astrosat/django-astrosat-core

Common backend library for Astrosat projects' core functionality

django-astrosat-core

quick start

1. in the project you want to use it type: pipenv install -e git+https://github.com/astrosat/django-astrosat-core.git@master#egg=django-astrosat

2. add "astrosat" to your INSTALLED_APPS settings like this:

     INSTALLED_APPS = [
         ...
         'astrosat',
         ...
    ]

2. include the astrosat URLconf in your project "urls.py" like this:

    path("", include("astrosat.urls")

3. run python manage.py migrate to create the astrosat models.

4. profit!

developing

django-astrosat-core comes w/ an example project to help w/ developing/testing

1. git clone https://github.com/astrosat/django-astrosat-core.git
2. cd django-astrosat-core/example
3. activate virtual environments as desired
4. pipenv install
5. python manage.py makemigrations && python manage.py migrate as needed
6. python manage.py collectstatic --noinput as needed
7. python manage.py runserver goto "http://localhost:8000" and enjoy

note that "django-astrosat-core/examples/Pipfile" was created using pipenv install -e ..; this uses a pointer to "django-astrosat-core/setup.py" in the virtual environment and creates a entry like [packages.ed0a5ba]; if the distribution changes just run pipenv update ed0a5ba, otherwise code changes should just be picked up b/c of the -e flag.

Note note that when things go wrong, I tend to get this error: "LookupError: No installed app with label 'admin'."
