A python based backend that uses Django to store memories.

To run the server follow the steps below. You may either follow steps 1 and 2, or instead follow steps 1 and 2 in the docker instructions at the bottom of the page.

Before you start you should have python 2.7 installed. You can download it here.

pip install -r requirements.txt

python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver

You can check that the server is running by navigating to localhost:8000. This will show the available routes.

For example localhost:8000/user/ would load the following when uname is “rabery”.

{
    "user_name": "rabery",
    "first": "Ryan",
    "last": "Rabello",
    "phone": "212-479-7990",
    "location": "Walla Walla, WA",
    "photo": "ryan.jpg",
    "email": "ryan.rabello@gmail.com",
    "birthdate": "1992-09-02"
}

You can run the server on a different port by running the following command.

python manage.py runserver <port>

Where port would be the number of the port you want to use.
