[viewvc-users] multiple repositories and checkout view for 1 repo

Hi all,

 

I'm new to Viewvc and also don't know python.  Someone else installed it
and it is set up to show 2 repositories.  In a file called standalone.py
there is a section that gives the first repository it finds the alias
"Available Builds" and a subsequent one "Environments", thus clearly
catering for 2 repositories;

 

elif opt in ('-r', '--repository'):

        if options.repositories: # option may be used more than once:

          num = len(options.repositories.keys())+1

          """symbolic_name = "Builds"+str(num)"""

          symbolic_name = "Available builds"

          options.repositories[symbolic_name] = val

        else:

          options.repositories["Environments"] = val

 

Is it possible to show more repositories in single instance of Viewvc,
or do I need to set up multiple instances of it?

 

While searching for the answer to that I came across the fact that a
Checkout view existed.  Ours must be new enough that it is turned off by
default.  I found the allowed_views configuration to turn it on,
however, I was wondering if it's possible to set it so it's only active
for a specific repository?  In short, we have a repo that non-IT people
use for version information, it would be helpful if they could download
the change log from it - but I wouldn't want them downloading content
from the code repositories, which they view to see details of the latest
bug fixes.

 

Any help, or pointers on how to work it out myself, would be much
appreciated.  Even a straight no will do so at least I stop trying to
work something out that isn't possible!

 

Regards,

Phil
