Basic Commands

Setting Up Your Users

• To create a normal user account, just go to Sign Up and fill out the form. Once you submit it, you'll see a "Verify Your E-mail Address" page. Go to your console to see a simulated email verification message. Copy the link into your browser. Now the user's email should be verified and ready to go.

• To create an superuser account, use this command:

  $ make createsuperuser
  

For convenience, you can keep your normal user logged in on Chrome and your superuser logged in on Firefox (or similar), so that you can see how the site behaves for both kinds of users.

Setting Up Your databse

• You have first to run the data_population.py file first in the bash and have the csv file with the same directory that data_population.py exists.
• The CSV file have to have the same order as in the data_population.py file extracte them.

$ make bash
# python data_population.py
