Installation

  1. Install Python 3.7.2.
  2. Clone this repository: git clone git@github.com:sujithbattu/conduit-django.git.
  3. cd into conduit-django: cd conduit-django.
  4. Install virtualenv.
  5. Create a new virtualenv called "ENV": virtualenv ENV.
  6. Set the local virtualenv to "ENV": source ENV/bin/activate.

If all went well then your command line prompt should now start with (ENV).

  1. Install the required packages: pip install -r requirements.txt
  2. project should build and run with: python manage.py runserver

If your command line prompt does not start with (Env) at this point, try running source ENV/bin/activate or cd ../conduit-django.
