Usage

• Updating

To update the bench CLI tool, depending on your method of installation, you may use

pip3 install -U xhiveframework-bench

To backup, update all apps and sites on your bench, you may use

bench update

To manually update the bench, run bench update to update all the apps, run patches, build JS and CSS files and restart supervisor (if configured to).

You can also run the parts of the bench selectively.

bench update --pull will only pull changes in the apps

bench update --patch will only run database migrations in the apps

bench update --build will only build JS and CSS files for the bench

bench update --bench will only update the bench utility (this project)

bench update --requirements will only update all dependencies (Python + Node) for the apps available in current bench

• Create a new bench

  The init command will create a bench directory with xhiveframework framework installed. It will be setup for periodic backups and auto updates once a day.

    bench init xhiveframework-bench && cd xhiveframework-bench
  

• Add a site

  Xhiveframework apps are run by xhiveframework sites and you will have to create at least one site. The new-site command allows you to do that.

    bench new-site site1.local
  

• Add apps

  The get-app command gets remote xhiveframework apps from a remote git repository and installs them. Example: xhiveerp

    bench get-app xhiveerp https://lab.membtech.comxhiveframework/xhiveerp
  

• Install apps

  To install an app on your new site, use the bench install-app command.

    bench --site site1.local install-app xhiveerp
  

• Start bench

  To start using the bench, use the bench start command

    bench start
  

  To login to Xhiveframework / XhiveERP, open your browser and go to [your-external-ip]:8000, probably localhost:8000

  The default username is “Administrator” and password is what you set when you created the new site.

• Setup Manager

What it does

    bench setup manager

1. Create new site bench-manager.local
2. Gets the bench_manager app from https://lab.membtech.com/xhiveframework/bench_manager if it doesn’t exist already
