Team Manager

This is a web application built with Django that manages a team, currently including purchase request authorizations. Further plans include adding member clock in/out, roster management, and possibly other things. Feel free to leave suggestions!

Purchase Request App

This is intended to help a team keep track of purchase requests. It comes with the following features:

• Add purchase requests, including name, cost, quantity, and a link to the product
• Notify the person reviewing the requests by email
• Accept/reject purchase requests and notify person in charge of finances by email
• Show a history of past purchase requests

Installation

I recommend running this application on Heroku. To deploy the app to Heroku:

1. Clone this repository using git clone https://github.com/MLavrentyev/TeamManager
2. Run heroku create <your-app-name>
3. Add the following config vars (under the settings page of Heroku): APP_PASS (your email password), SECRET_KEY (the django secret key, can be generated here: https://www.miniwebtool.com/django-secret-key-generator/), and WEB_CONCURRENCY (recommended value is 3). DATABASE_URL should already be set.
4. Add the host name to ALLOWED_HOSTS in /team_manager/settings.py. You may also want to modify the TIME_ZONE to match your team's timezone. You can run pytz.all_timezones to get a list of acceptable values.
5. Deploy to heroku using git push heroku master
6. To create an admin, use heroku run python manage.py createsuperuser. Follow the prompts to provide a username, password, and email for the admin.

The app should be located at <your-app-name>.herokuapp.com

If this doesn't work, try this additional step:

• Run heroku run python manage.py migrate

Running locally

If you want to run this locally on your machine to do a quick test or for development, follow these steps. Note that you will need to have PostgreSQL installed on your own machine for this to work.

1. Clone this repository using git clone https://github.com/MLavrentyev/TeamManager
2. Create a file named runlocal.sh in the main project directory. It should contain the following, where the four fields should be filled in with your credentials:

export APP_PASS='<email password>'
export SECRET_KEY='<django secret key>'
export DB_USER='<database user>'
export DB_PASS='<database password>'

python manage.py runserver

3. Run ./runlocal.sh to start your local server.
4. Visit localhost:8000/ to view the site.
