development

• install gettext for instance via "apt install gettext" for translations

• set up a virtual environment with virtualenvwrapper or some other environment managing tool

• use this environment and do

  pip install django django-multiselectfield django-formtools django-allauth requests whitenoise

• clone this repository

• ln -sr eva/settings_development.py eva/settings.py

• initialise your database with

  python manage.py migrate

• You need to add oauth information in the django backend via .../admin in "Social Accounts"

  python manage.py createsuperuser

• start your development server with

  python manage.py runserver

• Configure OAuth:

  • Access the admin interface at http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin
  • Login with your superuser credentials
  • Go to ‘WEBSITE ANZEIGEN’

production

• you can use gunicorn as server for example instead of the django development server.

• we use whitenoise for serving static files

• we still use the development SQLITE database from django

do the following in the project main directory:

ln -sr eva/settings_production.py eva/settings.py

edit /secrets.json to contain something similar to

{ "SECRET_KEY": "THIS IS ANOTHER SECRET!" }

run the following commands:

python3 manage.py migrate python3 manage.py collectstatic django-admin compilemessages

server starts with

export PYTHONUNBUFFERED=TRUE; nohup gunicorn --forwarded-allow-ips="*" -b '0:8000' eva.wsgi &> logfile &
