Project for Mystery Movie voting and tracking.

Required software

• Python 3
• MySQL server
• libmysqlclient (https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/c-api/)
• (Optional) Python 3 venv

Install and run

• (Optional) Make a new venv: python3 -m venv .venv
  • Activate with: source .env/bin/activate
• Install requirements: pip3 install requirements.txt
• Generate and set .env in settings:
  • SECRET_KEY should be python3 -c 'from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key; print(get_random_secret_key())'
  • DB_NAME, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD can be set to whatever your MySQL setup is, like

  sudo mysql
  
  mysql> CREATE DATABASE mmg_1;
  mysql> CREATE USER 'mmg_user_a'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'mmg_password';
  mysql> GRANT CREATE, ALTER, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, SELECT, REFERENCES ON mmg_1.* TO 'mmg_user_a'@'localhost';
  Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
  

  • would result in the fields in the .env being:

  DB_NAME=mmg_1
  DB_USER=mmg_user_a
  DB_PASSWORD=mmg_password
  

• Run initial migrations: python3 manage.py migrate --settings=mmg.settings.development
