Development setup

Let's assume you are on linux.

You should have installed:

• A recent version of Python 3 (Version 3.6 or above)
• virtualenv
• pip3
• git

You can check your versions like this:

$ python3 --version
Python 3.6.5
$ virtualenv --version
15.1.0
$ pip3 --version
pip 9.0.1 from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (python 3.6)
$ git --version
git version 2.17.1

Clone this repository into a folder of your choice, this will create the aoe2map folder with all the relevant files:

git clone https://github.com/SiegeEngineers/aoe2map.git

Now we set up a virtual python environment inside that folder

cd aoe2map
virtualenv -p python3 venv

A folder venv is created that contains the virtual python environment.

Now we activate that environment:

source venv/bin/activate

Your command line prompt should now show (venv) at the beginning.

We install the required dependencies into our environment. They have been written down into dependencies.txt, so we just have to execute:

pip install -r dependencies.txt

We also want to install the development dependencies from development.txt:

pip install -r development.txt

Before we can start the application, we have to add configuration files. We copy the templates in the aoe2map subfolder, but for development, we do not have to edit anything inside.

cp aoe2map/deployment.py.template aoe2map/deployment.py
cp aoe2map/imagestorage.py.template aoe2map/imagestorage.py

Now we get to work with Django itself. We initialize the database:

./manage.py migrate

… add a superuser:

./manage.py createsuperuser --username admin --email [email protected]

… and can run the development server:

./manage.py runserver

It should say something like:

Performing system checks...

System check identified no issues (0 silenced).
September 10, 2018 - 19:03:25
Django version 2.1, using settings 'aoe2map.settings'
Starting development server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.

Open your browser and go to http://localhost:8000 and you should see an empty aoe2map.net instance where you can login with the superuser we created earlier.

Further useful information:

• The admin interface is then available at http://localhost:8000/admin
• In the default development configuration, all emails the system would send get logged to the console instead
• The development server reloads automatically when files change
• I use PyCharm for development
