.. _ISC License: https://github.com/CTPUG/wafer/blob/master/LICENSE


Documentation
=============

Available on `readthedocs.org`_.

.. _readthedocs.org: https://wafer.readthedocs.org/

Supported Django versions
=========================

Wafer supports Django 2.2, Django 3.0 - 3.2 and Django 4.0 - 4.1.

Installation
============

1. wafer can be installed either from pypi (``pip install wafer``)
or from the github repository.

2. If installing from github, ``pip install -r requirements.txt``
should install all the required python and django dependencies.

3. Wafer uses npm to manage front-end dependencies

* Make sure you have a recent version of Node.js installed that
includes ``npm``.

* Run ``npm install`` to install all dependencies, which also copies
them to ``wafer/static/vendor``.

4. Install the wafer applications
``manage.py migrate``

5. If you don't have one yet, create a superuser with
``manage.py createsuperuser``.

6. Examine the ``settings.py`` file and create a
``localsettings.py`` file overriding the defaults
as required.

``STATIC_FILES``, ``WAFER_MENUS``, ``MARKITUP_FILTER``,
``WAFER_PAGE_MARKITUP_FILTER``, ``WAFER_TALKS_OPEN``,
``WAFER_REGISTRATION_OPEN`` and ``WAFER_PUBLIC_ATTENDEE_LIST`` will
probably need to be overridden.

If you add extensions to ``MARKITUP_FILTER`` or
``WAFER_PAGE_MARKITUP_FILTER``, be sure to install the appropriate
python packages as well.

7. Wafer uses the Django caching infrastructure in several places, so
the cache table needs to be created using ``manage.py createcachetable``.

8. Create the default 'Page Editors' and 'Talk Mentors' groups using
``manage.py wafer_add_default_groups``.

9. Log in and configure the Site:

* The domain will be used as the base for e-mails sent during
registration.

* The name will be the conference's name.

10. Have a fun conference.

Running wafer
=============

To run a local server for development and testing, use the standard Django
``manage.py runserver``, after doing the installation.

For running the server in production, please see the `Django documentation`_
on the various possible approaches.

.. _Django documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/howto/deployment/

Features
