Trying to get the noVNC package into something that matches the Fedora
Python pakcage specificiation.
1. Create a bin directory, and all shell scripts and executable python
files go in there. These will get installed into /usr/bin. All the
files in here will be prefixed by novnc-. nova-novncproxy is the
exception ,as it will eventually move back to Nova. These are
img2js.py, json2graph.py, launch.sh, u2x11, u2x11, websockify, rebind.
2. websocket.py. is a Python file that is both an execuatble and a
module. It will get split into two parts. The module websocket.py will
stay in the top level directory with a .py extension. The executable
portion will go into bin as websockify. The module code will get
installed into /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/.
3. All client side Javascript and html files will go into an html
subfile. This includes the html and ico files in the top dir, and the
subdirectories 'include' and 'images'.
4. rebind.so needs libtool support. It will get moved into a subdir
name rebind. It will get installed into /usr/lib[64] as a versioned
.so, probably 0.1.0
This will likely conflict with a future websocket RPM, but we'll burn
that bridge when we get there.
For our purposes, we don't really need rebind, as we are not using it.
I'm almost tempted to leave it out of the RPM. Dan B mentioned that it
needs IPv6 support, but I don't think it is worth doing that right now.
The Init script for the VNC code is in Nova. Since daemon runs with
--user nova, it should be run as a non-priveledged user, which means
that it only has the problem of running in the wrong CWD. I suggest
that we put
os.chdir(os.path.dirname(sys.argv[0]))
into nova-novncproxy.
