kiilerix	fe050a93936b	1 month ago	hg: Redirect Mercurial stdout/stderr to logging when running as WSGI hg: Redirect Mercurial stdout/stderr to logging when running as WSGI Any "console" output from Mercurial when Kallithea is running from WSGI should end up in Kallithea's logs. That seems like a nice general feature. This will however also solve another rare but more critical problem: Mercurial is writing to sys.stdout / sys.stderr, using several layers of wrapping. Since Mercurial 5.5 (with https://repo.mercurial-scm.org/hg/rev/8e04607023e5 ), all writes are given a memoryview. Apache httpd mod_wsgi is invoking the WSGI with a custom mod_wsgi.Log injected in sys.stdout / sys.stderr . This logger can however not handle memoryview - https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/mod_wsgi/issues/863 . stable
kiilerix	7c2704784297	1 month ago	wsgi: Refactor to introduce make_app_raw function with the essentials of make_app wsgi: Refactor to introduce make_app_raw function with the essentials of make_app Command line commands and WSGI applications have different environments and runtime models. They deserve different handling. Keep make_app doing as before so WSGI scripts keep working as before. All "app" usage from command line is changed to use make_app_raw directly. stable

Valentin Kleibel	aa51aca7fd1a	2 months ago	controller: Handle UnicodeDecodeError from webob decoding invalid URLs controller: Handle UnicodeDecodeError from webob decoding invalid URLs webob will try to utf-8 decode all %-encoded bytes in URL-parameters, but will not handle Unicode erors ... and neither did Kallithea. Visiting a URL like http://localhost:5000/?%AD would thus give an unhandled exception showing "Internal Server Error" to the user, and logging the full traceback and: WebApp Error: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xad in position 0: invalid start byte This has been seen a lot recently from attackers probing for a php vulnerability https://devco.re/blog/2024/06/06/security-alert-cve-2024-4577-php-cgi-argument-injection-vulnerability-en/ . Now handle these exceptions more nicely and reject with "400 Bad Request". stable
kiilerix	0245e0ebddd0	3 months ago	hg: support new clonebundles_manifest write protocol command hg: support new clonebundles_manifest write protocol command A new wire protocol command was introduced with Mercurial 6.5 - https://repo.mercurial-scm.org/hg/rev/4238e6b22fc4 . When a client (after negotiation with the server) decided to use this new command, Kallithea would fail safely and require write permissions. Fixed by adding it to the list of known read-only commands. stable

Kallithea README

About

Kallithea is a fast and powerful management tool for Mercurial and Git with a built-in push/pull server, full text search and code-review. It works on HTTP/HTTPS and SSH, has a built-in permission/authentication system with the ability to authenticate via LDAP or ActiveDirectory. Kallithea also provides simple API so it's easy to integrate with existing external systems.

Kallithea is similar in some respects to GitHub or Bitbucket, however Kallithea can be run as standalone hosted application on your own server. It is open-source and focuses more on providing a customised, self-administered interface for Mercurial and Git repositories. Kallithea works on Unix-like systems and Windows.

Kallithea was forked from RhodeCode in July 2014 and has been heavily modified.

Installation

Kallithea requires Python 3 and it is recommended to install it in a virtualenv. Official releases of Kallithea can be installed with:

pip install kallithea

The development repository is kept very stable and used in production by the developers -- you can do the same.

Please visit https://docs.kallithea-scm.org/en/latest/installation.html for more details.

There is also an experimental Puppet module for installing and setting up Kallithea. Currently, only basic functionality is provided, but it is still enough to get up and running quickly, especially for people without Python background. See https://docs.kallithea-scm.org/en/latest/installation_puppet.html for further information.

Source code

The latest sources can be obtained from https://kallithea-scm.org/repos/kallithea.

Kallithea features

Has its own middleware to handle Mercurial and Git protocol requests. Each request is authenticated and logged together with IP address.
Built for speed and performance. You can make multiple pulls/pushes simultaneously. Proven to work with thousands of repositories and users.
Supports HTTP/HTTPS with LDAP, AD, or proxy-pass authentication.
Supports SSH access with server-side public key management.
Full permissions (private/read/write/admin) together with IP restrictions for each repository, additional explicit forking, repositories group and repository creation permissions.
User groups for easier permission management.
Repository groups let you group repos and manage them easier. They come with permission delegation features, so you can delegate groups management.
Users can fork other users repos, and compare them at any time.
Built-in versioned paste functionality (Gist) for sharing code snippets.
Integrates easily with other systems, with custom created mappers you can connect it to almost any issue tracker, and with a JSON-RPC API you can make much more.
Built-in commit API lets you add, edit and commit files right from Kallithea web interface using simple editor or upload binary files using simple form.
Powerful pull request driven review system with inline commenting, changeset statuses, and notification system.
Importing and syncing repositories from remote locations for Git and Mercurial.
Mako templates let you customize the look and feel of the application.
Beautiful diffs, annotations and source code browsing all colored by pygments. Raw diffs are made in Git-diff format for both VCS systems, including Git binary-patches.
Mercurial and Git DAG graphs and Flot-powered graphs with zooming and statistics to track activity for repositories.
Admin interface with user/permission management. Admin activity journal logs pulls, pushes, forks, registrations and other actions made by all users.
Server side forks. It is possible to fork a project and modify it freely without breaking the main repository.
reST and Markdown README support for repositories.
Full text search powered by Whoosh on the source files, commit messages, and file names. Built-in indexing daemons, with optional incremental index build (no external search servers required all in one application).
Setup project descriptions/tags and info inside built in DB for easy, non-filesystem operations.
Intelligent cache with invalidation after push or project change, provides high performance and always up to date data.
RSS/Atom feeds, Gravatar support, downloadable sources as zip/tar/gz.
Optional async tasks for speed and performance using Celery.
Backup scripts can do backup of whole app and send it over scp to desired location.
Based on TurboGears2, SQLAlchemy, Whoosh, Bootstrap, and other open source libraries.
Uses PostgreSQL, SQLite, or MariaDB/MySQL databases.

License

Kallithea is released under the GPLv3 license. Kallithea is a Software Freedom Conservancy project and thus controlled by a non-profit organization. No commercial entity can take ownership of the project and change the direction.

Kallithea started out as an effort to make sure the existing GPLv3 codebase would stay available under a legal license. Kallithea thus has to stay GPLv3 compatible ... but we are also happy it is GPLv3 and happy to keep it that way. A different license (such as AGPL) could perhaps help attract a different community with a different mix of Free Software people and companies but we are happy with the current focus.

Migrating from RhodeCode

Kallithea 0.3.2 and earlier supports migrating from an existing RhodeCode installation. To migrate, install Kallithea 0.3.2 and follow the instructions in the 0.3.2 README to perform a one-time conversion of the database from RhodeCode to Kallithea, before upgrading to this version of Kallithea.
