PyLucid CMS
Project description
about PyLucid
PyLucid is an Open Source web content management system written in Python using Django-CMS.
It’s more a alternative for djangocms-installer
The goal is to simplify the Django-CMS setup.
PyLucid delivers ready-to-use compiled Twitter Bootstrap v4 (Licensed under MIT) with some simple templates directly.
PyLucid is licensed under GNU General Public License v3 or later (GPLv3+)
Try, fork and contribute! ;)
install
1. bootstrap PyLucid virtualenv
# download bootstrap file: /home/FooBar$ wget https://github.com/jedie/PyLucid/raw/master/pylucid/pylucid_boot.py # Create virtualenv with all needed packages: /home/FooBar$ python3 pylucid_boot.py boot ~/PyLucid-env
2. use the created PyLucid virtualenv
# Go into created virtualenv: /home/FooBar$ cd ~/PyLucid-env # activate the env: ~/PyLucid-env $ source bin/activate # Start the interactive admin shell: (PyLucid-env) ~/PyLucid-env $ pylucid_admin pylucid_admin.py shell v3.0.0 Type help or ? to list commands. pylucid_admin.py>
3. create a page instance
A page instance is a django project with own settings, for easy start a own web page. Create a page instance in the interactive admin shell:
pylucid_admin.py> create_page_instance ~/page_instance you_project_name ... pylucid_admin.py> quit # Go into created page instance (PyLucid_env) ~/PyLucid_env $ cd ~/page_instance/ # Create cache tables (PyLucid_env) ~/page_instance $ ./manage.py createcachetable # init database (PyLucid_env) ~/page_instance $ ./manage.py migrate # Create a super user (PyLucid_env) ~/page_instance $ ./manage.py createsuperuser # Copies all static files together: (PyLucid_env) ~/page_instance $ ./manage.py collectstatic # run developer server: (PyLucid_env) ~/page_instance $ ./manage.py runserver
update
A general overview:
update environment
migrate database
collect static files
Update you own templates/styles (not always needed)
Looks like this:
# Go into created virtualenv: /home/FooBar$ cd ~/PyLucid-env # activate the env: ~/PyLucid-env $ source bin/activate # Start the interactive admin shell and update environment: (PyLucid-env) ~/PyLucid-env $ pylucid_admin pylucid_admin.py shell v3.0.0 Type help or ? to list commands. pylucid_admin.py> update_env ... pylucid_admin.py> quit # Go into created page instance (PyLucid_env) ~/PyLucid_env $ cd ~/page_instance/ # init database (PyLucid_env) ~/page_instance $ ./manage.py migrate # Copies all static files together: (PyLucid_env) ~/page_instance $ ./manage.py collectstatic
Note: Check ‘Backward-incompatible changes’ below!

run test project
You can run a test project with the django developer server:
(PyLucid-env) ~/PyLucid-env $ pylucid_admin run_test_project_dev_server
bootstrap manually
Note: You can install PyLucid manually via PyPi package:
create virtualenv
install pylucid via pip from PyPi
run pylucid_admin update_env
pylucid_boot.py - interactive shell
