How It All Fits Together
We have our four parts??”Trac, Subversion, Apache, and WebDAV. So how do they
fit together?
Although we have four parts, we only end up with a two-tiered system. We will
be using Apache to provide access and authentication to Trac, Subversion, and
WebDAV. This relationship can be seen in the following figure.
Subversion
Apache
Trac WebDAV
Since all these components are linked and we depend on Apache to access them, we
are going to use a single machine to host them all. This will become our server??”the
hub of our development process.
Summary
So we have looked at what we are going to use, and discussed why these choices
lend themselves well to our solution for managing software development. We are
using Trac for managing the development process, Subversion to manage our source
code, WebDav for managing access to files, and Apache to tie them all together.
In the next chapter we will see how to install and configure them all on two of the
most popular platforms: Linux and Microsoft Windows.
Laying the Foundations
In this chapter we will cover installing the server components of our framework
on the platform of our choice. Although there are numerous platforms that our
framework will run on, you will find only specific instructions here for Linux and
Microsoft Windows.
