Settings

echo_seeds relies extensively on environment settings which will not work with Apache/mod_wsgi setups. It has been deployed successfully with both Gunicorn/Nginx and even uWSGI/Nginx.

For configuration purposes, the following table maps the 'echo_seeds' environment variables to their Django setting:

Environment Variable Django Setting Development Default Production Default
DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID n/a raises error
DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY n/a raises error
DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME n/a raises error
DJANGO_CACHES CACHES locmem memcached

Getting up and running

The steps below will get you up and running with a local development environment. We assume you have the following installed:

  • pip
  • virtualenv
  • PostgreSQL

First make sure to create and activate a virtualenv, then open a terminal at the project root and install the requirements for local development:

$ pip install -r requirements/local.txt

You can now run the usual Django runserver command (replace yourapp with the name of the directory containing the Django project):

$ python yourapp/manage.py runserver

The base app will run but you'll need to carry out a few steps to make the sign-up and login forms work. These are currently detailed in issue #39.

Live reloading and Sass CSS compilation

If you'd like to take advantage of live reloading and Sass / Compass CSS compilation you can do so with the included Grunt task.

Make sure that nodejs is installed. Then in the project root run:

$ npm install grunt

Now you just need:

$ grunt serve

The base app will now run as it would with the usual manage.py runserver but with live reloading and Sass compilation enabled.

To get live reloading to work you'll probably need to install an appropriate browser extension

It's time to write the code!!!

Deployment

It is possible to deploy to Heroku or to your own server by using Dokku, an open source Heroku clone.

Heroku

Run these commands to deploy the project to Heroku:

heroku create --buildpack https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-python
heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:dev
heroku addons:add pgbackups:auto-month
heroku addons:add sendgrid:starter
heroku addons:add memcachier:dev
heroku pg:promote DATABASE_URL
heroku config:set DJANGO_CONFIGURATION=Production
heroku config:set DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=RANDOM_SECRET_KEY_HERE
heroku config:set DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_AWS_ID_HERE
heroku config:set DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_HERE
heroku config:set DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME=YOUR_AWS_S3_BUCKET_NAME_HERE
git push heroku master
heroku run python echo_seeds/manage.py migrate
heroku run python echo_seeds/manage.py createsuperuser
heroku open

Dokku

You need to make sure you have a server running Dokku with at least 1GB of RAM. Backing services are added just like in Heroku however you must ensure you have the relevant Dokku plugins installed.

cd /var/lib/dokku/plugins
git clone https://github.com/rlaneve/dokku-link.git link
git clone https://github.com/jezdez/dokku-memcached-plugin memcached
git clone https://github.com/jezdez/dokku-postgres-plugin postgres
dokku plugins-install

You can specify the buildpack you wish to use by creating a file name .env containing the following.

export BUILDPACK_URL=<repository>

You can then deploy by running the following commands.

git remote add dokku [email protected]:echo_seeds
git push dokku master
ssh -t [email protected] dokku memcached:create echo_seeds-memcached
ssh -t [email protected] dokku memcached:link echo_seeds-memcached echo_seeds
ssh -t [email protected] dokku postgres:create echo_seeds-postgres
ssh -t [email protected] dokku postgres:link echo_seeds-postgres echo_seeds
ssh -t [email protected] dokku config:set echo_seeds DJANGO_CONFIGURATION=Production
ssh -t [email protected] dokku config:set echo_seeds DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=RANDOM_SECRET_KEY_HERE
ssh -t [email protected] dokku config:set echo_seeds DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_AWS_ID_HERE
ssh -t [email protected] dokku config:set echo_seeds DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_HERE
ssh -t [email protected] dokku config:set echo_seeds DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME=YOUR_AWS_S3_BUCKET_NAME_HERE
ssh -t [email protected] dokku config:set echo_seeds SENDGRID_USERNAME=YOUR_SENDGRID_USERNAME
ssh -t [email protected] dokku config:set echo_seeds SENDGRID_PASSWORD=YOUR_SENDGRID_PASSWORD
ssh -t [email protected] dokku run echo_seeds python echo_seeds/manage.py migrate
ssh -t [email protected] dokku run echo_seeds python echo_seeds/manage.py createsuperuser

When deploying via Dokku make sure you backup your database in some fashion as it is NOT done automatically.
