thepicklebook

I wanted to re-learn Django (and Vue.js) so I figured I'd design a pickle-based social network

The pickle data is partially seeded from The Open Grocery Database Project

Setting up your environment

You'll need the following environment variables set:

  • DJANGO_POSTGRES_DB_NAME the name of the database
  • DJANGO_POSTGRES_USER_NAME the user name for the database
  • DJANGO_POSTGRES_PASSWORD the password for the database
  • DJANGO_POSTGRES_HOST the host of the database
  • DJANGO_POSTGRES_PORT the port of the database
  • DJANGO_SECRET the secret key to use for the application

If you're doing local development with a dockerized postgres instance, you'll also need to set up a .env file in the ./db directory:

POSTGRES_USER: <user>
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: <password>
POSTGRES_DB: <database name>

Make sure these values equal the values in the environment values. Also if you are planning to use a post other than 5432 update the docker-compose.yml file. For instance, if your new port is 7777 then the ports section would read 7777:5432

Running Locally

Once you've set up your system environment variables, open a terminal window, navigate to ./db and enter the command docker compose up. In a second terminal window, navigate to the base directory and run python manage.py runserver
