django-boilerplate

DEAD - At the time there was not as many, but now there are tons of great example setups. Go here instead: https://djangopackages.org/packages/p/cookiecutter-django/

Stack in mind:

• Python 2.7.x
  • NOT Python 3 compatible (WIP)
• Django 1.5+
• Jinja2
• LESS
• Heroku

Fresh Project Installation Instructions

• Put django-boilerplate on pythonpath (todo: replace w/ real setup)

• Create your project folder

  $ mkdir myproj
  $ cd myproj
  

• Create a virtual environment (optional, but highly recommended)

  $ virtualenv ve
  $ source ve/bin/activate
  

• Install django

  $ pip install django
  

• Start a boilerplate project

  $ django-admin.py start_boilerplate_project --settings="boilerplate.conf.init_settings" <application_name>
  

• Install requirements

  $ pip install -r requirements.txt
  

• If all has gone well, you should be able to fire up the development server and see some example pages

  $ python manage.py runserver
  

Integrate into an existing project

todo

• Remove databases default config in config base. Add to initial project template
