An opinionated Django setup bundled as an Aldryn Addon

Project description

pypi build coverage

An opinionated Django setup bundled as a Divio Cloud addon.

This package will auto configure Django, including admin and some other basic packages. It also handles sane configuration of the database connection and static and media files.

The goal is to keep the footprint inside the Django website project as small as possible, so updating things usually just means bumping a version in requirements.txt and no other changes in the project.

This addon still uses the legacy “Aldryn” naming. You can read more about this in our support section.

Installation

Nothing to do. aldryn-django is part of the Divio Cloud platform.

For a manual install:

Add aldryn-django to your projects requirements.txt or pip install it.

The version is made up of the Django release with an added digit for the release version of this package itself.

If you followed the aldryn-addons installation instructions, you should already have a ALDRYN_ADDONS setting. Add aldryn-django to it:

INSTALLED_ADDONS = [
    'aldryn-django',
]

Create the addons/aldryn-django directory at the same level as your manage.py. Then copy addon.json, aldryn_config.py from the matching sourcecode into it.

Also create a settings.json file in the same directory with the following content:

{
    "languages": "[\"en\", \"de\"]"
}

Configuration

aldryn-django comes with entrypoints for manage.py and wsgi.py. This makes it possible to just have a small snippet of code in the website project that should never change inside those files. The details of local project setup (e.g reading environment variables from a .env file) are then up to the currently installed version of aldryn-django. Also other opinionated things can be done, like using a production-grade wsgi middleware to serve static and media files.

Put this in manage.py:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
from aldryn_django import startup


if __name__ == "__main__":
    startup.manage(path=os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))

put this in wsgi.py:

import os
from aldryn_django import startup


application = startup.wsgi(path=os.path.dirname(__file__))

APIs

Migrations

To run migrations, call the command aldryn-django migrate. This will run a series of commands for the migration stage of a project.

aldryn-django will run python manage.py migrate. But any addon can add stuff to this migration step by appending commands to the MIGRATION_COMMANDS setting. For example aldryn-cms (django-cms as an Addon) will run python manage.py cms fix-tree at the migration stage.

Production Server

Calling aldryn-django web will start an opinionated Django setup for production (currently uWSGI based).

Running Tests

You can run tests by executing:

virtualenv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
python setup.py test
