Bornhack

Django project to power Bornhack. Features include news, villages, webshop, and more.

Development setup

Clone the repo

Clone with --recursive to include submodules:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/bornhack/bornhack-website

If you already cloned the repository, you can add the submodules like this:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Virtualenv

Create a Python 3 virtual environment and activate it:

$ virtualenv venv -p python3
$ source venv/bin/activate

System libraries

Install system dependencies (method depends on OS):

  • postgresql headers (for psycopg2):
    • Debian: libpq-dev
    • FreeBSD: databases/postgresql93-client
  • libjpeg (for pdf generation)
    • Debian: libjpeg-dev
    • FreeBSD: graphics/jpeg-turbo
  • wkhtmltopdf (also for pdf generation):
    • Debian: wkhtmltopdf
    • FreeBSD: converters/wkhtmltopdf
  • fonts
    • Debian: ?
    • FreeBSD: x11-fonts/webfonts

Python packages

Install pip packages:

(venv) $ pip install -r src/requirements/dev.txt

Postgres

You need to have a running Postgres instance (we use Postgres-specific datetime range fields). Install Postgress, and add a database bornhack (or whichever you like) with some way for the application to connect to it, for instance adding a user with a password.

You can also use Unix socket connections if you know how to. It's faster, easier and perhaps more secure.

Configuration file

Copy dev environment settings file and change settings as needed:

(venv) $ cp src/bornhack/environment_settings.py.dist.dev src/bornhack/environment_settings.py

Edit the configuration file, setting up DATABASES matching your Postgres settings.

Database

Is this a new installation? Initialize the database:

(venv) $ src/manage.py migrate

Is this for local development? Bootstrap the database with dummy data and users:

(venv) $ src/manage.py bootstrap-devsite

Done

Is this for local development? Start the Django devserver:

(venv) $ src/manage.py runserver

Otherwise start uwsgi or similar to serve the application.

Enjoy!

Notes

Add a camp

Add a new camp by running:

(venv) $ src/manage.py createcamp {camp-slug}

Then go to the admin interface to edit the camp details, adding the same slug that you just used and some current dates.

You can also specify details like:

  • A sponsors page, {camp-slug}_sponsors.html, to sponsors/templates.
  • A frontpage, {camp-slug}_camp_detail.html, to camps/templates.
  • A call for speakers page, {camp-slug}_call_for_speakers.html, to program/templates.
  • A static_src/img/{camp-slug}/logo and add two logos:
    • {camp-slug}-logo-large.png
    • {camp-slug}-logo-small.png
