Pre assessment: Plataforma.io | Backend Python

This is my solution for the assessment presented HERE!

I hope you get fascinated or at least delighted.

Getting Started

Dependencies

• Docker
• Nginx (prod)
• Gunicorn (prod)
• PostgreSQL or possibly others SQL Databases
• Python
• Packages:
  • Django
  • Django Rest Framework
  • More Details on requirements.txt

Installing

Do you have Docker Installed?

NOTES About Both Enviroments - PROD & DEV

When web container start, on the first time, the follow commands are executed automatically:

    python manage.py flush --no-input
    python manage.py makemigrations
    python manage.py migrate --noinput
    python manage.py loaddata users.json posts.json reposts.json quote-postings.json

Getting ready the database and loading some example data, so NO NEED TO EXECUTE the commands ABOVE.
They are included on entrypoints scripts: entrypoint.sh and entrypoint.prod.sh.

But if wanted on your own risk it's possible to execute using:

docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml exec web python manage.py flush --noinput
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml exec web python manage.py makemigrations
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml exec web python manage.py migrate --noinput
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml exec web python manage.py loaddata customers.json staff.json rooms.json events.json

INFO: we are not putting migrations on version control because this is a fresh start project.
Usually we put migrations on version control when we have a older project or a project where we expect to grow.

Building and Running Development environment (DEV)

• BUILD

  docker-compose build --no-cache
  

• RUN

  docker-compose up -d
  

• STOP

  docker-compose down -v
  

• OPEN http://localhost:8000/

• SUPER USER & DJANGO ADMIN

  username: superuser
  password: password
  
  admin url: http://localhost:8000/admin
  

Building and Running production-ready environment (PROD)

• If you have DEV running first take it down.

  docker-compose down -v
  

• And then BUILD & RUN

  docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build
  

• FINALLY OPEN http://localhost:1337/

• STOP

  docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml down -v
  

• USERS & DJANGO ADMIN

  username: superuser
  password: password
  
  username: staff
  password: password
  
  admin url: http://localhost:8000/admin
  

Automated Tests

On DEV Environment tests are executed on every container start see entrypoint.sh and a test.log file is generated,
to run on demand see the commands bellow:

• DEV

  docker-compose exec web python manage.py test small_business.rooms small_business.events
  

• PROD

  docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml exec web python manage.py test small_business.rooms small_business.events

Common issue:

Use notepad++, go to edit -> EOL conversion -> change from CRLF to LF.

update: For VScode users: you can change CRLF to LF by clicking on CRLF present on lower right side in the status bar
