Editing Creating a Trac Project Environment

==Overview==
How to set up a new [http://trac.edgewall.org/ Trac] project environment on Windows using a [http://www.sqlite.org/ SQLite] database.

==Prerequisites==

See [[Trac Installation on Windows Server 2008]]

==Resources==
* [http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracInstall#CreatingaProjectEnvironment TracInstall: Create a Project Environment]
* [http://littled.dbarchowsky.com/trac/wiki/TracGuide The Trac User and Administration Guide]

== Creating a project environment ==

Using PowerShell as Administrator:

<syntaxhighlight lang="dos">
trac-admin /path/to/tracdir initenv
</syntaxhighlight>

Then trac will prompt for settings:
* Project name: littledamien
* Database connection string: sqlite:db/trac-littledamien.db

The configuration file for the new project environment is located at <code>[TRAC_PROJECT_DIR]\conf\trac.ini</code>.

==Trac web server==

Start the server with 
<syntaxhighlight lang="dos">
tracd --port 8000 /path/to/tracdir
</syntaxhighlight>

Then you can connect to the trac project with <code><nowiki>http://localhost:8000/trac/</nowiki></code>.

==Enabling the Admin tab in the Trac web interface==

<syntaxhighlight lang="dos">
trac-admin /path/to/my/project permission add <username> TRAC_ADMIN
</syntaxhighlight>

==Git support==

Git support is built into Trac 1.0. It has to be enabled in the trac.ini file:
<pre>
[components]
tracopt.versioncontrol.git.* = enabled

[git]
git_bin = c:\git\bin\git.exe
</pre>
Then Admin tab > Administration menu > Version Control > Repositories > Add Repository

<syntaxhighlight lang="dos">

</syntaxhighlight>
