 Always happy to get issues identified and pull requests!
-## General considerations
+## Getting your pull request merged in
-1. Keep it small. The smaller the change, the more likely we are to accept.
+1.  Keep it small. The smaller the pull request, the more likely we are to accept.
-2. Changes that fix a current issue get priority for review.
+2.  Pull requests that fix a current issue get priority for review.
 3. Check out [GitHub guide][submit-a-pr] if you've never created a pull request before.
 ## Getting started
 1. Fork the repo
 2. Clone your fork
 3. Create a branch for your changes
 This last step is very important, don't start developing from master, it'll cause pain if you need to send another change later.
 ## Testing
 You'll need to run the tests using Python 3.12. We recommend using [tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to run the tests. It will automatically create a fresh virtual environment and install our test dependencies, such as [pytest-cookies](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytest-cookies/) and [flake8](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/flake8/).
 We'll also run the tests on GitHub actions when you send your pull request, but it's a good idea to run them locally before you send it.
 ### Installation
-We use uv to manage our environment and manage our Python installation. You can install it following the instructions at https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/
+Please install [tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), which is a generic virtualenv management and test command line tool.
-### Run the template's test suite
+[tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) is available for download from [PyPI](https://pypi.python.org/pypi) via [pip](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip/):
-To run the tests of the template using the current Python version:
+    $ pip install tox
-```bash
+It will automatically create a fresh virtual environment and install our test dependencies,
-$ uv run tox run -e py
+such as [pytest-cookies](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytest-cookies/) and [flake8](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/flake8/).
 ```
-This uses `pytest `under the hood, and you can pass options to it after a `--`. So to run a particular test:
+### Run the Tests
-```bash
+Tox uses pytest under the hood, hence it supports the same syntax for selecting tests.
 $ uv run tox run -e py -- -k test_default_configuration
 ```
-For further information, please consult the [pytest usage docs](https://pytest.org/en/latest/how-to/usage.html#specifying-which-tests-to-run).
+For further information please consult the [pytest usage docs](https://pytest.org/latest/usage.html#specifying-tests-selecting-tests).
-### Run the generated project tests
+To run all tests using various versions of python in virtualenvs defined in tox.ini, just run tox.:
-The template tests are checking that the generated project is fully rendered and that it passes `flake8`. We also have some test scripts which generate a specific project combination, install the dependencies, run the tests of the generated project, install FE dependencies and generate the docs. They will install the template dependencies, so make sure you create and activate a virtual environment first.
+    $ tox
-```bash
+It is possible to test with a specific version of python. To do this, the command
-$ python -m venv venv
+is:
 $ source venv/bin/activate
 ```
-These tests are slower and can be run with or without Docker:
+    $ tox -e py39
- Without Docker: `tests/test_bare.sh` (for bare metal)
+This will run pytest with the python3.9 interpreter, for example.
 - With Docker: `tests/test_docker.sh`
-All arguments to these scripts will be passed to the `cookiecutter` CLI, letting you set options, for example:
+To run a particular test with tox for against your current Python version:
-```bash
+    $ tox -e py -- -k test_default_configuration
 $ tests/test_bare.sh use_celery=y

 Getting Up and Running Locally With Docker
 ==========================================
 .. index:: Docker
 .. note::
    If you're new to Docker, please be aware that some resources are cached system-wide
    and might reappear if you generate a project multiple times with the same name (e.g.
    :ref:`this issue with Postgres <docker-postgres-auth-failed>`).
 Prerequisites
 -------------
 * Docker; if you don't have it yet, follow the `installation instructions`_;
 * Docker Compose; refer to the official documentation for the `installation guide`_.
 * Pre-commit; refer to the official documentation for the `pre-commit`_.
 * Cookiecutter; refer to the official GitHub repository of `Cookiecutter`_
 .. _`installation instructions`: https://docs.docker.com/install/#supported-platforms
 .. _`installation guide`: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/
 .. _`pre-commit`: https://pre-commit.com/#install
 .. _`Cookiecutter`: https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter
 Before Getting Started
 ----------------------
 .. include:: generate-project-block.rst
 Build the Stack
 ---------------
 This can take a while, especially the first time you run this particular command on your development system::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml build
 Generally, if you want to emulate production environment use ``docker-compose.production.yml`` instead. And this is true for any other actions you might need to perform: whenever a switch is required, just do it!
 Before doing any git commit, `pre-commit`_ should be installed globally on your local machine, and then::
    $ git init
    $ pre-commit install
 Failing to do so will result with a bunch of CI and Linter errors that can be avoided with pre-commit.
 Run the Stack
 -------------
 This brings up both Django and PostgreSQL. The first time it is run it might take a while to get started, but subsequent runs will occur quickly.
 Open a terminal at the project root and run the following for local development::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml up
 You can also set the environment variable ``COMPOSE_FILE`` pointing to ``docker-compose.local.yml`` like this::
    $ export COMPOSE_FILE=docker-compose.local.yml
 And then run::
    $ docker compose up
 To run in a detached (background) mode, just::
    $ docker compose up -d
 These commands don't run the docs service. In order to run docs service you can run::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.docs.yml up
 To run the docs with local services just use::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml -f docker-compose.docs.yml up
 The site should start and be accessible at http://localhost:3000 if you selected Webpack or Gulp as frontend pipeline and http://localhost:8000 otherwise.
 Execute Management Commands
 ---------------------------
 As with any shell command that we wish to run in our container, this is done using the ``docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml run --rm`` command: ::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml run --rm django python manage.py migrate
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml run --rm django python manage.py createsuperuser
 Here, ``django`` is the target service we are executing the commands against.
 Also, please note that the ``docker exec`` does not work for running management commands.
