A Django-based way to write desktop applications
Project description
======
Proton
======
Proton is a Django module for building desktop apps. It provides a management command
to run the project as a desktop application rather than a server, as well as some
basic starter templates for using various stylesheets.
Behind the scenes, this is done by running the server on an arbitrary high port
and opening a thin web browser pointing to localhost on that port.
Quick Start
-----------
1. Install dependencies:
Ubuntu: `apt-get install python-gi gir1.2-webkit-3.0 gir1.2-gtk-3.0
2. Add "proton" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this::
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'proton',
]
3. Add the following values to your settings.py file:
WINDOW_TITLE = 'Title of window'
WINDOW_SIZE = (WIDTH, HEIGHT)
WINDOW_MAXIMIZE = False
WINDOW_SIZE is a tuple containing the default width and height of the window.
WINDOW_MAXIMIZE represents whether the window should be maximized by default.
4. Run `python manage.py window` to run the app locally using the dev server.
