Build Status codecov

This repository contains sources of Django application that powers DjangoGirls.org.

What's in it?

It's a simple CMS that contains 4 models:

  • Event - a list of events and their website configuration
  • EventPageContent - blocks of content that are visible on the website
  • EventPageMenu - items of menu of every website

How to create new event?

Simply go to command line and run this command:

python ./manage.py new_event

And then follow the instructions.

How to manage your website?

Event

http://djangogirls.org/admin/core/event/

Here you can change:

  • Meta tags - title and description of the website
  • Main color - main color on the website in HEX (default is FF9400)
  • Custom CSS - customize CSS on the website
  • URL - url that goes after the domain (http://djangogirls.org/__url__)
  • Is live? - live website is available on the homepage and can be accessed by anyone

EventPageContent

http://djangogirls.org/admin/core/eventpagecontent/

Each website comes with some default content that you can adjust to your needs. Each object is a "block" on the website that you can modify in following ways:

  • Name - it's also a permalink that you can link to like this: #name
  • Content - HTML is allowed
  • Background - there are two available types of blocks: without background and with background. By uploading image you're choosing the type with background.
  • Is public - check this if you want this block to be visible

EventPageMenu

http://djangogirls.org/admin/core/eventpagemenu/add/

To manage menu available on the website, you can add objects to EventPageMenu. Available options:

  • Title
  • URL

Contributing to Django Girls website

The website is hosted on PythonAnywhere and is available here: http://djangogirls.org/

Please note that we use Python 3 only, so make sure that you use correct version when running commands below.

Setting up a development environment

First, clone the repository:

git clone [email protected]:DjangoGirls/djangogirls.git

Step into newly created djangogirls directory:

cd djangogirls

Create a new virtual environment if needed. Then, install all the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Start the PostgreSQL database server and enter the psql shell (you need to have PostgreSQL installed):

psql

In the psql shell, create a database and a role with the necessary permissions:

CREATE DATABASE djangogirls;
CREATE ROLE postgres;
GRANT ALL privileges ON DATABASE djangogirls TO postgres;
ALTER ROLE postgres WITH LOGIN;

Exit the psql shell:

\q

Run the migration to create database schema:

./manage.py migrate

Load sample data to the database

./manage.py loaddata sample_db.json

Create a user so you can login to the admin:

./manage.py createsuperuser

Install dependencies for static files:

npm install

Compile CSS and JS files:

gulp watch

Run your local server:

 ./manage.py runserver

๐ŸŽ‰ You're done.

Run the tests

You can run the tests like this:

python -m pytest

Or if you want coverage reports:

python -m pytest --cov

For a coverage report with information about missing lines, run this:

python -m pytest --cov-report term-missing --cov

Static files

We're using a Stylus as our CSS pre-processor. Get styling with Stylus.

This means you shouldn't change any css files, but .styl files. They're in /static/source/css/ directory.

Autocompiling of .styl files to .css:

npx gulp watch

We're also using gulp for our static files builds (see below). To build static files for production, run this:

npx gulp build

For local development:

npx gulp local

Gulp Tasks

Static files are generated and maintained using gulp.js. To use, you'll need Node.js installed. Then, run npm install. You can now use npx gulp (note that it's np**x**), followed by one of the following commands:

  • gulp local - run a one-off local build of css & js
  • gulp watch - compile and watch static assets for changes
  • gulp build - run a one-off production build, which involves minifying code and asset revision markers
  • gulp clean - remove the results of any of the above commands

Running gulp on its own runs watch by default.

Developing Gulp Tasks

Each gulp task is a single function, which are combined using the series operator so they run as a workflow. Each are commented with what they do and why they're important.

The biggest gotcha is async completion. Each task much signal to gulp when it has finished. The easiest way to do this is using an aysnc function, but if your functionality uses gulp streams (most native gulp functionality does), then you should not use an async function. Instead, return the gulp stream from the function and it will be handled correctly.

// WRONG - uses gulp's streams in an async function; subsequent tasks won't wait for completion correctly:
const copyFiles = async () => {
    return gulp.src(...).pipe(gulp.dest(...))
}

// RIGHT - either returns a gulp stream _or_ uses an `async` function:
const copyFiles = () => {
    return gulp.src(...).pipe(gulp.dest(...))
}
const deleteFiles = async () => {
    await del(...)
}

Hosting on PythonAnywhere

Key bits of config and secrets are stored in environment variables in two places:

  • in the WSGI file (linked from the Web Tab)
  • in the virtualenv postactivate at ~/.virtualenvs/djangogirls.com/bin/postactivate

Google Apps API integration

We're using Google Apps Admin SDK for creating email accounts in djangogirls.org domain automatically.

Several things were needed to get this working:

  1. Create an app in Developer Console
  2. Create a service account to enable 2 legged oauth (https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2ServiceAccount)
  3. Enable delegation of domain-wide authority for the service account.
  4. Enable Admin SDK for the domain.
  5. Give the service account permission to access admin.directory.users service (https://admin.google.com/AdminHome?chromeless=1#OGX:ManageOauthClients).