 (Optionally) Designate your Docker Development Server IP
 --------------------------------------------------------
 When ``DEBUG`` is set to ``True``, the host is validated against ``['localhost', '127.0.0.1', '[::1]']``. This is adequate when running a ``virtualenv``. For Docker, in the ``config.settings.local``, add your host development server IP to ``INTERNAL_IPS`` or ``ALLOWED_HOSTS`` if the variable exists.
 .. _envs:
 Configuring the Environment
 ---------------------------
 This is the excerpt from your project's ``docker-compose.local.yml``: ::
  # ...
  postgres:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: ./compose/production/postgres/Dockerfile
    volumes:
      - local_postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
      - local_postgres_data_backups:/backups
    env_file:
      - ./.envs/.local/.postgres
  # ...
 The most important thing for us here now is ``env_file`` section enlisting ``./.envs/.local/.postgres``. Generally, the stack's behavior is governed by a number of environment variables (`env(s)`, for short) residing in ``envs/``, for instance, this is what we generate for you: ::
    .envs
    ├── .local
    │   ├── .django
    │   └── .postgres
    └── .production
        ├── .django
        └── .postgres
 By convention, for any service ``sI`` in environment ``e`` (you know ``someenv`` is an environment when there is a ``someenv.yml`` file in the project root), given ``sI`` requires configuration, a ``.envs/.e/.sI`` `service configuration` file exists.
 Consider the aforementioned ``.envs/.local/.postgres``: ::
    # PostgreSQL
    # ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    POSTGRES_HOST=postgres
    POSTGRES_DB=<your project slug>
    POSTGRES_USER=XgOWtQtJecsAbaIyslwGvFvPawftNaqO
    POSTGRES_PASSWORD=jSljDz4whHuwO3aJIgVBrqEml5Ycbghorep4uVJ4xjDYQu0LfuTZdctj7y0YcCLu
 The three envs we are presented with here are ``POSTGRES_DB``, ``POSTGRES_USER``, and ``POSTGRES_PASSWORD`` (by the way, their values have also been generated for you). You might have figured out already where these definitions will end up; it's all the same with ``django`` service container envs.
 One final touch: should you ever need to merge ``.envs/.production/*`` in a single ``.env`` run the ``merge_production_dotenvs_in_dotenv.py``: ::
    $ python merge_production_dotenvs_in_dotenv.py
 The ``.env`` file will then be created, with all your production envs residing beside each other.
 Tips & Tricks
 -------------
 Activate a Docker Machine
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 This tells our computer that all future commands are specifically for the dev1 machine. Using the ``eval`` command we can switch machines as needed.::
    $ eval "$(docker-machine env dev1)"
 Add 3rd party python packages
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 To install a new 3rd party python package, you cannot use ``pip install <package_name>``, that would only add the package to the container. The container is ephemeral, so that new library won't be persisted if you run another container. Instead, you should modify the Docker image:
 You have to modify the relevant requirement file: base, local or production by adding: ::
    <package_name>==<package_version>
 To get this change picked up, you'll need to rebuild the image(s) and restart the running container: ::
    docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml build
    docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml up
 Debugging
 ~~~~~~~~~
 ipdb
 """""
 If you are using the following within your code to debug: ::
    import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace()
 Then you may need to run the following for it to work as desired: ::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml run --rm --service-ports django
 django-debug-toolbar
 """"""""""""""""""""
 In order for ``django-debug-toolbar`` to work designate your Docker Machine IP with ``INTERNAL_IPS`` in ``local.py``.
 docker
 """"""
 The ``container_name`` from the yml file can be used to check on containers with docker commands, for example: ::
    $ docker logs <project_slug>_local_celeryworker
    $ docker top <project_slug>_local_celeryworker
 Notice that the ``container_name`` is generated dynamically using your project slug as a prefix
 Mailpit
 ~~~~~~~
 When developing locally you can go with Mailpit_ for email testing provided ``use_mailpit`` was set to ``y`` on setup. To proceed,
 #. make sure ``<project_slug>_local_mailpit`` container is up and running;
 #. open up ``http://127.0.0.1:8025``.
 .. _Mailpit: https://github.com/axllent/mailpit/
 .. _`CeleryTasks`:
 Celery tasks in local development
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 When not using docker Celery tasks are set to run in Eager mode, so that a full stack is not needed. When using docker the task scheduler will be used by default.
 If you need tasks to be executed on the main thread during development set ``CELERY_TASK_ALWAYS_EAGER = True`` in ``config/settings/local.py``.
 Possible uses could be for testing, or ease of profiling with DJDT.
 .. _`CeleryFlower`:
 Celery Flower
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 `Flower`_ is a "real-time monitor and web admin for Celery distributed task queue".
 Prerequisites:
 * ``use_docker`` was set to ``y`` on project initialization;
 * ``use_celery`` was set to ``y`` on project initialization.
 By default, it's enabled both in local and production environments (``docker-compose.local.yml`` and ``docker-compose.production.yml`` Docker Compose configs, respectively) through a ``flower`` service. For added security, ``flower`` requires its clients to provide authentication credentials specified as the corresponding environments' ``.envs/.local/.django`` and ``.envs/.production/.django`` ``CELERY_FLOWER_USER`` and ``CELERY_FLOWER_PASSWORD`` environment variables. Check out ``localhost:5555`` and see for yourself.
 .. _`Flower`: https://github.com/mher/flower
 Using Webpack or Gulp
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 If you've opted for Gulp or Webpack as front-end pipeline, the project comes configured with `Sass`_ compilation and `live reloading`_. As you change your Sass/JS source files, the task runner will automatically rebuild the corresponding CSS and JS assets and reload them in your browser without refreshing the page.
