This repository contains sources of Django application that powers DjangoGirls.org.

It's a simple CMS that contains 4 models:

• Event - a list of events
• EventPage - configuration of website
• EventPageContent - blocks of content that are visible on the website
• EventPageMenu - items of menu of every website

Simply go to command line and run this command:

python ./manage.py new_event

And then follow the instructions.

http://djangogirls.org/admin/core/eventpage/

Here you can change:

• Meta tags - title and description of the website
• Main color - main color on the website in HEX (default is FF9400)
• Custom CSS - customize CSS on the website
• URL - url that goes after the domain (http://djangogirls.org/__url__)
• Is live? - live website is available on the homepage and can be accessed by anyone

http://djangogirls.org/admin/core/eventpagecontent/

Each website comes with some default content that you can adjust to your needs. Each object is a "block" on the website that you can modify in following ways:

• Name - it's also a permalink that you can link to like this: #name
• Content - HTML is allowed
• Background - there are two available types of blocks: without background and with background. By uploading image you're choosing the type with background.
• Is public - check this if you want this block to be visible

http://djangogirls.org/admin/core/eventpagemenu/add/

To manage menu available on the website, you can add objects to EventPageMenu. Available options:

• Title
• URL

The website is hosted on PythonAnywhere and is available here: http://djangogirls.org/

We have an auto-deploy thing going on, so everything commited to master is automatically deployed to our Heroku.

First, clone the repository:

git clone git@github.com:DjangoGirls/djangogirls.git

Step into newly created djangogirls directory:

cd djangogirls

Create a new virtual environment if needed. Then, install all the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Start the PostgreSQL database server and enter the psql shell (you need to have PostgreSQL installed):

psql

In the psql shell, create a database and a role with the nessesary permissions:

CREATE DATABASE djangogirls;
CREATE ROLE postgres;
GRANT ALL privileges ON DATABASE djangogirls TO postgres;
ALTER ROLE postgres WITH LOGIN;

Exit the psql shell:

\q

Run the migration to create database schema:

./manage.py migrate

Load sample data to the database

./manage.py loaddata sample_db.json

Create a user so you can login to the admin:

./manage.py createsuperuser

Install dependencies for static files:

npm install

Compile CSS and JS files:

gulp watch

Run your local server:

 ./manage.py runserver

🎉 You're done.

You can run the tests like this:

py.test

Or if you want coverage reports:

py.test --cov

We're using a Stylus as our CSS pre-processor. Get styling with Stylus.

This means you shouldn't change any css files, but .styl files. They're in /static/source/css/ directory.

Autocompiling of .styl files to .css:

gulp watch

We're also using gulp for our static files builds. To build static files for production, run this:

gulp build

For local development:

gulp local

Key bits of config and secrets are stored in environment variables in two places:

• in the WSGI file (linked from the Web Tab)
• in the virtualenv postactivate at ~/.virtualenvs/djangogirls.com/bin/postactivate
