development setup for deaddrop

This document assumes your development environment is a Debian, Ubuntu or Fedora derivative. If you're familiar with homebrew on OSX you should be able to follow along (documentation patches welcome).

install virtualenv:

$ sudo yum install python-virtualenv
$ sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv

create and activate a new virtualenv:

$ virtualenv ~/envs/deaddrop
$ . ~/envs/deaddrop/bin/activate

install dependencies:

$ pip install web.py python-gnupg

install srm (secure remove utility):

$ sudo yum install srm
$ sudo apt-get install secure-delete

use the example config:

$ ln -s example_config.py config.py

NOTE: the STORE_DIR and GPG_KEY_DIR must be absolute paths. Ensure they exist:

   $ mkdir -p /tmp/deaddrop/{store,keys}

running

At this point you should be able to directly invoke source or journalist:

$ python journalist.py
$ python source.py

And browse to http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.
