ContriHUB - 22

ContriHUB is an event where we are expecting to get more and more people involved in Open Source activities.

How to run locally?

  • Install Python
  • Clone this repository
    git clone https://github.com/ContriHUB/ContriHUB-22.git
    
  • Create Virtual Environment
    python -m venv <env_name>
    
  • Activate the environment
    • On Windows, run: <env_name>\Scripts\activate
    • On Linux/Mac, run: source <env_name>/bin/activate
  • Install the dependencies
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    
  • Change directory to ContriHUB-22
    cd ContriHUB-22
    
  • Create a .env file
    • In Windows, Right Click, Open Git Bash here, and run: touch .env
    • In Linux/Mac, run: touch .env
  • Fill the contents of .env by following the format given in sample_env_file.txt
    • You can use this to generate SECRET_KEY, otherwise just remove that from .env file and it should work fine.
    • You will need to create a Github OAuth App in order to fill SOCIAL_AUTH_GITHUB_KEY and SOCIAL_AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET fields.
    • Put both Homepage URL and Authorization callback URL as http://127.0.0.1:8000/.
    • If you want to work on Email Sending Issue, you also need to fill you Email (GMail) in EMAIL_HOST_USER and your Email password in EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD. (Now you know why you should never push .env file to remote).
    • You will also need to Allow Access to Less Secure Apps in your GMail Account.
    • You can also create a new G-Mail account to avoid using your personal account.
  • To apply the migrations run,
    python manage.py migrate
    
  • Now to run the server, and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/.
    python manage.py runserver
    
  • To access admin panel, you need to be superuser. Follow this link for instructions.

Points to keep in mind

  • SMTP protocol will not work with proxy. Kindly use mobile data while requesting an assignment/ submitting PR link/ testing out email functionality.

  • Every python project will be following some linting rules - Flake8 in this case. Kindly run Flake8 tests before submitting your code. To install Flake8, run this command:

    python<version> -m pip install flake8
    

    To run Flake8 tests on a file, run this command:

    flake8 path/to/your_code/main.py #check particular file
    

    or for an entire repository, run this command:

    flake8 path/to/your_project/ #check the entire project repo
