Scipion web development setup
Current framework is Django. In the Introduction to Django you will find more details about the framework (application structure, settings…)
The simplest setup is just use a local Django server: run the run_webserver script, and then browse http://localhost:8000/projects
(Note: the script starts the web server listening to 0.0.0.0, so it might be accessible from other computers too)
Django scripts need write permission in $SCIPION_HOME
Matplotlib also needs write permission (by default, to ~/.matplotlib)
The recommended procedure is to setup a replica of the production environment on your development machine. Actually it takes little work, and you will be doing the test in the same environment as production.
