Bianca's Back End

Requirements

• Python 3.7.5
• You will need a secret .env file to access keys and tokens.
• PostgreSQL

Getting Started (without docker - no prod)

You will need a secret .env file to access keys and tokens.

1. python3 -m venv env to generate a virtual environment for the project
2. source env/bin/activate to activate virtual environment
3. Inside virtual env: pip install -r requirements.txt to install all necessary packages
4. Make sure you have a postgres database created that matches the one in .env
5. Make sure .env variable PROD is set to False

Helpfull commands (PosgreSQL_GetStarted):

• sudo -u postgres -i
• dropdb [DB NAME]
• createdb [DB NAME]
• psql (to activate interactive PostgreSQL client as user postgres if previous command)
  • \l (list db)
• psql databasename < data_base_dump

5. Apply migrations python manage.py makemigrations
6. Apply dump
7. Run python manage.py runserver

Getting Started Docker - Prod

1. Make sure .env variable PROD is set to True and .env DB_NAME is correctly set to db service
2. Run docker-compose build
3. Run docker-compose up
4. If you need to create a superuser, befor step 3:
   • Run docker-compose run --rm --entrypoint bash bianca_web this will create a container where you will have access to run python manage.py createsuperuser and this will be stored in the postgres db.
   • After this run step 3: docker-compose up
5. When finished: docker-compose down
