{{cookiecutter.project_name}} 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 '{{cookiecutter.project_name}}' environment variables to their Django setting:

Getting up and running
----------------------

Basics
^^^^^^

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

.. _virtualenv: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/

Create a local PostgreSQL database::

    $ createdb {{ cookiecutter.repo_name }}

Run ``migrate`` on your new database::

    $ python manage.py migrate

You can now run the ``runserver_plus`` command::

    $ python manage.py runserver_plus

Open up your browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ to see the site running locally.

Setting Up Your Users
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To create a **normal user account**, just go to Sign Up and fill out the form. Once you submit it, you'll see a "Verify Your E-mail Address" page. Go to your console to see a simulated email verification message. Copy the link into your browser. Now the user's email should be verified and ready to go.

To create an **superuser account**, use this command::

    $ python manage.py createsuperuser

For convenience, you can keep your normal user logged in on Chrome and your superuser logged in on Firefox (or similar), so that you can see how the site behaves for both kinds of users.

Test coverage
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To run the tests, check your test coverage, and generate an HTML coverage report::

    $ coverage run manage.py test
    $ coverage html
    $ open htmlcov/index.html

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 a little bit of prep work.

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

    $ npm install

.. _nodejs: http://nodejs.org/download/

If you don't already have it, install `compass` (doesn't hurt if you run this command twice)::

    gem install compass

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`_

.. _appropriate browser extension: http://feedback.livereload.com/knowledgebase/articles/86242-how-do-i-install-and-use-the-browser-extensions-

{% if cookiecutter.use_celery == "y" %}
Celery
^^^^^^
This app comes with Celery.

To run a celery worker:

.. code-block:: bash

    cd {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}
    celery -A {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} worker -l info

Please note: For Celerys import magic to work, it is important *where* the celery commands are run. If you are in the same folder with *manage.py*, you should be right.
{% endif %}
{% if cookiecutter.use_maildump == "y" %}
Email Server
^^^^^^^^^^^^

In development, it is often nice to be able to see emails that are being sent from your application. For this purpose,
a Grunt task exists to start an instance of `maildump`_ which is a local SMTP server with an online interface.

.. _maildump: https://github.com/ThiefMaster/maildump

Make sure you have nodejs installed, and then type the following::

    $ grunt start-email-server

This will start an email server. The project is setup to deliver to the email server by default. To view messages
that are sent by your application, open your browser to http://127.0.0.1:1080

To stop the email server::

    $ grunt stop-email-server

The email server listens on 127.0.0.1:1025
{% endif %}
{% if cookiecutter.use_sentry == "y" %}
Sentry
^^^^^^

Sentry is an error logging aggregator service. You can sign up for a free account at http://getsentry.com or download and host it yourself.
The system is setup with reasonable defaults, including 404 logging and integration with the WSGI application.

You must set the DSN url in production.
{% endif %}

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:

.. code-block:: bash

    heroku create --buildpack https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-python

    heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev
    heroku pg:backups schedule --at '02:00 America/Los_Angeles' DATABASE_URL
    heroku pg:promote DATABASE_URL

    heroku addons:create heroku-redis:hobby-dev
    heroku addons:create mailgun

    heroku config:set DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=`openssl rand -base64 32`
    heroku config:set DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE='config.settings.production'

    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

    heroku config:set DJANGO_MAILGUN_SERVER_NAME=YOUR_MALGUN_SERVER
    heroku config:set DJANGO_MAILGUN_API_KEY=YOUR_MAILGUN_API_KEY
    
    heroku config:set PYTHONHASHSEED=random
    
    git push heroku master
    heroku run python manage.py migrate
    heroku run python manage.py check --deploy
    heroku run python 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.

.. code-block:: bash

    cd /var/lib/dokku/plugins
    git clone https://github.com/rlaneve/dokku-link.git link
    git clone https://github.com/luxifer/dokku-redis-plugin redis
    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.

.. code-block:: bash

    export BUILDPACK_URL=<repository>

You can then deploy by running the following commands.

..  code-block:: bash

    git remote add dokku dokku@yourservername.com:{{cookiecutter.repo_name}}
    git push dokku master
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku redis:create {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}-redis
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku redis:link {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}-redis {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku postgres:create {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}-postgres
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku postgres:link {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}-postgres {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=RANDOM_SECRET_KEY_HERE
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE='config.settings.production'
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_AWS_ID_HERE
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_HERE
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME=YOUR_AWS_S3_BUCKET_NAME_HERE
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} DJANGO_MAILGUN_API_KEY=YOUR_MAILGUN_API_KEY
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} DJANGO_MAILGUN_SERVER_NAME=YOUR_MAILGUN_SERVER
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku run {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} python manage.py migrate
    ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku run {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} python manage.py createsuperuser

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