 The stack comes with a dedicated node service to build the static assets, watch for changes and proxy requests to the Django app with live reloading scripts injected in the response. For everything to work smoothly, you need to access the application at the port served by the node service, which is http://localhost:3000 by default.
 .. _Sass: https://sass-lang.com/
 .. _live reloading: https://browsersync.io
 Using Just for Docker Commands
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 We have included a ``justfile`` to simplify the use of frequent Docker commands for local development.
 .. warning::
    Currently, "Just" does not reliably handle signals or forward them to its subprocesses. As a result,
    pressing CTRL+C (or sending other signals like SIGTERM, SIGINT, or SIGHUP) may only interrupt
    "Just" itself rather than its subprocesses.
    For more information, see `this GitHub issue <https://github.com/casey/just/issues/2473>`_.
 First, install Just using one of the methods described in the `official documentation <https://just.systems/man/en/packages.html>`_.
 Here are the available commands:
 - ``just build``
  Builds the Python image using the local Docker Compose file.
 - ``just up``
  Starts the containers in detached mode and removes orphaned containers.
 - ``just down``
  Stops the running containers.
 - ``just prune``
  Stops and removes containers along with their volumes. You can optionally pass an argument with the service name to prune a single container.
 - ``just logs``
  Shows container logs. You can optionally pass an argument with the service name to view logs for a specific service.
 - ``just manage <command>``
  Runs Django management commands within the container. Replace ``<command>`` with any valid Django management command, such as ``migrate``, ``createsuperuser``, or ``shell``.
 (Optionally) Developing locally with HTTPS
 ------------------------------------------
 Nginx
 ~~~~~
 If you want to add some sort of social authentication with a OAuth provider such as Facebook, securing your communication to the local development environment will be necessary. These providers usually require that you use an HTTPS URL for the OAuth redirect URL for the Facebook login to work appropriately.
 Here is a link to an article on `how to add HTTPS using Nginx`_ to your local docker installation. This also includes how to serve files from the ``media`` location, in the event that you are want to serve user-uploaded content.
 .. _`how to add HTTPS using Nginx`: https://afroshok.com/cookiecutter-https
 Webpack
 ~~~~~~~
 If you are using Webpack, first install `mkcert`_. It is a simple by design tool that hides all the arcane knowledge required to generate valid TLS certificates. It works for any hostname or IP, including localhost. It supports macOS, Linux, and Windows, and Firefox, Chrome and Java. It even works on mobile devices with a couple manual steps. See https://blog.filippo.io/mkcert-valid-https-certificates-for-localhost/
 .. _`mkcert`:  https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert/blob/master/README.md#supported-root-stores
 These are the places that you should configure to secure your local environment. Take the certificates that you generated and place them in a folder called ``certs`` in the project's root folder. Configure an ``nginx`` reverse-proxy server as a ``service`` in the ``docker-compose.local.yml``. This makes sure that it does not interfere with our ``traefik`` configuration that is reserved for production environments.
 Assuming that you registered your local hostname as ``my-dev-env.local``, the certificates you will put in the folder should have the names ``my-dev-env.local.crt`` and ``my-dev-env.local.key``.
 1. Add the ``nginx-proxy`` service to the ``docker-compose.local.yml``. ::
    nginx-proxy:
      image: jwilder/nginx-proxy:alpine
      container_name: nginx-proxy
      ports:
        - "80:80"
        - "443:443"
      volumes:
        - /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro
        - ./certs:/etc/nginx/certs
      restart: always
      depends_on:
        - node
      environment:
        - VIRTUAL_HOST=my-dev-env.local
        - VIRTUAL_PORT=3000
 2. Add the local secure domain to the ``config/settings/local.py``. You should allow the new hostname ::
    ALLOWED_HOSTS = ["localhost", "0.0.0.0", "127.0.0.1", "my-dev-env.local"]
 3. Add the following configuration to the ``devServer`` section of ``webpack/dev.config.js`` ::
    client: {
      webSocketURL: 'auto://0.0.0.0:0/ws', // note the `:0` after `0.0.0.0`
    },
 Rebuild your ``docker`` application. ::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml up -d --build
 Go to your browser and type in your URL bar ``https://my-dev-env.local``.
 For more on this configuration, see `https with nginx`_.

 Getting Up and Running Locally
 ==============================
 .. index:: pip, virtualenv, PostgreSQL
 Setting Up Development Environment
 ----------------------------------
 Make sure to have the following on your host:
 * Python 3.12
 * PostgreSQL_.
 * Redis_, if using Celery
 * Cookiecutter_
 First things first.
 #. Create a virtualenv: ::
    $ python3.12 -m venv <virtual env path>
 #. Activate the virtualenv you have just created: ::
    $ source <virtual env path>/bin/activate
 #. .. include:: generate-project-block.rst
 #. Install development requirements: ::
    $ cd <what you have entered as the project_slug at setup stage>
    $ pip install -r requirements/local.txt
    $ git init # A git repo is required for pre-commit to install
    $ pre-commit install
   .. note::
       the `pre-commit` hook exists in the generated project as default.
       For the details of `pre-commit`, follow the `pre-commit`_ site.
 #. Create a new PostgreSQL database using createdb_: ::
    $ createdb --username=postgres <project_slug>
   ``project_slug`` is what you have entered as the project_slug at the setup stage.
   .. note::
       if this is the first time a database is created on your machine you might need an
       `initial PostgreSQL set up`_ to allow local connections & set a password for
       the ``postgres`` user. The `postgres documentation`_ explains the syntax of the config file
       that you need to change.
 #. Set the environment variables for your database(s): ::
    $ export DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/<DB name given to createdb>
   .. note::
       Check out the :ref:`settings` page for a comprehensive list of the environments variables.
   .. seealso::
       To help setting up your environment variables, you have a few options:
       * create an ``.env`` file in the root of your project and define all the variables you need in it.
