PLEASE NOTE: This is pre-alpha software and is in a continuous state of flux. Please do not rely on it for anything.
Things you need to do before running the application:
This application depends on metOcean-mapping.
-
The Python modules in metOcean-mapping need to be installed (see setup.py)
-
metOcean-mapping's fuseki server needs to be running, providing a SPARQL endpoint
-
create a python file called 'settings_local.py', which will be imported in to the Django startup 'settings.py' file upon launch.
-
copy the DATABASES dictionary from 'settings.py' into 'settings_local.py' e.g. DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.', # Add 'postgresql_psycopg2', 'postgresql', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'. 'NAME': '',# Or path to database file if using sqlite3. 'USER': '', # Not used with sqlite3. 'PASSWORD': '', # Not used with sqlite3. 'HOST': '', # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3. 'PORT': '', # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3. } }
-
In 'settings_local.py', override the following two variables: DATABASES['default']['ENGINE'] = "django.db.backends.sqlite3" DATABASES['default']['NAME'] = ''
If you are not using SQLite3, please consult the Django documentation for details of other supported databases.
-
In 'settings_local.py' overide the TEMPLATE_DIRS variable with the absolute path to the applications template directory: TEMPLATE_DIRS = ('/manager/templates',)
-
run 'python ./manage.py syncdb' to create and populate your Django database
