| 66 | | |
| | 88 | Tracd provides support for both Basic and Digest authentication. Digest is considered more secure. The examples below use Digest; to use Basic authentication, replace `--auth` with `--basic-auth` in the command line. |
| | 89 | |
| | 90 | The general format for using authentication is: |
| | 91 | {{{ |
| | 92 | $ tracd -p port --auth="base_project_dir,password_file_path,realm" project_path |
| | 93 | }}} |
| | 94 | where: |
| | 95 | * '''base_project_dir''': the base directory of the project specified as follows: |
| | 96 | * when serving multiple projects: ''relative'' to the `project_path` |
| | 97 | * when serving only a single project (`-s`): the name of the project directory |
| | 98 | Don't use an absolute path here as this won't work. ''Note:'' This parameter is case-sensitive even for environments on Windows. |
| | 99 | * '''password_file_path''': path to the password file |
| | 100 | * '''realm''': the realm name (can be anything) |
| | 101 | * '''project_path''': path of the project |
| | 102 | |
| | 103 | * **`--auth`** in the above means use Digest authentication, replace `--auth` with `--basic-auth` if you want to use Basic auth. Although Basic authentication does not require a "realm", the command parser does, so the second comma is required, followed directly by the closing quote for an empty realm name. |
| | 104 | |
| | 105 | Examples: |
| | 106 | |
| | 107 | {{{ |
| | 108 | $ tracd -p 8080 \ |
| | 109 | --auth="project1,/path/to/passwordfile,mycompany.com" /path/to/project1 |
| | 110 | }}} |
| | 111 | |
| | 112 | Of course, the password file can be be shared so that it is used for more than one project: |
| | 113 | {{{ |
| | 114 | $ tracd -p 8080 \ |
| | 115 | --auth="project1,/path/to/passwordfile,mycompany.com" \ |
| | 116 | --auth="project2,/path/to/passwordfile,mycompany.com" \ |
| | 117 | /path/to/project1 /path/to/project2 |
| | 118 | }}} |
| | 119 | |
| | 120 | Another way to share the password file is to specify "*" for the project name: |
| | 121 | {{{ |
| | 122 | $ tracd -p 8080 \ |
| | 123 | --auth="*,/path/to/users.htdigest,mycompany.com" \ |
| | 124 | /path/to/project1 /path/to/project2 |
| | 125 | }}} |
| | 126 | |
| | 127 | === Basic Authorization: Using a htpasswd password file === |
| | 128 | This section describes how to use `tracd` with Apache .htpasswd files. |
| | 129 | |
| | 130 | To create a .htpasswd file use Apache's `htpasswd` command (see [#GeneratingPasswordsWithoutApache below] for a method to create these files without using Apache): |
| 74 | | then for starting the tracd (on windows skip the "=" after --basic-auth): |
| 75 | | {{{ |
| 76 | | $ tracd -p 8080 --basic-auth=environmentname,/fullpath/environmentname/.htpasswd,/fullpath/environmentname /fullpath/environmentname |
| 77 | | }}} |
| 78 | | |
| 79 | | Tracd provides support for both Basic and Digest authentication. The default is to use Digest; to use Basic authentication, replace `--auth` with `--basic-auth` in the examples below. (You must still specify a dialogic "realm", which can be an empty string by trailing the BASICAUTH with a comma.) |
| 80 | | |
| 81 | | ''Support for Basic authentication was added in version 0.9.'' |
| 82 | | |
| 83 | | The general format for using authentication is (on windows skip the "=" after --auth): |
| 84 | | |
| 85 | | {{{ |
| 86 | | $ tracd -p port --auth=base_project_dir,password_file_path,realm project_path |
| 87 | | }}} |
| 88 | | |
| 89 | | where: |
| 90 | | |