         Then you just need to have ``DJANGO_READ_DOT_ENV_FILE=True`` in your machine and all the variables
         will be read.
       * Use a local environment manager like `direnv`_
 #. Apply migrations: ::
    $ python manage.py migrate
 #. If you're running synchronously, see the application being served through Django development server: ::
    $ python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
   or if you're running asynchronously: ::
    $ uvicorn config.asgi:application --host 0.0.0.0 --reload --reload-include '*.html'

 Creating Your First Django App
 -------------------------------
 After setting up your environment, you're ready to add your first app. This project uses the setup from "Two Scoops of Django" with a two-tier layout:
 - **Top Level Repository Root** has config files, documentation, `manage.py`, and more.
 - **Second Level Django Project Root** is where your Django apps live.
 - **Second Level Configuration Root** holds settings and URL configurations.
 The project layout looks something like this: ::
    <repository_root>/
    ├── config/
    │   ├── settings/
    │   │   ├── __init__.py
    │   │   ├── base.py
    │   │   ├── local.py
    │   │   └── production.py
    │   ├── urls.py
    │   └── wsgi.py
    ├── <django_project_root>/
    │   ├── <name_of_the_app>/
    │   │   ├── migrations/
    │   │   ├── admin.py
    │   │   ├── apps.py
    │   │   ├── models.py
    │   │   ├── tests.py
    │   │   └── views.py
    │   ├── __init__.py
    │   └── ...
    ├── requirements/
    │   ├── base.txt
    │   ├── local.txt
    │   └── production.txt
    ├── manage.py
    ├── README.md
    └── ...
 Following this structured approach, here's how to add a new app:
 #. **Create the app** using Django's ``startapp`` command, replacing ``<name-of-the-app>`` with your desired app name: ::
    $ python manage.py startapp <name-of-the-app>
 #. **Move the app** to the Django Project Root, maintaining the project's two-tier structure: ::
    $ mv <name-of-the-app> <django_project_root>/
 #. **Edit the app's apps.py** change ``name = '<name-of-the-app>'`` to ``name = '<django_project_root>.<name-of-the-app>'``.
 #. **Register the new app** by adding it to the ``LOCAL_APPS`` list in ``config/settings/base.py``, integrating it as an official component of your project.
 Setup Email Backend
 -------------------
 Mailpit
 ~~~~~~~
 .. note:: In order for the project to support Mailpit_ it must have been bootstrapped with ``use_mailpit`` set to ``y``.
 Mailpit is used to receive emails during development, it is written in Go and has no external dependencies.
 For instance, one of the packages we depend upon, ``django-allauth`` sends verification emails to new users signing up as well as to the existing ones who have not yet verified themselves.
 #. `Download the latest Mailpit release`_ for your OS.
 #. Copy the binary file to the project root.
 #. Make it executable: ::
    $ chmod +x mailpit
 #. Spin up another terminal window and start it there: ::
    ./mailpit
 #. Check out `<http://127.0.0.1:8025/>`_ to see how it goes.
 Now you have your own mail server running locally, ready to receive whatever you send it.
 .. _`Download the latest Mailpit release`: https://github.com/axllent/mailpit
 Console
 ~~~~~~~
 .. note:: If you have generated your project with ``use_mailpit`` set to ``n`` this will be a default setup.
 Alternatively, deliver emails over console via ``EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'``.
 In production, we have Mailgun_ configured to have your back!
 .. _Mailgun: https://www.mailgun.com/
 Celery
 ------
 If the project is configured to use Celery as a task scheduler then, by default, tasks are set to run on the main thread when developing locally instead of getting sent to a broker. However, if you have Redis setup on your local machine, you can set the following in ``config/settings/local.py``::
    CELERY_TASK_ALWAYS_EAGER = False
 Next, make sure `redis-server` is installed (per the `Getting started with Redis`_ guide) and run the server in one terminal::
    $ redis-server
 Start the Celery worker by running the following command in another terminal::
    $ celery -A config.celery_app worker --loglevel=info
 That Celery worker should be running whenever your app is running, typically as a background process,
 so that it can pick up any tasks that get queued. Learn more from the `Celery Workers Guide`_.
 The project comes with a simple task for manual testing purposes, inside `<project_slug>/users/tasks.py`. To queue that task locally, start the Django shell, import the task, and call `delay()` on it::
    $ python manage.py shell
    >> from <project_slug>.users.tasks import get_users_count
    >> get_users_count.delay()
 You can also use Django admin to queue up tasks, thanks to the `django-celerybeat`_ package.

 .. _Celery Workers Guide: https://docs.celeryq.dev/en/stable/userguide/workers.html
 .. _django-celerybeat: https://django-celery-beat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
 .. _bare-metal-webpack-gulp:
 Using Webpack or Gulp
 ---------------------
 If you've opted for Gulp or Webpack as front-end pipeline, the project comes configured with `Sass`_ compilation and `live reloading`_. As you change your Sass/JS source files, the task runner will automatically rebuild the corresponding CSS and JS assets and reload them in your browser without refreshing the page.
 #. Make sure that `Node.js`_ v18 is installed on your machine.
 #. In the project root, install the JS dependencies with::
    $ npm install
 #. Now - with your virtualenv activated - start the application by running::
    $ npm run dev
   This will start 2 processes in parallel: the static assets build loop on one side, and the Django server on the other.
 #. Access your application at the address of the ``node`` service in order to see your correct styles. This is http://localhost:3000 by default.
   .. note:: Do NOT access the application using the Django port (8000 by default), as it will result in broken styles and 404s when accessing static assets.

 Linters
 =======
 .. index:: linters
 ruff
 ------
 Ruff is a Python linter and code formatter, written in Rust.
