ehetuan-api is a django backend for angular 5 website

python 3.6.2 django 2.0

Open a command line window, cd to rdshop-api folder, and create a py3 virtual environment folder:

> cd ehetuan-api
> python -m venv py3

If you have both python2.7 and python3.6 in your machine, use python3

> cd ehetuan-api
> python3 -m venv py3

When you are going to install python libraries, you need to activate virtual env first.

For Windows:

activate virtual env (Windows):

> cd rdshop-api
> py3/Scripts/activate.bat

Deactivate virtual env (Windows):

> py3/Scripts/deactivate.bat

For Linux/Mac:

activate virtual env (Linux/Mac):

> cd py3
> . py3/bin/activate

Deactivate virtual env (Linux/Mac):

> . py3/bin/deactivate

Before this step make sure you have install the mysql mysql, connector and mysql-dev.

For Linux:

> yum install mysql-server mysql-client mysql-dev

Go to mysql official and download connector and install, you must install this connector before install mysqlclient

> export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin
> pip install -r requirements.txt

or

> pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Note: If you cannot install mysqlclient with pip install, Install mysqlclient with python wheel file. You should be able to google and find suitable wheel file.

To create database, open mysql shell and issue command:

mysql -u <your mysql username> -p

mysql> CREATE DATABASE ehetuan CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

mysql> CREATE USER 'mydbuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'mypasswd';
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'mydbuser'@'localhost';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Create a .config.json file, change username and password of your mysql and place under the rdshop-api's parent folder with following content:

{
    "APP_DOMAIN":"127.0.0.1",
    "API_DOMAIN":"127.0.0.1",
    "API_PORT":8000,
    "ENV":"production",
	"DATABASE":{
		"NAME":"mydb",
		"USERNAME":"mydbuser",
		"PASSWORD":"mydbpass"
	},
	"SENDGRID":{
		"API_KEY":"my_api_key"
	}
}

> cd ehetuan-api
> python3 manage.py makemigrations account commerce
> python3 manage.py migrate

In mysql workbench run the scripts under sql-scripts/location.sql

> python3 manage.py createsuperuser --username admin

> cd rdshop-api
> python3 manage.py runserver

Open a browser, type http://localhost:8000/admin in address bar, and use admin credential you just created to login admin page.
