Welcome to the {{ project_name }} project

This project uses Django 1.5.1.

Getting Started

The following will help you get a development environment up and running:

?> virtualenv --distribute {{ project_name }}_env
?> cd {{ project_name }}_env
?> source ../bin/activate
?> git clone git@github.com:Threespot/{{ project_name }}.git
?> cd {{ project_name }}
?> pip install -r requirements/base.txt
?> pip install -r requirements/development.txt
?> ./manage.py syncdb --settings={{ project_name }}.settings.dev
?> ./manage.py runserver --settings={{ project_name }}.settings.dev

You can avoid having to pass the --settings={{ project_name }}.settings.dev argument to management commands by setting the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environmental variable. Just add the following line to your virtualenv's bin/activate script:

export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE="{{ project_name }}.settings.dev"
