1. SSH into to bd-clowder.ncsa.illinois.edu or bd-clowder-dev.ncsa.illinois.edu. Rest of the instructions are identical for both these machines unless specified otherwise.
2. Clone extractor-info-service code repository into /home/browndog

   1. git clone opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/bitbucket/scm/bd/bd-aux-services.git

3. Install extractor-info-service

   1. cd /home/browndog/bd-aux-services/extractor-info-fetcher

   2. sudo pyvenv prototype-endpoint-env

   3. source ./prototype-endpoint-env/bin/activate

   4. sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

   5. Update config.py so that the variables, especially rabbitmq_vhost, clowder_url, clowder_key store details about development instances or production instances based on the machine (i.e. dev or prod or dev) in which the service is being installed.

   1. sudo 2to3-3.5 -w extractor-info-fetcher.py

5. Update file permissions:
   

   1. sudo chown -R browndog /home/browndog/bd-aux-services/

   2. sudo

      chgrp

      -R

      users /home/browndog/bd-aux-services/

6. Make sure that the flask app can be run locally:

   1. sh ./run-scrip.sh

   2. If everything looks fine, kill the Flask app by pressing Ctrl + C.

7. Setup the Flask app as a systemd service

   1. sudo cp extractor-info-fetcher.service /lib/systemd/system

   2. sudo systemctl daemon-reload

   3. sudo systemctl start extractor-info-fetcher.service

8. Check the systemd service and make sure it is running:

   1. sudo systemctl status extractor-info-fetcher.service