 It is a aggregation of flake8, pylint, pyupgrade and many more.
 Ruff comes with a linter (``ruff check``) and a formatter (``ruff format``).
 The linter is a wrapper around flake8, pylint, and other linters,
 and the formatter is a wrapper around black, isort, and other formatters.
 To run ruff without modifying your files: ::
    $ ruff format --diff .
    $ ruff check .
 Ruff is capable of fixing most of the problems it encounters.
 Be sure you commit first before running `ruff` so you can restore to a savepoint (and amend afterwards to prevent a double commit. : ::
    $ ruff format  .
    $ ruff check --fix .
    # be careful with the --unsafe-fixes option, it can break your code
    $ ruff check --fix --unsafe-fixes  .
 The config for ruff is located in pyproject.toml.
 On of the most important option is `tool.ruff.lint.select`.
 `select` determines which linters are run. In example, `DJ <https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/rules/#flake8-django-dj>`_ refers to flake8-django.
 For a full list of available linters, see `https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/rules/ <https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/rules/>`_

 # Maintainer guide
 This document is intended for maintainers of the template.
 ## Automated updates
 We use 2 separate services to keep our dependencies up-to-date:
 - Dependabot, which manages updates of Python deps of the template, GitHub actions, npm packages and Docker images.
 - PyUp, which manages the Python deps for the generated project.
 We don't use Dependabot for the generated project deps because our requirements files are templated, and Dependabot fails to parse them. PyUp is -AFAIK- the only service out there that supports having Jinja tags in the requirements file.
 Updates for the template should be labelled as `project infrastructure` while the ones about the generated project should be labelled as `update`. This is use to work in conjunction with our changelog script (see later).
 ## Automation scripts
 We have a few workflows which have been automated over time. They usually run using GitHub actions and might need a few small manual actions to work nicely. Some have a few limitations which we should document here.
 ### CI
 `ci.yml`
 The CI workflow tries to cover 2 main aspects of the template:
 - Check all combinations to make sure that valid files are generated with no major linting issues. Issues which are fixed by an auto-formatter after generation aren't considered major, and only aim for best effort. This is under the `test` job.
 - Run more in-depth tests on a few combinations, by installing dependencies, running type checker and the test suite of the generated project. We try to cover docker (`docker` job) and non-docker (`bare` job) setups.
 We also run the deployment checks, but we don't do much more beyond that for testing the production setup.
 ### Django issue checker
 `django-issue-checker.yml`
 This workflow runs daily, on schedule, and checks if there is a new major version of Django (not in the pure SemVer sense) released that we are not running, and list our dependencies compatibility.
 For example, at time of writing, we use Django 4.2, but the latest version of Django is 5.0, so the workflow created a ["Django 5.0" issue](https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter-django/issues/4724) in GitHub, with a compatibility table and keeps it up to date every day.
 #### Limitations
 Here are a few current and past limitations of the script
 - When a new dependency is added to the template, the script fails to update an existing issue
 - Not sure what happens when a deps is removed
 - ~~Unable to parse classifiers without minor version~~
 - ~~Creates an issue even if we are on the latest version~~
 ### Issue manager
 `issue-manager.yml`
 A workflow that uses [Sebastian Ramirez' issue-manager](https://github.com/tiangolo/issue-manager) to help us automate issue management. The tag line from the repo explains it well:
 > Automatically close issues or Pull Requests that have a label, after a custom delay, if no one replies back.
 It runs on a schedule as well as when some actions are taken on issues and pull requests.
 We wait 10 days before closing issues, and we have a few customised reasons, which are configured in the workflow itself. The config should be fairly self-explanatory.
 ### Pre-commit auto-update
 `pre-commit-autoupdate.yml`
 Run daily, to do `pre-commit autoupdate` on the template as well as the generated project, and opens a pull request with the changes.
 #### Limitations
 - The PR is open as GitHub action which means that CI does NOT run. The documentation for create-pull-request action [explains why](https://github.com/peter-evans/create-pull-request/blob/main/docs/concepts-guidelines.md#triggering-further-workflow-runs).
 - Some hooks are also installed as local dependencies (via `requirements/local.txt`), but these are updated separately via PyUP.
 ### Update changelog
 `update-changelog.yml`
 Run daily at 2AM to update our changelog and create a GitHub release. This runs a custom script which:
 - List all pull requests merged the day before
 - The release name is calendar based, so `YYYY.MM.DD`
 - For each PR:
  - Get the PR title to summarize the change
  - Look at the PR labels to classify it in a section of the release notes:
    - anything labelled `project infrastructure` is excluded
    - label `update` goes in section "Updated"
    - label `bug` goes in section "Fixed"
    - label `docs` goes in section "Documentation"
    - Default to section "Changed"
 With that in mind, when merging changes, it's a good idea to set the labels and rename the PR title to give a good summary of the change, in the context of the changelog.
 #### Limitations
 - Dependabot updates for npm & Docker have a verbose title, try to rename them to be more readable: `Bump webpack-dev-server from 4.15.1 to 5.0.2 in /{{cookiecutter.project_slug}}` -> `Bump webpack-dev-server to 5.0.2`
 - ~~Dependencies updates for the template repo (tox, cookiecutter, etc...) don't need to appear in changelog, and need to be labelled as `project infrastructure` manually. By default, they come from PyUp labelled as `update`.~~
 ### Update contributors
 `update-contributors.yml`
 Runs on each push to master branch. List the 5 most recently merged pull requests and extract their author. If any of the authors is a new one, updates the `.github/contributors.json`, regenerate the `CONTRIBUTORS.md` from it, and push back the changes to master.