| 91 | | * '''base_project_dir''' is the base directory of the project; note: this doesn't refer to the project name, and it is case-sensitive even for windows environments |
| 92 | | * '''password_file_path''' path of the password file |
| 93 | | * '''realm''' realm |
| 94 | | * '''project_path''' path of the project |
| 95 | | |
| 96 | | Example (on windows skip the "=" after --auth): |
| 97 | | |
| 98 | | {{{ |
| 99 | | $ tracd -p 8080 \ |
| 100 | | --auth=project1,/path/to/users.htdigest,mycompany.com /path/to/project1 |
| 101 | | }}} |
| 102 | | Of course, the digest file can be be shared so that it is used for more than one project: |
| 103 | | {{{ |
| 104 | | $ tracd -p 8080 \ |
| 105 | | --auth=project1,/path/to/users.htdigest,mycompany.com \ |
| 106 | | --auth=project2,/path/to/users.htdigest,mycompany.com \ |
| 107 | | /path/to/project1 /path/to/project2 |
| 108 | | }}} |
| 109 | | |
| 110 | | Another way to share the digest file is to specify "*" |
| 111 | | for the project name: |
| 112 | | {{{ |
| 113 | | $ tracd -p 8080 \ |
| 114 | | --auth="*",/path/to/users.htdigest,mycompany.com \ |
| 115 | | /path/to/project1 /path/to/project2 |
| 116 | | }}} |
| 117 | | If using the `-s` parameter for serving a Trac environment from the root of a domain, one must use `*` for the project name |
| 118 | | |
| 119 | | == How to set up an htdigest password file == |
| | 138 | |
| | 139 | Then to start `tracd` run something like this: |
| | 140 | {{{ |
| | 141 | $ tracd -p 8080 --basic-auth="projectdirname,/fullpath/environmentname/.htpasswd,realmname" /fullpath/environmentname |
| | 142 | }}} |
| | 143 | |
| | 144 | For example: |
| | 145 | {{{ |
| | 146 | $ tracd -p 8080 --basic-auth="testenv,/srv/tracenv/testenv/.htpasswd,My Test Env" /srv/tracenv/testenv |
| | 147 | }}} |
| | 148 | ''Note:'' You might need to pass "-m" as a parameter to htpasswd on some platforms (OpenBSD). |

| 190 | | in the Wiki: `[/<project_name>/chrome/site/software-0.1.tar.gz]` |
| 191 | | |
| 192 | | Since 0.10, Trac supports a new `htdocs:` TracLinks |
| 193 | | syntax for the above. With this, the example link above can be written simply |
| 194 | | `htdocs:software-0.1.tar.gz`. |
| 195 | | |
| 196 | | === Using apache rewrite rules === |
| 197 | | In some situations when you choose to use tracd behind apache, you might experience issues with redirects, like being redirected to URLs with the wrong host or protocol. In this case (and only in this case), setting the `[trac] use_base_url_for_redirect` to `true` can help, as this will force Trac to use the value of `[trac] base_url` for doing the redirects. |
| | 249 | which in turn can be written as `htdocs:software-0.1.tar.gz` (TracLinks syntax) or `[/<project_name>/chrome/site/software-0.1.tar.gz]` (relative link syntax). |
| | 250 | |
| | 251 | ''Support for `htdocs:` TracLinks syntax was added in version 0.10'' |
| | 252 | |
| | 253 | === Using tracd behind a proxy |
| | 254 | |
| | 255 | In some situations when you choose to use tracd behind Apache or another web server. |
| | 256 | |
| | 257 | In this situation, you might experience issues with redirects, like being redirected to URLs with the wrong host or protocol. In this case (and only in this case), setting the `[trac] use_base_url_for_redirect` to `true` can help, as this will force Trac to use the value of `[trac] base_url` for doing the redirects. |
| | 258 | |
| | 259 | If you're using the AJP protocol to connect with `tracd` (which is possible if you have flup installed), then you might experience problems with double quoting. Consider adding the `--unquote` parameter. |
