geodjango
==============================

A test setup for GeoDjango

LICENSE: BSD

Settings
------------

geodjango 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 'geodjango' environment variables to their Django setting:

======================================= =========================== ============================================== ===========================================
Environment Variable Django Setting Development Default Production Default

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

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/

You can now run the usual Django ``runserver`` command (replace ``yourapp`` with the name of the directory containing the Django project)::

$ python yourapp/manage.py runserver

The base app will run but you'll need to carry out a few steps to make the sign-up and login forms work. These are currently detailed in `issue #39`_.

.. _issue #39: https://github.com/pydanny/cookiecutter-django/issues/39

**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 the included Grunt task.

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

$ npm install grunt

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

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-

It's time to write the code!!!
