The development environment can be setup either like a pythonista with the usual python module setup, or like a docker user.

Ensure that you have an updated version of pip

pip --version

Should atleast be 1.5.4

If pip version is less than 1.5.4 upgrade it

pip install -U pip

This will install latest pip

Ensure that you are in virtualenv if not install virtual env

sudo pip install virtualenv

This will make install all dependencies to the virtualenv not on your root

From the module folder install the dependencies. This also installs the module itself in a very pythonic way.

pip install -r requirements.txt

Postgresql must be installed. if not, install postgres and its server-side extensions

export DB_NAME="Your's DATABASE NAME"

export USERNAME="Your's USERNAME"

export PASSWORD="Your's PASSWORD"

if running database on local then use this command

export HOST="localhost"

else

export HOST="Your's host for database path"

also developer need to export their secret key

export SECRET_KEY="Your's Secret Key"

Run app by

python manage.py runserver
