Usage / Installation

1. Clone stuffdb and modules

   git clone https://github.com/lrvick/stuffdb/
   git submodule update --init

2. Modify settings.py to your liking

   cd stuffdb
   cp settings.py.sample settings.py
   vim settings.py

3. Initialize database and static files

   ./manage.py syndb
   ./manage.py collectstatic

4. Start StuffDB

   ./manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8080
   

You should now be able to access stuffdb via http://localhost:8080 to create your first item.

The admin panel should be accessable with the admin user you just created via http://localhost:8080/admin

Notes

The runserver should only be used for testing/development. For deployment use please consider using a production-ready server like cherokee or nginx.

This is by no means production-ready code. Do not actually use it in production unless you wish to be eaten by a grue.