 Webpack without Whitenoise limitation
 -------------------------------------
 If you opt for Webpack without Whitenoise, Webpack needs to know the static URL at build time, when running ``docker compose build`` (See ``webpack/prod.config.js``). Depending on your setup, this URL may come from the following environment variables:
 - ``AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME``
 - ``DJANGO_AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN``
 - ``DJANGO_GCP_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME``
 - ``DJANGO_AZURE_CONTAINER_NAME``
 The Django settings are getting these values at runtime via the ``.envs/.production/.django`` file , but Docker does not read this file at build time, it only look for a ``.env`` in the root of the project. Failing to pass the values correctly will result in a page without CSS styles nor javascript.
 To solve this, you can either:
 1. merge all the env files into ``.env`` by running::
     merge_production_dotenvs_in_dotenv.py
 2. create a ``.env`` file in the root of the project with just variables you need. You'll need to also define them in ``.envs/.production/.django`` (hence duplicating them).
 3. set these variables when running the build command::
     DJANGO_AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN=example.com docker compose -f docker-compose.production.yml build``.
 None of these options are ideal, we're open to suggestions on how to improve this. If you think you have one, please open an issue or a pull request.

 Getting Up and Running Locally With Docker
 ==========================================
 .. index:: Docker
 The steps below will get you up and running with a local development environment.
 All of these commands assume you are in the root of your generated project.
 .. note::
    If you're new to Docker, please be aware that some resources are cached system-wide
    and might reappear if you generate a project multiple times with the same name (e.g.
    :ref:`this issue with Postgres <docker-postgres-auth-failed>`).
 Prerequisites
 -------------
 * Docker; if you don't have it yet, follow the `installation instructions`_;
 * Docker Compose; refer to the official documentation for the `installation guide`_.
 * Pre-commit; refer to the official documentation for the `pre-commit`_.
 .. _`installation instructions`: https://docs.docker.com/install/#supported-platforms
 .. _`installation guide`: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/
 .. _`pre-commit`: https://pre-commit.com/#install
 Build the Stack
 ---------------
 This can take a while, especially the first time you run this particular command on your development system::
    $ docker-compose -f local.yml build
 Generally, if you want to emulate production environment use ``production.yml`` instead. And this is true for any other actions you might need to perform: whenever a switch is required, just do it!
 Before doing any git commit, `pre-commit`_ should be installed globally on your local machine, and then::
    $ git init
    $ pre-commit install
 Failing to do so will result with a bunch of CI and Linter errors that can be avoided with pre-commit.
 Run the Stack
 -------------
 This brings up both Django and PostgreSQL. The first time it is run it might take a while to get started, but subsequent runs will occur quickly.
 Open a terminal at the project root and run the following for local development::
    $ docker-compose -f local.yml up
 You can also set the environment variable ``COMPOSE_FILE`` pointing to ``local.yml`` like this::
    $ export COMPOSE_FILE=local.yml
 And then run::
    $ docker-compose up
 To run in a detached (background) mode, just::
    $ docker-compose up -d
 Execute Management Commands
 ---------------------------
 As with any shell command that we wish to run in our container, this is done using the ``docker-compose -f local.yml run --rm`` command: ::
    $ docker-compose -f local.yml run --rm django python manage.py migrate
    $ docker-compose -f local.yml run --rm django python manage.py createsuperuser
 Here, ``django`` is the target service we are executing the commands against.
 (Optionally) Designate your Docker Development Server IP
 --------------------------------------------------------
 When ``DEBUG`` is set to ``True``, the host is validated against ``['localhost', '127.0.0.1', '[::1]']``. This is adequate when running a ``virtualenv``. For Docker, in the ``config.settings.local``, add your host development server IP to ``INTERNAL_IPS`` or ``ALLOWED_HOSTS`` if the variable exists.
 .. _envs:
 Configuring the Environment
 ---------------------------
 This is the excerpt from your project's ``local.yml``: ::
  # ...
  postgres:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: ./compose/production/postgres/Dockerfile
    volumes:
      - local_postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
      - local_postgres_data_backups:/backups
    env_file:
      - ./.envs/.local/.postgres
  # ...
 The most important thing for us here now is ``env_file`` section enlisting ``./.envs/.local/.postgres``. Generally, the stack's behavior is governed by a number of environment variables (`env(s)`, for short) residing in ``envs/``, for instance, this is what we generate for you: ::
    .envs
    ├── .local
    │   ├── .django
    │   └── .postgres
    └── .production
        ├── .django
        └── .postgres
 By convention, for any service ``sI`` in environment ``e`` (you know ``someenv`` is an environment when there is a ``someenv.yml`` file in the project root), given ``sI`` requires configuration, a ``.envs/.e/.sI`` `service configuration` file exists.
 Consider the aforementioned ``.envs/.local/.postgres``: ::
    # PostgreSQL
    # ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    POSTGRES_HOST=postgres
    POSTGRES_DB=<your project slug>
    POSTGRES_USER=XgOWtQtJecsAbaIyslwGvFvPawftNaqO
    POSTGRES_PASSWORD=jSljDz4whHuwO3aJIgVBrqEml5Ycbghorep4uVJ4xjDYQu0LfuTZdctj7y0YcCLu
 The three envs we are presented with here are ``POSTGRES_DB``, ``POSTGRES_USER``, and ``POSTGRES_PASSWORD`` (by the way, their values have also been generated for you). You might have figured out already where these definitions will end up; it's all the same with ``django`` service container envs.
 One final touch: should you ever need to merge ``.envs/.production/*`` in a single ``.env`` run the ``merge_production_dotenvs_in_dotenv.py``: ::
    $ python merge_production_dotenvs_in_dotenv.py
 The ``.env`` file will then be created, with all your production envs residing beside each other.
