"Home Library" website written in Django.
This web application creates an online catalog for a home library, where users can browse available books and manage their accounts.
To get this project up and running locally on your computer:
- Set up the Python development environment.
We recommend using a Python virtual environment.
Note: This has been tested against Django 4.2 (and may not work or be "optimal" for other versions).
- Assuming you have Python setup, run the following commands (if you're on Windows you may use
py
orpy -3
instead ofpython
to start Python):pip3 install -r requirements.txt python3 manage.py makemigrations python3 manage.py migrate python3 manage.py collectstatic python3 manage.py test # Run the standard tests. These should all pass. python3 manage.py createsuperuser # Create a superuser python3 manage.py runserver
- Open a browser to
http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/
to open the admin site - Create a few test objects of each type.
- Open tab to
http://127.0.0.1:8000
to see the main site, with your new objects.
