Development¶
You can safely install from master, it is almost always in a usable and stable state.
Virtual environment¶
$ python3 -m venv venv-wger
$ source venv-wger/bin/activate
Get the code¶
$ git clone https://github.com/wger-project/wger.git src
$ cd src
Install Requirements¶
$ pip install -r requirements_dev.txt
$ npm install -g yarn sass
$ python setup.py develop
Install application¶
This will download the required JS and CSS libraries and create a SQlite database and populate it with data on the first run:
$ wger create-settings
$ wger bootstrap
$ wger load-online-fixtures
You can of course also use other databases such as postgres or mariaDB. Create a database and user and edit the DATABASES settings before calling bootstrap. Take a look at the prod_postgres on apache on how that could look like.
Start the server¶
After the first run you can just use django’s development server:
$ python manage.py runserver
That’s it. You can log in with the default administrator user:
- username: admin
- password: adminadmin
You can start the application again with the django server with
python manage.py runserver
.
