Overview

Simple Project to quickly get a new Django environment up and running

Using the Project

1. Create a new repo on github with
2. git clone https://github.com/fullerth/DjangoSetup.git <new-repo-name>
3. Change the new repo origin to

git remote rm origin
git remote add origin <new-repo-url>

1. Edit this README.md to discuss the new project.
2. Checkin and push to test the new repo
3. Create a virtual environment

• python3 -m venv <new-repo-name>_venv

1. Install requirements

• pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Make a Django site

Templates

Both project and app templates for django-admin/manage.py are provided.

To create a project, from the root directory use: django-admin startproject --template project_template <project-name> source

To create a new application with the template use: manage.py startapp --template <path-to-app-template> <app-name>

Virtual Environment

The project will ignore a virtual environment in django_setup_venv. After cloning the project change this in .gitignore to a sane value for the new project.
