This is DEPRECATED software. See https://github.com/watchdogpolska/petycja-norweskie for alternative.

Settings

ankieta relies extensively on environment settings which will not work with Apache/mod_wsgi setups. It has been deployed successfully with both Gunicorn/Nginx and even uWSGI/Nginx.

For configuration purposes, the following table maps the 'ankieta' environment variables to their Django setting:

Environment Variable	Django Setting	Development Default	Production Default
DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID	AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID	n/a	raises error
DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY	AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY	n/a	raises error
DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME	AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME	n/a	raises error
DJANGO_CACHES	CACHES	locmem	memcached
DJANGO_DATABASES	DATABASES	See code	See code
DJANGO_DEBUG	DEBUG	True	False
DJANGO_EMAIL_BACKEND	EMAIL_BACKEND	django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend	django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend
DJANGO_SECRET_KEY	SECRET_KEY	CHANGEME!!!	raises error
DJANGO_SECURE_BROWSER_XSS_FILTER	SECURE_BROWSER_XSS_FILTER	n/a	True
DJANGO_SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT	SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT	n/a	True

Getting up and running

The steps below will get you up and running with a local development environment. We assume you have the following installed:

• pip
• virtualenv
• MySQL

First make sure to create and activate a virtualenv, then open a terminal at the project root and install the requirements for local development:

$ pip install -r requirements/local.txt

You can now run the runserver_plus command:

$ python ankieta/manage.py runserver_plus

The base app will run but you'll need to carry out a few steps to make the sign-up and login forms work. These are currently detailed in issue #39.

Live reloading and Sass CSS compilation

If you'd like to take advantage of live reloading and Sass / Compass CSS compilation you can do so with the included Grunt task.

Make sure that nodejs is installed. Then in the project root run:

$ npm install grunt

Now you just need:

$ grunt serve

The base app will now run as it would with the usual manage.py runserver but with live reloading and Sass compilation enabled.

To get live reloading to work you'll probably need to install an appropriate browser extension

It's time to write the code!!!

Deployment

It is possible to deploy to Heroku or to your own server by using Dokku, an open source Heroku clone.

Heroku

Run these commands to deploy the project to Heroku:

heroku create --buildpack https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-python
heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:dev
heroku addons:add pgbackups:auto-month
heroku addons:add sendgrid:starter
heroku addons:add memcachier:dev
heroku pg:promote DATABASE_URL
heroku config:set DJANGO_CONFIGURATION=Production
heroku config:set DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=RANDOM_SECRET_KEY_HERE
heroku config:set DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_AWS_ID_HERE
heroku config:set DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_HERE
heroku config:set DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME=YOUR_AWS_S3_BUCKET_NAME_HERE
git push heroku master
heroku run python ankieta/manage.py migrate
heroku run python ankieta/manage.py createsuperuser
heroku open

Dokku

You need to make sure you have a server running Dokku with at least 1GB of RAM. Backing services are added just like in Heroku however you must ensure you have the relevant Dokku plugins installed.

cd /var/lib/dokku/plugins
git clone https://github.com/rlaneve/dokku-link.git link
git clone https://github.com/jezdez/dokku-memcached-plugin memcached
git clone https://github.com/jezdez/dokku-postgres-plugin postgres
dokku plugins-install

You can specify the buildpack you wish to use by creating a file name .env containing the following.

export BUILDPACK_URL=<repository>

You can then deploy by running the following commands.

git remote add dokku dokku@yourservername.com:ankieta
git push dokku master
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku memcached:create ankieta-memcached
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku memcached:link ankieta-memcached ankieta
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku postgres:create ankieta-postgres
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku postgres:link ankieta-postgres ankieta
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set ankieta DJANGO_CONFIGURATION=Production
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set ankieta DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=RANDOM_SECRET_KEY_HERE
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set ankieta DJANGO_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_AWS_ID_HERE
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set ankieta DJANGO_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_HERE
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set ankieta DJANGO_AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME=YOUR_AWS_S3_BUCKET_NAME_HERE
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set ankieta SENDGRID_USERNAME=YOUR_SENDGRID_USERNAME
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku config:set ankieta SENDGRID_PASSWORD=YOUR_SENDGRID_PASSWORD
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku run ankieta python ankieta/manage.py migrate
ssh -t dokku@yourservername.com dokku run ankieta python ankieta/manage.py createsuperuser

When deploying via Dokku make sure you backup your database in some fashion as it is NOT done automatically.
