Network Hunt

Network Hunt is a website that lets you manage the job applications and networking you've been doing or will do.

Techs used

This project was made using Html, Css, Javascript and Bootstrap for the frontend. I used Python and Django to make the backend, and Postgresql for the database.

Installation

Keep in mind the examples below are Window's commands. Mac and Linux have different commands when doing the installation.

Create a virtual environment using python:

python -m venv example

Now activate the virtual environment.

example/Scripts/activate

You should be in \Network-Hunt\, so to do that change directory to Network-Hunt. Now use the package manager pip to install the requirements.txt file. While the virtual environment is activated.

cd Network-Hunt
pip install -r requirements.txt

Django allauth Regular Account Login and Registration

You will be able to use the regular login and registration functionality right from the get-go as long as you install the packages required in the requirements.txt file. You can find more information on it here. To navigate the html pages and forms make sure to read the documentation. I do not have it configured for this project.

Django allauth Social Account Login and Registration

Social account login and registration functionality need to be configured separately by you. Navigate to the settings.py file in the networkhunproject folder: \Network-Hunt\networkhuntproject\networkhuntproject\settings.py. You will see the code to configure it:

SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS = {
    'google': {

        'APP': {
            'client_id': os.environ['Google_client_id'],
            'secret': os.environ['Google_secret'],
            'key': ''
        }

    },

    'github': {

        'APP': {
            'client_id': os.environ['Github_client_id'],
            'secret': os.environ['Github_secret'],
            'key': ''
        }
    },


}

You can find the information to configure it here in the Django allauth documentation. Replace the os.environ[''] with the client's id and secret, the key is usually left empty. They will be in a string format like so:

'APP': {
            'client_id': 'hi12hh4i2',
            'secret': '11242124',
            'key': ''
        }
