This page describes how we manage settings across the payments cluster.

LocalSettings Repo

This repo contains config files for payments-wiki, CiviCRM, process-control, and SmashPig. Both fr-tech and ops can make changes here. It is kept in git to track changes.

On frpm1002, clone /var/lib/git/localsettings.git to your home directory. When you want to make changes

git pull to make sure your copy is up to date
edit the files
commit the change to git
git push
use fundraising_code_update to copy the updated settings into your target project's rsync source dir.
- e.g. if you have pushed an edit to payments-wiki/LocalSettings.php, you must then use fundraising_code_update -p payments-wiki to copy the file to /srv/www/org/wikimedia/payments
use rsync_blaster to sync the files from frpm1002 to all the target machines.
- e.g. rsync_blaster ALL:payments-wiki

SmashPig

SmashPig configuration is divided between a number of files. Global configuration, including queue and database connections, are in /etc/smashpig/main.yaml, and are managed by puppet (only ops can push changes). Provider configuration files are in the localsettings repo under SmashPig/local-config/.

SmashPig settings are shared across all projects that use the SmashPig library as well as the standalone SmashPig IPN listeners and maintenance scripts.
