• Click on "Use this template" above, this will create a new repository based on this template
• clone your new repository to local
• setup your environment using venv or pipenv, and activate
• run pip install -r installer/requirements.txt, or if you plan on testing it, use installer/test_requirements.txt. If the installation throws an error like this: ERROR: No matching distribution found for psycopg2==2.9.2, edit installer/basic_requirements.txt on line 7 to psycopg2-binary==2.9.2 and re-run that command. Don't forget to undo the change after pip install is done
• setup your environment variable, consult ex.env file as a guide. Copy that file, make modifications, and rename it to .env

• make sure you install the requirements from installer/test_requirements.txt file
• we are using pytest as the test framework, so you can put fixtures in the conftest.py file and your tests in tests folder.
• make sure to prefix the names of your test files (and test functions inside of them) with test_. For example:

  # file name: tests/test_user.py
  
  def test_user(user) -> None:
    assert user is not None
  

• run the tests with this command: pytest -s. This will run all tests in tests folder, the -s flag is used to show all print() functions that will otherwise be hidden. You can also run the test files individually like so: pytest -s tests/test_user.py
• consult Pytest documentation or pytest-django documentation for more information

• install gettext from your OS's package manager (sudo apt install gettext in Ubuntu)

• import gettext on the file you want to have your translations in like so:

  from django.utils.translation import gettext as _
  

• mark the texts you want to be translated like this:

  print(_("key"))
  message: str = _("another key")
  

  Note: django localisation does not support f-string, if you need string interpolation, do it this way:

  message: str = _(f"user {user} is not found")  # WILL NOT WORK
  message: str = _("user %(user)s is not found") % {"user": user}  # Do this instead
  

• run ./manage.py makemessages -a every time you add new keys or edit existing ones to save the changes and register your keys.

• edit locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/django.po (or locale/zh_Hant/LC_MESSAGES/django.po) and add your translations in msgstr fields

• when finished, run ./manage.py compilemessages to compile your changes, this will create *.mo files alongside the .po files

• consult Django documentation for more information

• There is a descriptive README file in the deployment/ directory.
• skaffold.yaml is used by the skaffold dev/deployment tool. It needs to be in the root directory so that it can access all the code for building images.

The automated documentation generated by Swagger can be accessed at /api/docs. Only authenticated users/administrators can view the endpoint documentation. The server will redirect users/administrators to a login page at /login when they hit the documentation endpoint without an active and valid user session.
