Installing brutaldon
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Brutaldon is a perfectly normal Django app, so if you've ever installed a Django app, it should be straightforward. It will work either as a local application, or installed on a server.
|
|
|
|
For either case, you will need Python 3 installed to start with, including pip.
|
|
|
|
Common steps
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------
|
|
If you haven't already, you need to install [Pipenv][pe], a tool for managing Python virtual environments.
|
|
|
|
You can install it just with `pip install pipenv`.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Development or local install
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
In the top brutaldon directory, run `pipenv install`. This will install all the dependencies. Then run `pipenv run python ./manage.py migrate`. That will create a SQLite database the application needs. Then run `pipenv run python ./manage.py runserver`. That will start a local server on http://localhost:8000/.
|
|
|
|
Point your browser to that address and log in to your instance. You will have to log in with the alternate (username and password) method.
|
|
|
|
Server installation
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
This will depend on your server setup, and you should consult [Deploying Django][dd]. Be sure to read the [Deployment checklist][dc], because some things in it are security critical. You will also want to set up a database. Brutaldon doesn't use the database very heavily, so if you only have a few users, the default SQLite is probably fine and doesn't require any additional setup.
|
|
|
|
One common step would be to install dependencies like this: `PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=1 pipenv install`. This will install dependencies within the project folder.
|
|
|
|
Then edit brutaldon/settings.py. You definitely need to change the values of SECRET_KEY and ALLOWED_HOSTS. Also edit the database parameters to match the database you chose. Then run `pipenv run python ./manage.py migrate` to populate the database.
|
|
|
|
I installed brutaldon with Apache and mod_wsgi. If you installed brutaldon in /usr/local/share/, you'd add config lines something like this to the virtual host brutaldon is installed in.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Alias /brutaldon/static /usr/local/share/brutaldon/brutaldon/static
|
|
<Directory /usr/local/share/brutaldon/brutaldon/static>
|
|
Require all granted
|
|
</Directory>
|
|
|
|
WSGIScriptAlias /brutaldon /usr/local/share/brutaldon/brutaldon/wsgi.py
|
|
WSGIDaemonProcess brutaldon python-path=/usr/local/share/brutaldon python-home=/usr/local/share/brutaldon/.venv
|
|
|
|
<Directory /usr/local/share/brutaldon/brutaldon>
|
|
<Files wsgi.py>
|
|
Require all granted
|
|
</Files>
|
|
</Directory>
|
|
```
