A simple Image Gallery made with Python and Django.

Description

Django Image Gallery is a platform where users can register and then upload their images. These images can be viewed by anyone. Accepted Image Formats : JPEG, JPG, PNG, GIF

Installation and Dependencies

After cloning the repository on your machine move into the src\ directory and install the dependencies by pip install requirements.txt

Create two directories media_cdn\ and static_cdn\ outside the src\ directory.

Connecting to database:

Create a database with name "imagesDB" and set the database settings in the settings file.

Starting the App

from the src\ directory run the following commands:

~/src$ python manage.py makemigrations
~/src$ python manage.py migrate
~/src$ python manage.py collectstatic
~/src$ python manage.py createsuperuser

then enter the details which will be asked, like username, email and password.

Now the app is fully setup. Run the following command to start the app in your browser:

~/src$ python manage.py runserver

Now just go to http://127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser to access the app. You can also go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin in your browser and login with your 'superuser' credentials (created in previous step) to access the admin panel.
