Games of chance with lookahead. API and utilities.

1. Get homebrew.

2. Install Python v3.6+

  $ brew install python

3. Install PostgreSQL 11+

  $ brew install postgres

4. Create the development database:

  $ createdb bigboxx-psql

Modify pg_hba.conf to allow database access without passwords. Locate the file by running locate pg_hba.conf in the command line.

Modify pg_hba.conf saved under the /etc folder - change md5 or peer to trust

Restart PostgreSQL

$ sudo service postgresql restart

Create a superuser under your username.

  $ sudo su - postgres
  postgres $ psql compt-psql
  # CREATE USER <your username>;
  CREATE ROLE
  # ALTER USER <your username> WITH SUPERUSER;
  ALTER ROLE

Verify that users postgres and <your username> have access to the database

  $ psql --user postgres
  $ psql --user <your username>

5. Install Python modules

  $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

6. Link environment settings.

  $ cd bigboxx/
  $ ln -s ../conf/dev/settings.env ./.env

7. Initialize the database schema.

  $ make migrate

1. Run the Django server in a dedicated shell tab.

  $ make run

Django logger messages will appear in the shell.

2. Use the URL http://localhost:8800/ to access the local app.

3. When database migrations are required, generate the migration files.

  $ make migrations
