DBMS mini-project 1st Sem. It's a fictious service center where users can keep track of their gadgets and miscellaneous repair requests/complaints. Database used is MySql. A quick demo of this project can be seen here. If you'd like to try it locally on your machine follow the steps below:
- Django - Web framework used
- Bootstrap - For designing pages
- Heroku - For working with project in production
It's better to work with this sample in a virtual environment so that you don't mess with the existing python packages. If you don't have virtualenv, open a terminal window and install it by typing this:
sudo apt install virtualenv
Navigate to your users home directory:
cd
Create a directory named python env
mkdir py-env
Navigate in the newly created directory:
cd py-env
Create a virtual environment in Python 3 with the environment name of env:
virtualenv -p python3 env
Validate that environment is installed with python3:
ls env/lib
source env/bin/activate
Make sure you're in the home directory of the project (that is, wherever the manage.py file is present). Now, install the required dependencies via :
pip install -r requirements.txt
If you want to deactivate virtualenv, do it by simply typing 'deactivate'.
Create the database by doing this :
python manage.py migrate
Run the project on localhost by typing this into the terminal :
python manage.py runserver
