Example projector-based project¶
New in version 0.1.7.
We have included example project for django-projector
and it can be found
at (surprise!) example_project
directory within both repository and source
release. As django-projector
has many dependancies (see Installation)
it may be hard to start at the first glance but this sample project can be used
as entry point.
Note
We use example project to run tests.
In order to run example project we need to make some preparation first.
Prepare¶
Step 1 - media files¶
When specifing commands we assume we are at example_project
directory.
Before we can run example project we need to include media files. Thanks to
django-richtemplates this is as easy as running one management command:
python manage.py import_media richtemplates projector
This would fetch all necessary media files and put them into MEDIA_ROOT
defined at settings module.
Step 2 - database¶
Now we need to create database (we use sqlite3
backend for sample project).
Type following command:
python manage.py syncdb
Step 3 - fire up a worker¶
We need to run a celery worker for some heavy jobs to be done asynchronously. As we use celery we need to start it at one terminal:
python manage.py celeryd -l DEBUG
Step 4 - finalize¶
In fact there is no step 4 - simply run development server:
python manage.py runserver
... and open http://localhost:8000
location in a browser.
