Quick-start

1. Clone the repo::

    git clone [email protected]:hermansc/django-appengine-boilerplate.git
   

2. cd to newly downladed files::

    cd django-appengine-boilerplate
   

3. Run setup script::

    sh setup.sh
   

... Wait for the script to finish. Try with sudo if it gives permission errors.

4. Test that it all works by "cd src/" and "python manage.py runserver"

5. Bonus: could be a good idea to create a superuser too; "python manage.py createsuperuser"

Deployment

When deploying you should only deploy the src/ folder, which should contain ~3000 files.

What does it do?

The setup.sh script, basically just runs a bunch of commands i a series.

First, it downloads the following frameworks:

• django-nonrel <http://bitbucket.org/wkornewald/django-nonrel/get/tip.zip>_

• djangoappengine <http://bitbucket.org/wkornewald/djangoappengine/get/tip.zip">_

• djangotoolbox <http://bitbucket.org/wkornewald/djangotoolbox/get/tip.zip>_

• django-autoload <http://bitbucket.org/twanschik/django-autoload/get/tip.zip>_

• django-dbindexer <http://bitbucket.org/wkornewald/django-dbindexer/get/tip.zip>_

Second, it deletes docs/ extras/ scripts/ etc. from the django-nonrel installation and creates a backup of it in lib/ Same goes for the other frameworks: extract the module, create backup in lib/

In the end it just counts the total files in the src/ folder, which is to be deployed.
