Nginx Auth Backend

Dotenv

• Copy example.env to .env:
  • cp example.env .env
• Settings which will likely need to be set manually:
  • For both:
    • DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE - usually webapp.settings
    • ADMIN_USER
  • For Development:
    • DEBUG - set it to true
    • SITE_URL
  • For production:
    • DEBUG - set it to false
    • SECRET_KEY
    • SITE_URL
    • DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL
    • AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
    • DATABASE_URL
    • CELERY_BROKER_URL
    • MAILGUN_API_KEY
    • CELERY_TASK_DEFAULT_QUEUE
    • AXES_REDIS_URL
    • AXES_KEY_PREFIX
    • AXES_META_PRECEDENCE_ORDER
• Important note: Docker Compose reads .env files poorly. You will need to remove the double quotes from around the values being assigned. For example,
  • replace: DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE="webapp.settings"
  • with: DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=webapp.settings

Getting the project running for development

• Ensure you have Docker, docker-compose, and the above Docker image on your system.
• See the Dotenv section above and follow the steps
• From within the project run make within the backend container:
  • docker-compose run --rm backend make install
• Start the Docker containers
  • docker-compose up -d

Development

• Be sure to maintain and regularly run the tests within the project.
  • docker-compose run --rm backend make test
• Be sure to format all code before committing.
  • Ensure the pre-commit git hook is installed (within the environment from where git is run):
    • pre-commit install
  • Running git commit will now cause the pre-commit hook to run before committing is possible.
