Todo is a very basic CRUD app that uses Django Cookiecutter. Basically I wanted to play with Cookiecutter and see if it was nice. It's pretty nice.

I've made a few personal changes:
-
In production.yml, the Traefik ports are set to
localhost:801
and:4431
. This is because Todo is hosted on my AWS EC2 instance, with other personal projects. To route traffic, I use Nginx as a reverse proxy. Nginx listens on ports 80 and 443, so, to avoid a conflict, I make Traefik listen on ports 80 #1 and 443 #1 and Nginx passes through the traffic. If you do this, be sure to pass through the original header of the request. By default, Nginx redefines the Host field in proxied requests, but Django is configured to only accept connections from the original Host and will reject all others. This is my Nginx configuration file. -
In .pre-commit-config.yaml, I've cut flake8. I've got black, it's enough.
-
The main Django app providing the Todo functionality is called
appcore
. With hindsight, I might've called it eithercore
ortodocore
. This is mostly a note to myself. -
Remember to create your
__init__.py
files when creating a new Django app. -
In requirements/base.txt,
pytz
is commented out, as it is deprecated. In requirements/local.txt, I'm usingpsycopg2-binary
, as I had issues withpsycopg2
. -
In config/settings/production.py, in order to use Amazon SES for email and avoid a
NoRegionError
, include the AWS region you're using. This Stackoverflow answer was helpful. -
In config/urls.py, the root URLs come from
appcore
, which makes much more sense to me than the usinghome
orabout
pages that aren't connected to any app. I've cut those pages.
Overall, Django Cookiecutter was a nice experience.
