- ssh based authentication with server side key management
- code review (probably based on hg-review)
- full git_ support, with push/pull server (currently in beta tests)
- redmine integration
- public accessible activity feeds
- commit based build in wiki system
- clone points and cloning from remote repositories into RhodeCode
- more statistics and graph (global annotation + some more statistics)
- other cools stuff that i can figure out (or You can help me figure out)