 Tips & Tricks
 -------------
 Activate a Docker Machine
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 This tells our computer that all future commands are specifically for the dev1 machine. Using the ``eval`` command we can switch machines as needed.::
    $ eval "$(docker-machine env dev1)"
 Debugging
 ~~~~~~~~~
 ipdb
 """""
 If you are using the following within your code to debug: ::
    import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace()
 Then you may need to run the following for it to work as desired: ::
    $ docker-compose -f local.yml run --rm --service-ports django
 django-debug-toolbar
 """"""""""""""""""""
 In order for ``django-debug-toolbar`` to work designate your Docker Machine IP with ``INTERNAL_IPS`` in ``local.py``.
 docker
 """"""
 The ``container_name`` from the yml file can be used to check on containers with docker commands, for example: ::
    $ docker logs <project_slug>_local_celeryworker
    $ docker top <project_slug>_local_celeryworker
 Notice that the ``container_name`` is generated dynamically using your project slug as a prefix
 Mailhog
 ~~~~~~~
 When developing locally you can go with MailHog_ for email testing provided ``use_mailhog`` was set to ``y`` on setup. To proceed,
 #. make sure ``<project_slug>_local_mailhog`` container is up and running;
 #. open up ``http://127.0.0.1:8025``.
 .. _Mailhog: https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog/
 .. _`CeleryTasks`:
 Celery tasks in local development
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 When not using docker Celery tasks are set to run in Eager mode, so that a full stack is not needed. When using docker the task scheduler will be used by default.
 If you need tasks to be executed on the main thread during development set ``CELERY_TASK_ALWAYS_EAGER = True`` in ``config/settings/local.py``.
 Possible uses could be for testing, or ease of profiling with DJDT.
 .. _`CeleryFlower`:
 Celery Flower
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 `Flower`_ is a "real-time monitor and web admin for Celery distributed task queue".
 Prerequisites:
 * ``use_docker`` was set to ``y`` on project initialization;
 * ``use_celery`` was set to ``y`` on project initialization.
 By default, it's enabled both in local and production environments (``local.yml`` and ``production.yml`` Docker Compose configs, respectively) through a ``flower`` service. For added security, ``flower`` requires its clients to provide authentication credentials specified as the corresponding environments' ``.envs/.local/.django`` and ``.envs/.production/.django`` ``CELERY_FLOWER_USER`` and ``CELERY_FLOWER_PASSWORD`` environment variables. Check out ``localhost:5555`` and see for yourself.

 Developing locally with HTTPS
 -----------------------------
 Increasingly it is becoming necessary to develop software in a secure environment in order that there are very few changes when deploying to production. Recently Facebook changed their policies for apps/sites that use Facebook login which requires the use of an HTTPS URL for the OAuth redirect URL. So if you want to use the ``users`` application with a OAuth provider such as Facebook, securing your communication to the local development environment will be necessary.
 In order to create a secure environment, we need to have a trusted SSL certificate installed in our Docker application.
 #.  **Let's Encrypt**
    The official line from Let’s Encrypt is:
    [For local development section] ... The best option: Generate your own certificate, either self-signed or signed by a local root, and trust it in your operating system’s trust store. Then use that certificate in your local web server. See below for details.
    See `letsencrypt.org - certificates-for-localhost`_
    .. _`letsencrypt.org - certificates-for-localhost`: https://letsencrypt.org/docs/certificates-for-localhost/
 #.  **mkcert: Valid Https Certificates For Localhost**
    `mkcert`_ is a simple by design tool that hides all the arcane knowledge required to generate valid TLS certificates. It works for any hostname or IP, including localhost. It supports macOS, Linux, and Windows, and Firefox, Chrome and Java. It even works on mobile devices with a couple manual steps.
    See https://blog.filippo.io/mkcert-valid-https-certificates-for-localhost/
    .. _`mkcert`:  https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert/blob/master/README.md#supported-root-stores
 After installing a trusted TLS certificate, configure your docker installation. We are going to configure an ``nginx`` reverse-proxy server. This makes sure that it does not interfere with our ``traefik`` configuration that is reserved for production environments.
 These are the places that you should configure to secure your local environment.
 certs
 ~~~~~
 Take the certificates that you generated and place them in a folder called ``certs`` in the project's root folder. Assuming that you registered your local hostname as ``my-dev-env.local``, the certificates you will put in the folder should have the names ``my-dev-env.local.crt`` and ``my-dev-env.local.key``.
 local.yml
 ~~~~~~~~~
 #. Add the ``nginx-proxy`` service. ::
    ...
    nginx-proxy:
      image: jwilder/nginx-proxy:alpine
      container_name: nginx-proxy
      ports:
        - "80:80"
        - "443:443"
      volumes:
        - /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro
        - ./certs:/etc/nginx/certs
      restart: always
      depends_on:
        - django
    ...
 #. Link the ``nginx-proxy`` to ``django`` through environment variables.
   ``django`` already has an ``.env`` file connected to it. Add the following variables. You should do this especially if you are working with a team and you want to keep your local environment details to yourself.
   ::
      # HTTPS
      # ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      VIRTUAL_HOST=my-dev-env.local
      VIRTUAL_PORT=8000
   The services run behind the reverse proxy.
 config/settings/local.py
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 You should allow the new hostname. ::
  ALLOWED_HOSTS = ["localhost", "0.0.0.0", "127.0.0.1", "my-dev-env.local"]
 Rebuild your ``docker`` application. ::
  $ docker-compose -f local.yml up -d --build
 Go to your browser and type in your URL bar ``https://my-dev-env.local``
 See `https with nginx`_ for more information on this configuration.
  .. _`https with nginx`: https://codewithhugo.com/docker-compose-local-https/
 .gitignore
 ~~~~~~~~~~
 Add ``certs/*`` to the ``.gitignore`` file. This allows the folder to be included in the repo but its contents to be ignored.
