vagrant-wagtail-develop

A script to painlessly set up a Vagrant environment for development of Wagtail.

Features

• Checkouts of Wagtail, wagtaildemo, django-modelcluster and Willow ready to develop against
• Node.js / npm toolchain for front-end asset building
• Optional packages installed (PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Embedly, Sphinx...)
• Virtualenvs for Python 2 and 3

Setup

Clone this repo, and run:

./setup.sh

(On platforms that can't run shell scripts, run the commands from setup.sh manually instead.)

This will build a VM instance ready for you to SSH into:

vagrant ssh

What you can do

Start up wagtaildemo:

./manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

and visit http://localhost:8000. The admin interface is at http://localhost:8000/admin/ - log in with admin / changeme

Run tests:

cd ../wagtail
./runtests.py

Build front-end assets:

cd ../wagtail
npm run build

(or npm run watch to watch the source files for changes)

Build the docs:

cd ../wagtail/docs
make html

Switch to Python 2.7:

source ~/.virtualenvs/wagtailpy2/bin/activate

And back to Python 3:

source ~/.virtualenvs/wagtaildemo/bin/activate
