Photologue_Demo Django Project

About

This project serves 2 purposes:

• It's a quick demo of django-photologue for people who wish to try it out.
• The 'website' branch is used for the django-photologue demo site (coming soon!).

Prerequisites

• python 2.7
• virtualenvwrapper

Installation

Note: the project is configured so that it can run immediately in dev with zero configuration (especially of settings files).

Create a virtual python environment for the project. The use of virtualenvwrapper is strongly recommended:

mkproject --no-site-packages photologue_demo
or for more sophisticated setups:
mkvirtualenv --no-site-packages photologue_demo

Clone this code into your project folder:

(cd to the folder where the project will live)
git clone https://github.com/richardbarran/photologue_demo .

Install requirements:

cd photologue_demo
pip install -r requirements/dev.txt

The project is set up to run SQLite in dev so that it can be quickly started with no configuration required (you can of course specify another database in the settings file). To setup the database:

./manage.py syncdb
./manage.py migrate

Note: You may want to get a copy of the production database instead of creating a blank local copy. YMMV.

And finally run the project (it defaults to a safe set of settings for a dev environment):

./manage.py runserver
