Setup the virtualenv :

virtualenv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

If you don't have virtualenv or pip :

python manage.py runfront

Setting up the production environment

Before anything else :

In the following commands, replace {{name}} by the name you want for your site.

You can also run python manage.py configuredeployment which will configure all the files for you and change these commands accordingly.

Generating certificate for https :

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout nginx/ssl/{{name}}.key -out nginx/ssl/{{name}}.csr
openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in nginx/ssl/{{name}}.csr -signkey nginx/ssl/{{name}}.key -out nginx/ssl/{{name}}.crt

Installing docker :

sudo sh -c "wget -qO- https://get.docker.io/gpg | apt-key add -"

sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install lxc-docker
sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} docker
sudo service docker restart
newgrp docker
