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!
