Important

To use PyScada in developer mode, you should install it using the pip editable mode (-e)

For developers

Activate PyScada virtual environment

source /home/pyscada/.venv/bin/activate

Cloning the repository

git clone [email protected]:pyscada/PyScada.git

For a plugin like PyScada-Modbus :

git clone [email protected]:pyscada/PyScada-Modbus.git

Pip editable installation

After activating the virtual environment :

sudo -u pyscada -E env PATH=${PATH} pip3 install -e ./PyScada

For a plugin like PyScada-Modbus :

sudo -u pyscada -E env PATH=${PATH} pip3 install -e ./PyScada-Modbus

Restarting the application

After activating the virtual environment, to apply you changes, depending on them, may need to :

create migrations

python3 /var/www/pyscada/PyScadaServer/manage.py makemigrations

apply them

python3 /var/www/pyscada/PyScadaServer/manage.py migrate

copy static files (answer yes).

sudo -u pyscada -E env PATH=${PATH} python3 /var/www/pyscada/PyScadaServer/manage.py collectstatic

Then you can :

For urls, views or admin changes, restart gunicorn.

sudo systemctl restart gunicorn

Otherwise restart PyScada.

sudo systemctl restart pyscada

Override routes

This use case is encountered when you wish to rewrite an existing view (and therefore an existing route).

The PyScada project's urls.py file is used to load the software's routes (see here).

  • python virtual environment installation: located in /var/www/pyscada/PyScadaServer/PyScadaServer
  • Docker installation: located in /src/pyscada/PyScadaServer/PyScadaServer

By default, the project's urls.py file loads only the urls.py file from pyscada.core. The pyscada.core.urls file loads all the other modules urls.py files in random order.

The route used is the first valid one encountered, so if you want to replace an existing route, you have to load your route before the others, i.e. before loading pyscada.core.urls file.

To do this, you need to modify your project's urls.py file.

For a non-docker installation :

sudo -u pyscada nano /var/www/pyscada/PyScadaServer/PyScadaServer/urls.py

And include your route before pyscada.core.urls

urlpatterns = [
path('', include('pyscada.yourPlugin.urls')), #Routing file yourPlugin
path('', include('pyscada.core.urls')),
]
