This is the official website for Python Nigeria Conference

Setting Up the repo for development

The project uses python3 specifically python3.6

  1. Before cloning the repo, create a parent folder

  2. clone the repo inside this folder just created

    $ git clone https://github.com/pyung/pyconng.git pycon
# ensure you switch to the develop branch
$ git checkout develop

  3. Create a virtual environment and activate it

    $ python -m venv venv
$ source venv\bin\activate
# ensure the version of pip is 18.1
$ pip install pip==18.1
$ cd pycon

# for window users
> venv\Scripts\activate

  4. Install all the dependencies for the project

    (venv)$ pip install -r requirements/local.txt

  5. Ensure you have Postgres database installed on your system. visit Postgres Download Section to download postgres for your respective OS

  6. Create a database using the default postgres user and create a db named pyconng

    $ createdb pyconng

    __This step isn't compulsory if you already have a database that you want to use or you are using pgadmin3 to create the database.

  7. Setup an environmental variable to map the database configuration

    export DATABASE_URL=postgres://<dbuser>:<dbpassword>@<dbhost>:<dbport>/pyconng
# remember to set this environment variable
export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=config.settings.local

  8. Run migrations

    python manage.py migrate

  9. Run fixtures (one time only)

    $ python manage.py loaddata fixtures/*

  10. If everything above was successful, you can go ahead and start the server

    $ python manage.py runserver_plus 

#there  is a chance you might run into segfault with runsrver

# if running on cloud9
python manage.py runserver $IP:$PORT

Extras. Useful for frontend developers and designers

This is important to those who would be working on converting the mockups to actual html/css

$ cd design
$ npm install -g parcel-bundler
$ npm install  #or yarn install if yarn is used
$ yarn start

The cloud9 url is at https://ide.c9.io/gbozee/pyconng
