Installation and configuration

Our WADO server doesn't make any assumption about how / where you store DICOM files. Therefore, in order to use it, you need to tweak accessdata.py to specify a way to retrieve the requested DICOM object.

You can test the server as follows:

$ python wado.py test

CherryWado uses FLUP to ease deployment with lighttpd or Apache.

Here is a lighttpd.conf snippet for your convenience:

$HTTP["url"] =~ "" {
    fastcgi.server = (
        "/wado/" => (
           "wado" => (
              "bin-path"         => "/path/to/wado.py",
              "socket"           => "/tmp/wado.sock",
              "check-local"      => "disable",
              "disable-time"     => 1,
              "min-procs"        => 1,
              "max-procs"        => 10,
           ),
        ),
    )

Make sure you have "mod_fastcgi" in server.modules!
