Django 1.6 on OpenShift

=======================

This git repository helps you get up and running quickly w/ a Django 1.6

installation on OpenShift.  The Django project name used in this repo

is 'openshift' but you can feel free to change it.  Right now the

backend is sqlite3 and the database runtime is found in

`$OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/db.sqlite3`.

Before you push this app for the first time, you will need to change

the [Django admin password](#admin-user-name-and-password).

Then, when you first push this

application to the cloud instance, the sqlite database is copied from

`wsgi/openshift/db.sqlite3` to $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/ with your newly 

changed login credentials. Other than the password change, this is the 

stock database that is created when `python manage.py syncdb` is run with

only the admin app installed.

On subsequent pushes, a `python manage.py syncdb` is executed to make

sure that any models you added are created in the DB.  If you do

anything that requires an alter table, you could add the alter

statements in `GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/alter.sql` and then use

`GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/deploy` to execute that script (make

sure to back up your database w/ `rhc app snapshot save` first :) )

With this you can install Django 1.6 on OpenShift.

Running on OpenShift

--------------------

Create an account at http://openshift.redhat.com/

Install the RHC client tools if you have not already done so:

    

    sudo gem install rhc

Create a python-2.7 application

    rhc app create -a djangoproj -t python-2.7

Add this upstream repo

    cd djangoproj

    git remote add upstream -m master git://github.com/rancavil/django-openshift-quickstart.git

    git pull -s recursive -X theirs upstream master

####Note:

If you want to use the Redis-Cloud with Django see [the wiki](https://github.com/rancavil/django-openshift-quickstart/wiki/Django-1.6-with-Redis-Cloud) 

Then push the repo upstream

    git push

Here, the [admin user name and password will be displayed](#admin-user-name-and-password), so pay

special attention.

	

That's it. You can now checkout your application at:

    http://djangoproj-$yournamespace.rhcloud.com

Admin user name and password

----------------------------

As the `git push` output scrolls by, keep an eye out for a

line of output that starts with `Django application credentials: `. This line

contains the generated admin password that you will need to begin

administering your Django app. This is the only time the password

will be displayed, so be sure to save it somewhere. You might want 

to pipe the output of the git push to a text file so you can grep for

the password later.

When you make:

     git push

In the console output, you must find something like this:

     remote: Django application credentials:

     remote: 	user: admin

     remote: 	SY1ScjQGb2qb

Or you can go to SSH console, and check the CREDENTIALS file located 

in $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR.

     cd $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR

     vi CREDENTIALS

You should see the output:

     Django application credentials:

     		 user: admin

     		 SY1ScjQGb2qb

After, you can change the password in the Django admin console.
