========
Batucada
========

Batucada is a ground up rewrite of drumbeat.org in `Django`_.

.. _Django: http://www.djangoproject.com/

Installation
------------

To install Batucada, you must clone the repository: ::

git clone git://github.com/paulosman/batucada.git

To get started, you'll need to make sure that ``virtualenv`` and ``pip`` are installed. ::

sudo easy_install virtualenv
sudo easy_install pip

I recommend using ``virtualenvwrapper`` to manage your virtual environments. Follow the `installation instructions`_. Once installed, create your virtual environment for ``batucada`` and install the dependencies ::

cd batucada
mkvirtualenv batucada
workon batucada
pip install -r requirements/compiled.txt
pip install -r requirements/prod.txt

.. _installation instructions: http://www.doughellmann.com/docs/virtualenvwrapper/

If you are doing an update, you might find it helps to delete pyc files: ::

find . -name "*.pyc" | xargs rm

You should create a settings_local.py. Most people will be able to get away with the template provided. ::

cp settings_local.dist.py settings_local.py

Next, sync the database and run migrations. ::

python manage.py syncdb --noinput

There's a problem with real databases (read: not sqlite) where south migrations are run in an order that violates foreign key constraints. See `Bug # 623612`_ for details. Until that is fixed, you're best off running migrations in this order. ::

python manage.py migrate projects
python manage.py migrate users
python manage.py migrate activity
python manage.py migrate statuses
python manage.py migrate links
python manage.py migrate dashboard
python manage.py migrate relationships

What a pain!

.. _Bug # 623612: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623612

Finally, start the development server to take it for a spin. ::

python manage.py runserver
