Project Chirp is a social networking site written using Python/Django. See demo here: https://projectchirp.herokuapp.com/

1. Create a postgres database named chirp with you as an owner.

2. Clone this repo(preferably use ssh clone instead of https, you won't be bothered asking for password every time you push/pull).

   • git clone git@github.com:skshetry/Chirp.git

3. cd into this repo(where you cloned) and create a virtual environment(preferably, using python -m venv venv on bash/zsh).

   On Windows if above didn't work, c:\Python36\python -m venv c:\path\to\venv.^[1]

4. Activate the virtual environment( source venv/bin/activate).

   On Windows, either use venv\Scripts\activate.bat on cmd.exe or venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1on PowerShell(default on Windows 10).

5. Install all the requirements (pip install -r requirements/local.txt).

   If this didn't work, use python -m pip install -r requirements/local.txt.

6. Copy the file env.example from root of the repo in a new file .env(dot env) in the same directory. Don't delete env.example though.

7. Open the file and change the <user> to the database owner and <pass> to the database password.

8. Make migrations file and migrate.

   • (削除) ./manage.py makemigrations (削除ここまで)
   • ./manage.py migrate

9. Run test to ensure everything is working.

   • ./manage.py test

     If it doesn't, revisit all the above points. It might be that you have forgotten something along the way.

10. Run the development server.

• ./manage.py runserver

11. Open the repo in your favorite text editor.
12. Before you start working, create a issue and corresponding WIP(Work in Progress) branch and merge request(MR) from gitlab.

Pull that using git pull --all and checkout to the new branch(git checkout <branchname>).
