Getting started

This project is based on the "Two Scoops of Django" best practices project template. The installation assumes a working PostgreSQL (with table creation rights) database and python 3.x environment. To use this project follow these steps:

Create your working environment

You have several options in setting up your working environment. We recommend using virtualenv to separate the dependencies of your project from your system's python environment. If on Linux or Mac OS X, you can also use virtualenvwrapper to help manage multiple virtualenvs across different projects.

Populate .env with your environment variables

Some of these services rely on environment variables set by you. There is an env.example file in the root directory of this project as a starting point. Add your own variables to the file and rename it to .env. This file won’t be tracked by git by default so you’ll have to make sure to use some other mechanism to copy your secret if you are relying solely on git.

Install dependencies

Depending on where you are installing dependencies:

In development:

$ pip install -r requirements/local.txt

For production:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Migrate

Run any migrations required:

python manage.py migrate

Running the application

In the root project folder, run:

python manage.py runserver
