The latest AWFY is five components: (1) MySQL database that stores statistics. (2) Hidden PHP script on the webserver, where stats get sent. (3) Python driver that runs on each benchmark computer, and submits stats. (4) Python aggregator that builds JSON data from the DB. (5) Static HTML as the frontpage, that queries JSON via XHR. NOTE: (2), (3), and (5) must be on the same webserver, otherwise timestamps might not be computed correctly. ######### SET UP ########## Setting up (1): Run database/schema.sql Setting up (2): Drop website/UPDATE.PHP and website/internals.php somewhere, and rename UPDATE.PHP to something secret. Setting up (3): I set it up like: mkdir awfy cd awfy svn checkout http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/branches/bleeding_edge/ v8 svn checkout https://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk WebKit hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound mkdir driver cp <awfy-src>/driver/* driver/ Add a database entry for the machine configuration. Edit driver/awfy.config to match your webserver and machine database entry. Add a cronjob to run dostuff.py periodically. AWFY.com runs every 30min. Setting up (4): Put awfy-server.config in /etc/, edit it to point at your database and website/data folder. Then put frontpage.py in a cronjob. It will dump files where appropriate. AWFY.com does this every 15min. Setting up (5): Nothing special needed. Note that our flot is slightly modified, so it might not work to just replace it.