 *This configuration is for local development environments only. Do not use this for production since you might expose your local* ``rootCA-key.pem``.

 Getting Up and Running Locally
 ==============================
 .. index:: pip, virtualenv, PostgreSQL
 Setting Up Development Environment
 ----------------------------------
 Make sure to have the following on your host:
 * Python 3.9
 * PostgreSQL_.
 * Redis_, if using Celery
 * Cookiecutter_
 First things first.
 #. Create a virtualenv: ::
    $ python3.9 -m venv <virtual env path>
 #. Activate the virtualenv you have just created: ::
    $ source <virtual env path>/bin/activate
 #. Install cookiecutter-django: ::
    $ cookiecutter gh:cookiecutter/cookiecutter-django
 #. Install development requirements: ::
    $ cd <what you have entered as the project_slug at setup stage>
    $ pip install -r requirements/local.txt
    $ git init # A git repo is required for pre-commit to install
    $ pre-commit install
   .. note::
       the `pre-commit` hook exists in the generated project as default.
       For the details of `pre-commit`, follow the `pre-commit`_ site.
 #. Create a new PostgreSQL database using createdb_: ::
    $ createdb --username=postgres <project_slug>
   ``project_slug`` is what you have entered as the project_slug at the setup stage.
   .. note::
       if this is the first time a database is created on your machine you might need an
       `initial PostgreSQL set up`_ to allow local connections & set a password for
       the ``postgres`` user. The `postgres documentation`_ explains the syntax of the config file
       that you need to change.
 #. Set the environment variables for your database(s): ::
    $ export DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/<DB name given to createdb>
    # Optional: set broker URL if using Celery
    $ export CELERY_BROKER_URL=redis://localhost:6379/0
   .. note::
       Check out the :ref:`settings` page for a comprehensive list of the environments variables.
   .. seealso::
       To help setting up your environment variables, you have a few options:
       * create an ``.env`` file in the root of your project and define all the variables you need in it.
         Then you just need to have ``DJANGO_READ_DOT_ENV_FILE=True`` in your machine and all the variables
         will be read.
       * Use a local environment manager like `direnv`_
 #. Apply migrations: ::
    $ python manage.py migrate
 #. If you're running synchronously, see the application being served through Django development server: ::
    $ python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
 or if you're running asynchronously: ::
    $ uvicorn config.asgi:application --host 0.0.0.0 --reload

 Setup Email Backend
 -------------------
 MailHog
 ~~~~~~~
 .. note:: In order for the project to support MailHog_ it must have been bootstrapped with ``use_mailhog`` set to ``y``.
 MailHog is used to receive emails during development, it is written in Go and has no external dependencies.
 For instance, one of the packages we depend upon, ``django-allauth`` sends verification emails to new users signing up as well as to the existing ones who have not yet verified themselves.
 #. `Download the latest MailHog release`_ for your OS.
 #. Rename the build to ``MailHog``.
 #. Copy the file to the project root.
 #. Make it executable: ::
    $ chmod +x MailHog
 #. Spin up another terminal window and start it there: ::
    ./MailHog
 #. Check out `<http://127.0.0.1:8025/>`_ to see how it goes.
 Now you have your own mail server running locally, ready to receive whatever you send it.
 .. _`Download the latest MailHog release`: https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog
 Console
 ~~~~~~~
 .. note:: If you have generated your project with ``use_mailhog`` set to ``n`` this will be a default setup.
 Alternatively, deliver emails over console via ``EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'``.
 In production, we have Mailgun_ configured to have your back!
 .. _Mailgun: https://www.mailgun.com/
 Celery
 ------
 If the project is configured to use Celery as a task scheduler then by default tasks are set to run on the main thread
 when developing locally. If you have the appropriate setup on your local machine then set the following
 in ``config/settings/local.py``::
    CELERY_TASK_ALWAYS_EAGER = False
 To run Celery locally, make sure redis-server is installed (instructions are available at https://redis.io/topics/quickstart), run the server in one terminal with `redis-server`, and then start celery in another terminal with the following command::
    celery -A config.celery_app worker --loglevel=info
 Sass Compilation & Live Reloading
 ---------------------------------
 If you've opted for Gulp as front-end pipeline, the project comes configured with `Sass`_ compilation and `live reloading`_. As you change you Sass/JS source files, the task runner will automatically rebuild the corresponding CSS and JS assets and reload them in your browser without refreshing the page.
 #. Make sure that `Node.js`_ v16 is installed on your machine.
 #. In the project root, install the JS dependencies with::
    $ npm install
 #. Now - with your virtualenv activated - start the application by running::
    $ npm run dev
   The app will now run with live reloading enabled, applying front-end changes dynamically.
 .. note:: The task will start 2 processes in parallel: the static assets build loop on one side, and the Django server on the other. You do NOT need to run Django as your would normally with ``manage.py runserver``.

 Upgrading PostgreSQL
 ----------------------------------
 Upgrading PostgreSQL in your project requires a series of carefully executed steps. Start by halting all containers, excluding the postgres container. Following this, create a backup and proceed to remove the outdated data volume. ::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml down
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml up -d postgres
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml run --rm postgres backup
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml down
    $ docker volume rm my_project_postgres_data
 .. note:: Neglecting to remove the old data volume may lead to issues, such as the new postgres container failing to start with errors like ``FATAL:  database files are incompatible with server``, and ``could not translate host name "postgres" to address: Name or service not known``.
 To complete the upgrade, update the PostgreSQL version in the corresponding Dockerfile (e.g. ``compose/production/postgres/Dockerfile``) and build a new version of PostgreSQL. ::
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml build postgres
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml up -d postgres
    $ docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml run --rm postgres restore backup_2018_03_13T09_05_07.sql.gz
