This project is abandoned. There might be a day I will come back to it but not in recent future (November, 2016).

  • Prerequisites
  • Dev requirements
  • Getting Started
  • Launching
  • Git Flow

Prerequisites

Python > 2.7, PIP, Homebrew (Mac OSX), Git (and a github account), VirtualEnv (mkvirtualenv helper script)

Dev requirements

MySQL, Apache

Ubuntu/Mint

sudo apt-get install git python-dev python-pip libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libmysqlclient-dev

All dist

sudo easy_install pip
sudo pip install flup

Getting Started

Preparing virtualenv paths (optional if your profile doesn't have it).

export WORKON_HOME=~/Envs
source /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper_lazy.sh or source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper_lazy.sh

Start by creating a virtual environment using the helper scripts provided. Do not include the systems site-packages.

mkvirtualenv sew --no-site-packages
workon sew

Clone the Github repository if you have not done so yet. You will need a git account to do this.

[email protected]:jacoor/sew_django.git

Move into the newly created Project Data folder and install the Python requirements using PIP, which are located in the requirements.txt file. Ensure the platform requirements are installed (python-dev/python-devel).

pip install -r requirements.txt

Create local settings or copy from config into your project root and custom it.

cp config/local_settings.py styleguide/local_settings.py

Upon successful completion of the installation initialize the database. (NOTE: database must be running.)

./manage.py syncdb --migrate

Get Sass (OSX. for linux you need to do your own research :P )

sudo gem install sass
sudo gem install compass

Be sure to have

INTERNAL_IPS = (
    "127.0.0.1",
)

in your local settings, otherwise live reload of css will not work.

Create the static

./manage.py collectstatic -v0 --noinput && ./manage.py compress -f

Launching

this makes sass watch for scss file change, thus enabling live css reload

python sass.py

./manage.py runserver

Git Flow

git flow init -d If you run into problems: git checkout master && git pull && git checkout develop && git pull && git flow init -d
