Developer server programs?
 

Morning all,

Im throwing together a development box, with common tools for a team of web developers(my guys are php/python). Any further suggestions?

• git repo
• git frontend - gitorious or gitlab
• wikimedia wiki
• pastebin: zerobin
• gerrit code review
• mantis/bugzilla bug trackers
• jenkins build server
• testlink test management
• watir test suite
• redmine project management
• rsync backups

why not ask THEM what toolset they wish to use? Mandating the tools they use seems very strange to me.

Not mandating at all. These were the tools that we sat down and talked about. I'm just reaching out to the community to see if there are any suggestions that would be helpful. Its a shot in the dark, but having an open conversation cant hurt.

Wow. Do you post like once a minute or something? 45,000 posts is a hell of a lot of posts!

his stats say
we compute:so, he only posts once every 2.5 hrs.

44,999 "Welcome to LQ"? Just kidding Chris!

It's about quality, not quantity, and he has both.
Chris is a valuable asset to this board.

12 years under his belt too.
I think LQ just celebrated 13 years of "life" recently...?

Do I? Not always that sure myself. :-s

That is an extremely solid and well thought out development server. I'm impressed.

Redmine could serve as the git frontend and the issue tracker though.

Thanks for the compliment dugan,.. here is the finished product, tested over and over on vanilla Ubuntu x64 12.10. If anyone comes up with a suggestion they'd like to share, please do so.

Free to all, untracked, no ads. Hope someone finds it helpful.

If you DO like it and find it useful, flip me a 'helpful' point or star the project on Github.

Certainly a useful toolset. Hopefully it integrates well though? Needs to me much more than the sum of its parts for a great solution. SSO and the likes.

Thank you. Im sure atlassian crowd could be used to SSO across the board,. unfortunately i cant find an open source Single Sign on solution.

TBH I should have said centralized user management, not SSO. We've just have Jira installed where we are, with yet another user account and password to remember. So messy.

Righto. I previously worked at a place with a lot of seperate apps, and they actually paid for "Atalassian Crowd" which took care of SSO, and really made things easier. But it wasn't cheap, and it took a lot of developer hours to code the connectors into their applications.

But out of the box, Crowd works great to tie in SSO to all the Atlassian products.
