preprint server

DEVELOP WITH POETRY

Install poetry. Then

poetry install
poetry run python manage.py migrate

To start the local server:

poetry run python manage.py runserver

DEPLOY WITH DOCKER

Build:

docker-compose build

Create superuser or change password:

docker-compose run web ./manage.py createsuperuser
docker-compose run web ./manage.py changepassword <username>

Run:

docker-compose up

INSTALL PIPRINTS

Install poetry then

poetry install

Customize your instance by setting environment variables in .env

copy .env.example .env

IMPORTANT: change the SECRET_KEY to some other random and secret value. If anyone knows the secret_key you are using (maybe because you are using the default), then they are able to log in your site as any user (including administrators)!

At last execute

    poetry run python manage.py collectstatic

to collect all static files in a single directory,

    poetry run python manage.py migrate

to initialize the database and

    poetry run python manage.py createsuperuser

to create a superuser in the database.

You can start a development server with:

poetry run python manage.py runserver

When using in production, use the provided WSGI script (you can configure the virtualenv to use in config.ini).

Once you have a running webserver, you can access the /admin/ page to configure everything else.

From the /admin/ interface you must create a SiteParameters object to extend the default Site object (initially called example.com).

You can create new users by filing a user request from the /request/ page then manage the request (with admin credentials) from the /person_requests/ page.

You can change a user's password with the command

    poetry run python manage.py changepassword <username>

DEVELOPMENT SERVER

Per provare il codice develop bisogna dare questi comandi (bisogna avere accesso a [e-mail]):

ssh -L 8080:localhost:8080 [e-mail]
./piprints_develop/manage.py runserver 8080

a quel punto si può aprire la pagina tramite un tunnel in locale:

http://localhost:8080

e si dovrebbe vedere un clone di cvgmt (database clonato, documenti clonati) su cui si possono fare tutte le prove che volete. Premere ctrl-C per fermare il server e ctrl-D per chiudere il tunnel.

BACKUP

Per fare un dump del database il comando che sembra funzionare e' questo:

da un lato:

python manage.py dumpdata --exclude=contenttypes --exclude=auth.Permission --exclude=admin -o mydump.json

dall'altro lato:

python manage.py flush   ## cancella il database!!
python manage.py loaddata mydump.json
