Python 3, Django 4, VK auth with python-social-auth library
It's recommended to use poetry as a package manager. It also includes virtual environment functions, so instead of using such virtualenv management systems as venv or pipenv you can try poetry. For complete and full reference proceed: https://python-poetry.org/docs/.
Once you've created a directory for the project, cloned it and downloaded poetry use poetry install command to install all the needed dependecies.
As this project uses python-dotenv library, first of all you need to configure your .env with the following Django settings variables according to your needs:
SECRET_KEY
ALLOWED_HOSTS
DB_NAME
DB_USER
DB_PASSWORD
DB_HOST
DB_PORT
SOCIAL_AUTH_VK_OAUTH2_KEY
SOCIAL_AUTH_VK_OAUTH2_SECRET
This project uses PostgreSQL, so your should provide the needed database settings into the .env module.
For your convenience, use "make name-of-command". E.g. command "make runserver" will execute "poetry run python manage.py runserver" (in more common case - "python manage.py runserver"). All the make commands are listed in django-test-task/my_django_project/Makefile.
To run server use make runserver command in terminal (from "your dir"/my_django_project) make migrations and make migrate for the corresponding commands.
Step 1. Clone this repository:
git clone
Step 2. Install poetry:
pip install poetry
Step 3. Install the project dependencies:
poetry install
Step 4. Make migrations:
make migrations
make migrate
Step 5. Run local server:

During my work on this project I've encountered some difficulties beyond my current knowledge and skills. There were some additional tasks, such as setting up CI/CD, deploying the project using Docker - all of these now are one of my educational priorities..s
