Getting Up and Running Locally

Prerequisites

You should have Docker and Docker Compose in your system. Go to the installation instructions to download Docker and the instructions to download Docker Compose.

1. Run this command in the root directory of the Django project to build the stack:

(You will find "react-frontend" in the docker-compose file. Comment out it if you would like to use React.)

    docker-compose -f local.yml build

2. Run the stack

    docker-compose -f local.yml up

and then

    docker-compose up

3. If you would like to execute commands like "migrate", "createsuperuser", you can use this commands

    docker-compose -f local.yml run --rm django python manage.py migrate

    docker-compose -f local.yml run --rm django python manage.py createsuperuser

Configuration

Environment Variables

You can change the env variables for your needs. You can find them in

    .envs
    ├── .local
    │ ├── .django
    │ └── .postgres
    └── .production
    ├── .django
    └── .postgres

If you would need to merge .envs/.production/* in a single file, you can run the command

    python merge_production_dotenvs_in_dotenv.py
