Installation

Install Python and the web2py framework server application on the deployment service. For reference, we used the hosting service PythonAnywhere which automates the web2py installation process, and has a free plan for developers with minimal bandwidth/performance.

Clone the project into the web2py/applications directory with

git clone http://github.com/Fence-UCSC/Storefront web2py/applications/Storefront

Then start the web2py server with the following

python web2py/web2py.py

Note that by default, the site comes with DEVELOPMENT_MENU = True in models/list.py. This exposes a dropdown menu in the top bar with links to useful tools such as an online view of the database, and the capability to edit the site remotely. This is not particularly harmful, as the dev tools are protected with the account you use to start web2py, but may confuse users. It is recommended that you turn this setting off before deploying the site for public use.
