This installs py-fortress and runs a simple test program of how the RBAC API works._

Minimum hardware requirements:

• 1 Core
• 1 GB RAM

Minimum software requirements:

• RHEL/Debian machine
• Python >=3.6
• Installed README-LDAP-DOCKER
• python-ldap dependencies installed README-UPGRADE-PYTHON

1. Clone py-fortress-sample

   git clone https://github.com/shawnmckinney/py-fortress-sample.git
   

2. Change folder into the project:

   cd py-fortress-sample
   

   you should now be here: py-fortress-sample

3. Prepare the config:

From the project root folder, copy sample cfg file:

cp py-fortress-cfg.json.sample py-fortress-cfg.json

sample cfg file is here: py-fortress-cfg.json.sample

4. Now edit config file:

vi py-fortress-cfg.json

5. Set the LDAP URI

...
"ldap": {
...
"uri": "ldap://localhost",
...

• use value obtained during LDAP setup
• if in doubt use the defaults

6. Save and exit

1. Prepare your terminal for execution of python3. From the main dir of the git repo:

python3 -m venv env
. env/bin/activate

from the py-fortress-sample folder

2. Install py-fortress:

pip3 install py-fortress

3. Change folder to where the sample program is:

cd sample/ldap

you're now here: py-fortress-sample/sample/ldap

4. Prepare the Directory Information Tree:

You can think of this command as creating tables in a new database instance.

initldap

initldap is a python script, created during install of py-fortress package, that maps here: pyfortress.test.test_dit_dao

5. Examine the output, should finish almost instaneously (< 1 sec).

   initldap
   Initialize py-fortress ldap...
   INFO ldap host: localhost, port:389
   test_bootstrap
   test_bootstrap success
   .

6. Run the test program:

   python3 test_samples.py 
   

7. View the output:

   ----------------------------------------------------------------------
   Ran 28 tests in 0.024s
   OK
   

8. Study the APIs in test_samples.py module.
