[Django] site for [welbornprod.com]...



It features a blog app I made to suit my needs, projects, web applications,

and miscellaneous scripts that I've written for one reason or another.

It's a mixture of [Python]/[Django], HTML/Templates, JavaScript, and SASS/CSS.

It uses a Postgres backend to handle all the storage.



## Django Apps:



All apps were created from scratch, because in the beginning I didn't see

many django apps to suit my specific needs.



#### Apps:



The `apps` are web-based applications, and are meant to stand alone.

They still depend on the home/main.html template, but work with their own

set of tools and models.



##### Apps/Paste:



The `paste` app is a paste-bin that uses Ace Editor to provide

syntax-highlighted viewing/editing. Pastes expire after a day, unless they

are 'on-hold'. They can have parents/replies, which are displayed in the

listing and on the paste's view.

Pastes can be private (unlisted) or public.



##### Apps/PhoneWords:



The `phonewords` app will find common english words that can be formed with

a U.S. phone number, or the reverse (words to phone numbers).



#### Blogger:



The `blogger` app is a basic blog app, with pagination and a brief index page.

This has nothing to do with the more popular django app named 'blogger'.



#### Downloads:



The `downloads` app tracks the download count for any file, as long as it

is linked to `/dl/file`. Right now it is coupled with several other apps,

to update the `download_count` on the Project/Misc/etc. objects themselves,

instead of just the file name.



#### Home:



The `home` app provides a landing page for the site, with featured projects,

blog posts, and web apps.



#### Img:



The `img` app provides an image uploader/viewer. Only admins can upload an

image.



#### Misc:



The `misc` app provides a list of 'Misc. Objects', which are miscellaneous

scripts/modules that are too small to warrant a full 'Project' page.



#### Projects:



The `projects` app provides a list of 'Projects', which are various programs

that I've written over the years.



#### Searcher:



The `searcher` app allows various models to be searched. It gathers the

objects and buids a `WpResult` based on their attributes defined in

`app/search.py`.

It depends on `INSTALLED_APPS`, and looks for a `search.py` within the apps.

As long as the *must-have* functions are implemented in `search.py` the app's

models can be searched.



#### Stats:



The `stats` app provides view/download counts for the various models found

in the other apps. It currently provides the counts for apps, pastes,

blog posts, file trackers, images, misc objects, and projects.



#### Viewer:



The `viewer` app will display a syntax-highlighted file, and will show extra

information if the file is related to a Project/Misc. It also updates the

`view_count` on the Project/Misc/etc. objects for files that are related to

these objects.



#### Wp_Main:



The `wp_main` app holds many utilities that are used throughout the other apps.

Common http responses, response filters, html methods, server-side

highlighting methods, tweet tools, and various other utility methods are found

here. The main SASS imports are also in `wp_main`.

## Language/Libraries:



**Python 3+**



  ...this isn't 100% Python 2 compatible anymore.



**Django 1.10.4+** - (`django`)



  ...awesome web framework that made this possible



**Django Debug Toolbar** - (`django-debug-toolbar`)



  ...for very useful django debugging info in the browser.



**Django Extensions** - (`django-extensions`)



  ...several extra tools to use with Django's `manage` tool.



**Django Solo** - (`django-solo`)



  ...provides singleton models, for home config.



**Django User Agents** - (`django-user-agents`)



  ...using it for browser/mobile detection right now. 



  ...I'm using media queries but there are a few things that the user agent is still good for.



**Pygments** - (`pygments`)



  ...used for source code highlighting.



**Twython** - (`twython`)



  ...uses the Twitter API to retrieve latest tweets.



There is a working `requirements.txt` that lists all the python dependencies

more precisely.
