Configure sinedon.cfg¶

Sinedon is an object relational mapping library designed to interact with the Leginon and Appion databases. * An example configuration file is available at:
myami/sinedon/examples/sinedon.cfg

• Configurations for all users should be placed at the following path:
  $PYTHONSITEPKG/sinedon/sinedon.cfg

• Modify sinedon.cfg to look like the following example. Set the host, db, user, and passwd to match the databases created during your Database Server setup. Note that the user here is the MySQL user Leginon uses to communicate with the database for all Leginon users. For an Appion or Leginon installation that uses Project database, set the following:
  

  [global]
  #host: your_database_host
  host: localhost
  user: usr_object
  passwd:
  
  [projectdata]
  db: projectdb
  
  [leginondata]
  db: leginondb
  

Note: If you are a developer, and you need to use sinedon.cfg settings that are different from the global settings, you may create your own sinedon.cfg file and place it in your home directory. This version will override the global version located in the site packages directory.
