mini_fiction 0.0.4

CMS for fanfics

Library CMS on Python for fanfics. Currently in development.

Short feature list: fanfics with genres, characters and events; comments with trees; search (using Sphinx); user profiles with contacts; premoderation of fanfics; favorites and bookmarks; notices from administrator; PJAX-like loading of page content; customizable design; primitive plugin system.

CMS currently in Russian, and we would be grateful for the translation of all phrases in English.

Quick start

Install lxml. Then:

pip install mini_fiction
mkdir media
mini_fiction seed
mini_fiction createsuperuser
mini_fiction runserver

Website will be available at http://localhost:5000/, administration page is http://localhost:5000/admin/.

Configuration file

Just copy local_settings.example.py to local_settings.py and edit it. Then run mini_fiction runserver in the same directory with this file.

If mini_fiction can’t import module local_settings, try to set environment variable PYTHONPATH=. (don’t forget export PYTHONPATH for unix shells).

If you want to change domain (e.g. 127.0.0.1:5000 or example.com instead of default localhost:5000), change SERVER_NAME option.

You can run mini_fiction status to check some configuration variables.

Search, avatars and captcha are disabled by default.
