Steps

Step 1: Create a virtual environment to hold all pip libraries installations

If you don’t have virtualenv installed, you can install it by running the following command in your CMD after Python was installed:

Create virtual environment for Python python3 -m venv .venv

Step 2 : Activate the environment:

source ./venv/bin/activate
source ./venv/bin/deactivate ( To Deactivate )

Step 3: Create project folder

mkdir app

Step 4: Install Django

pip install django

Step 5: Create a new Django project inside the project folder

A Django app is a self-contained component of a Django project. It is a module that provides specific functionality, such as handling authentication, managing blog posts, or serving an API. An app should represent a single, specific functionality or purpose within the overall website.

django-admin startproject django-multitenant-saas-ecommerce-kubernetes

Step 6: Create a new test app:

within the django project using the following command:

python manage.py startapp testapp

Adding a new app into the project

python manage.py startapp home apps/home

Step 7 : Execute ORM Data Migrations:

python manage.py makemigrations

python manage.py migrate

Step 8: Launch the django development server

python manage.py runserver

Step 9: create admin user

python manage.py createsuperuser

start using shell

bash ./server-entrypoint.sh

Docker

bash ./run.sh
