✨ Start the app in Docker

👉 Step 1 - Download the code from the GH repository (using GIT)

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/django-black-dashboard.git
$ cd django-black-dashboard

👉 Step 2 - Start the APP in Docker

$ docker-compose up --build 

Visit http://localhost:5085 in your browser. The app should be up & running.


✨ How to use it

Download the code

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/django-black-dashboard.git
$ cd django-black-dashboard

👉 Set Up for Unix, MacOS

Install modules via VENV

$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Set Up Database

$ python manage.py makemigrations
$ python manage.py migrate

Start the app

$ python manage.py runserver

At this point, the app runs at http://127.0.0.1:8000/.


👉 Set Up for Windows

Install modules via VENV (windows)

$ virtualenv env
$ .\env\Scripts\activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Set Up Database

$ python manage.py makemigrations
$ python manage.py migrate

Start the app

$ python manage.py runserver

At this point, the app runs at http://127.0.0.1:8000/.


✨ Create Users

By default, the app redirects guest users to authenticate. In order to access the private pages, follow this set up:

  • Start the app via flask run
  • Access the registration page and create a new user:
    • http://127.0.0.1:8000/register/
  • Access the sign in page and authenticate
    • http://127.0.0.1:8000/login/

Recompile CSS

To recompile SCSS files, follow this setup:


👉 Step #1 - Install tools

  • NodeJS 12.x or higher
  • Gulp - globally
    • npm install -g gulp-cli
  • Yarn (optional)

👉 Step #2 - Change the working directory to assets folder

$ cd apps/static/assets

👉 Step #3 - Install modules (this will create a classic node_modules directory)

$ npm install
// OR
$ yarn

👉 Step #4 - Edit & Recompile SCSS files

$ gulp

The generated file is saved in static/assets/css directory.


✨ Code-base structure

The project is coded using a simple and intuitive structure presented below:
