Quick Start

>> pip install djvasa
>> djvasa --postgres
What's the name of your project? foobar

>> cd foobar
>> vagrant up

The above creates your basic Django project and provisions your virtual environment so you can start development. Once you shell into your vagrant environment the motd will provide you instructions on how to activate your virtualenv and run your server.

>> djvasa -h
usage: djvasa [-h] [--heroku] [--mysql] [--postgres] [--hg]

optional arguments:
-h, --help  show this help message and exit
--heroku    Initialize the project for deployment to Heroku.
--mysql     Initialize the project with MySQL.
--postgres  Initialize the project with Postgres.
--hg        Initialize project for mercurial.

Heroku

Djvasa provides an option to set your project up for deployment to Heroku. Since Heroku uses Postgres as the database, postgres will automatically be enabled for your project. Your settings file will contain the necessary Heroku requirements. Below is an example:

>> djvasa --heroku
What's the name of your project? foobar
What's your full name? Chad Gallemore
What's your email? cgallemore@gmail.com

>> cd foobar
>> git init
>> git add .
>> git ci -m"my django app"
>> heroku create
>> git push heroku master
>> heroku run python manage.py syncdb
>> heroku open
