Installation notes

See https://www.buggyrace.net/docs/ for full documentation for the buggy racing project.

Background

This app started out as a cookiecutter-flask. which means its structure was inherited from that.


Local "manual" installation:

If you want to run a local installation to play with it, see the developers' notes in DEVELOPMENT.md

The bare-default setup will run the buggy-racing server website locally on port 5000: hit it in a browser on http://localhost:5000/ using an SQLite database (not suitable for production! — see the development notes for using PostgreSQL or mySQL).

When the server first runs, it's in setup mode. You will be invited to change the authorisation code (which by default is CHANGEME), an admin username, and an admin password.

Once you've submitted that, you'll be logged in as that admin user, and you'll be guided through the setup. You must complete this process before the server is ready — it takes a few minutes. Most of the settings have sensible defaults.
