Setup Instructions

Prerequisites

1. Python: Version 3.8 or higher.
2. MySQL: Ensure MySQL server is installed and running.
3. Virtual Environment: Use virtualenv or venv.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/morteza80mr/driving-school-web-app.git
   cd driving-school-web-app
   

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   • On Linux/Mac:

     python -m venv myenv
     source myenv/bin/activate

   • On Windows:

     python -m venv myenv
     myenv\Scripts\activate

3. Install dependencies from the requirements.txt file:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

4. Set up the database:

   • Create a MySQL database named driving_school_project.
   • Update the settings.py file in the Django project directory with your MySQL credentials:

     DATABASES = {
         'default': {
             'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
             'NAME': 'driving_school_project',
             'USER': '<your-database-username>',
             'PASSWORD': '<your-database-password>',
             'HOST': 'localhost',
             'PORT': '3306',
         }
     }

5. Apply migrations to create the necessary database tables:

   python manage.py makemigrations
   python manage.py migrate
   

6. Create a superuser account to access the Django admin panel:

   python manage.py createsuperuser
   

7. Run the development server:

   python manage.py runserver
   

8. Open your browser and navigate to:

   • Main application:

     http://127.0.0.1:8000
     

   • Admin panel:

     http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin
