Kanban backend built with Django Rest Framework

Boards. Agile, scrum, travel itineraries, whatever you want.

The frontend, built with Vue, is in this repo.

Setup to run locally,

clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/mellkior/kanban.git

create and activate virtual environment (optional, recommended)

Create a virtual environment in the project root python -m venv env

Activate the environment Mac OS or Linux: source env/bin/activate Windows: env\Scripts\activate

install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

create sqlite database and schema

django does this for us with a single command manage.py migrate

create an admin user (superuser)

manage.py createsuperuser

set environment variables

set DEBUG = "True" and SECRET_KEY = "a_long_random_string"

run the development server

manage.py runserver

Troubleshooting

If you get a "Bad Request (400)" when you visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/, you probably didn't set DEBUG=True. In bash, use export DEBUG=True before running manage.py runserver. In Windows command prompt, use set DEBUG=True. Alternatively, you can edit settings.py.
