To run locally, do the usual:

1. Create a virtualenv

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r deploy-requirements.txt
   pip install -r local-requirements.txt

   If you only need to deploy, and don't need to test any changes, you can use deploy-requirements.txt only.

3. Create a 'secrets.json' file in the directory above the checkout, containing something like:

   { "secret_key": "xyz",
     "superfeedr_creds": ["any@email.com", "some_string"] }

4. Create databases:

   createuser -d djangoproject
   createdb -O djangoproject djangoproject
   createuser code.djangoproject
   createdb -O code.djangoproject code.djangoproject

5. Set debug environment variable:

   export DJANGOPROJECT_DEBUG=1

   The code of the project uses this env variable to distinguish between production and development. Set it to 1 to disable settings that are only relevant on the production server.

6. Create tables:

   psql -d code.djangoproject < tracdb/trac.sql
   
   ./manage.py migrate

   and:

   ./manage.py migrate --docs

   if you want to run docs site.

7. Create a superuser:

   ./manage.py createsuperuser

8. For docs:

   ./manage.py loaddata doc_releases.json --docs
   ./manage.py update_docs --docs

9. Finally:

   ./manage.py runserver

   This runs as www.djangoproject.com, the main website.

   To run locally as docs.djangoproject.com, use:

   ./manage.py runserver --docs

In case you want to work on the stylesheets please install Compass with Rubygems:

gem install compass

You may have to prefix that command with sudo depending on your platform.

Then run the following to compile the Compass SASS files to CSS:

make compile-scss-debug

Alternatively you can also run the following command in a separate shell to continously watch for changes to the SASS files and automatically compile to CSS:

make watch-scss

Optionally you can use a tool like Foreman to run all process at once:

• the regular site (similar to www.djangoproject.com) on http://127.0.0.1:8000/
• the docs site (similar to docs.djangoproject.com) on port http://127.0.0.1:8001/
• the make task to automatically compile the SASS files to CSS files

This is great during development. Assuming you're using Foreman simply run:

foreman start

If you just want to run one of the processes defined above use the run subcommand like so:

foreman run www

That'll just run the www server.

Check out the Procfile file for all the process names.
