## Installing lostplaces # Installing a productive instance
### Install dependencies Currently there are two ways to deploy the lostplaces project:
Python3, Django3, easy-thumbnails, image, django-widget-tweaks, django-taggit 1. Cloning this repository, including the configured django instance
``` 2. Install the package and setup the django instance your self
pip install --user django easy-thumbnails image django-widget-tweaks django-taggit
```
Or, if you use pipenv
```
pipenv install / update
```
### Add 'lostplaces_app' to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this ## Cloning the repository
``` Essently, this is the same as installing an development instance, but without the development server (manage.py runserver) and something powerfull (Apache, NGINX) instead. You have to configure the webserve to work with the *SGI Api respectivly, reference [django's guide for deployment](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/howto/deployment/) for further information.
You also should setup an dedicated database server, the build in SQLite file is not recommened for production use. Reference [django's guide for databases](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/databases/) for further information.
Before making the django instance public, you should tweak the config `settings.py`:
1. Change the secret key, the one found in the config is already public. Choose something secure (i.e. [this](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=password+generator+64))
2. Turn off debug mode by setting `DEBUG = False`
3. Tune the localization settings, see [django's documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/i18n/)
Run `lostplaces/managy.py collectstatic` you should be ready to go.
## Installing the lostplaces_app to an existing django instance
### Installing django and the lostplaces app
If you haven't already setup an django instance, see [django's documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/install/).
After that, download the desired release (probably the latest one) [from the realeases page](https://git.mowoe.com/reverend/lostplaces-backend/releases) and install it using `pip install --user name-of-the-file.tar.gz`.
*Note: You can run pip install without the --user flag, which will require root privileges and introduces potential security issues*
### Configuring the django instance
Now configure your `settings.py` as follows:
1. Add the following apps to the django project
```python
INSTALLED_APPS = [ INSTALLED_APPS = [
... ...
'lostplaces_app', 'lostplaces_app',
@ -65,42 +93,41 @@ INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django_taggit' 'django_taggit'
] ]
``` ```
2. Set the URL's and Root-directories for file handling, for example
```python
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static_files')
### Add this configuration to your settings.py MEDIA_URL = '/uploads/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'uploads')
``` ```
from django.urls import reverse_lazy 3. Set the user model (this will be changed in the next release)
... ```python
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'lostplaces_app.Explorer' AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'lostplaces_app.Explorer'
```
4. Set the URL's for login, for example
```python
LOGIN_URL = reverse_lazy('login') LOGIN_URL = reverse_lazy('login')
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = reverse_lazy('lostplaces_home')
THUMBNAIL_ALIASES = { LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = reverse_lazy('lostplaces_home')
'': {
'thumbnail': {'size': (300, 300), 'crop': False},
'hero': {'size': (700, 700), 'crop': False},
'large': {'size': (1920, 1920), 'crop': False},
},
}
``` ```
### Configuring the URL's
### Include the lostplaces URLconf in your project urls.py like this In the `urls.py` configure the `urlpatter` like this
```python
```
from django.urls import path, include
...
urlpatterns = [ urlpatterns = [
... path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('lostplaces/', include('lostplaces_app.urls')), path('signup/', SignUpView.as_view(), name='signup'), # If you want to use lostplaces sign up view
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT) path('explorers/', include('django.contrib.auth.urls')), # You can change the 'explorers/' to whatever you desire
path('', include('lostplaces_app.urls')), # In this configuration lostplaces will be at the top level of you website, change '' to 'lostplaces/', if you don't want this
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT) # So django can deliver user uploaded files
``` ```
Run ``./manage.py migrate`` to create the lost places models. Before making the django instance public, you should tweak the config `settings.py`:
1. Change the secret key, the one found in the config is already public. Choose something secure (i.e. [this](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=password+generator+64))
Start the development server and visit http://localhost:8000/admin/ 2. Turn off debug mode by setting `DEBUG = False`
3. Tune the localization settings, see [django's documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/i18n/)
Visit http://localhost:8000/ to CRUD lost places.
Run `lostplaces/managy.py collectstatic` you should be ready to go.
