WARNING!!! before starting the app, you should check if there's a sca_web_back/secret_config.py file. It should contain just one variable TOP_SECRET_KEY = "...some_long_15+string"
If there isn't, you will have to create this file yourself, otherwice the app won't start. (Or you can specify the key directly in sca_web_back/settings.py, SECRET_KEY = ...).
This is made in order not to store the key in repository.
WARNING 2!!! See the authorization and security section of this README.MD
AUTHENTICATION
Now SCA WEB ACCESS component uses 'rest_framework.authtoken' and 'corsheaders' as authentication and CORS handling middleware.
Users need login & password to log in and use the SCA WEB ACCESS.
But Users are symply Django-admin superusers! So you can register a new user via console.
cd sca_web_back
python manage.py createsuperuser
and just follow the instructions
And the username and password you specify in createsuperuser, you will later use to log in via your browser.
CROSS-ORIGIN-REQUESTS
sca_web_back by default accepts requests only from http://localhost:3000. That's the default host that yarn development server runs. If needed, you can add another
host to make django backend work with it. Open sca_web_back/settings.py and add your host into list:
CORS_ORIGIN_WHITELIST = (
"localhost:3000",
)
