AIC_mezzanine_site

This repo contains website source code of Sharif AI Challnges. We made it based on Mezzanine CMS.

Requirements

• AIC_mezzanine_site files!
• An environment with installed python requirements! (see requirements.txt)

Installation

To run this project on your own computer, you must:

• Have a running redis server:

If redis server is running, the response of command redis-cli ping must be PONG.

• Have a DataStore:

We highly recommend PostgreSQL for deployment and SQLite for development environment. DBMS settings must be set on local_settings.py.

A file named dev-samples.json contains initial sample and also simple data for fast development. it contains 13 users and 4 teams. default password used in these samples is 123456. Load this file by command: python manage.py loaddata dev-samples.json

• Have a running SMTP server (maybe a dummy one!):

Running a Debugging SMTP server is as easy as running (root privilege is required):

python3 -m smtpd -n -c DebuggingServer localhost:25

• Configure local_settings.py:

some important settings are extracted to a python file named local_settings.py in AIC_site directory.

Two samples named local_settings.deploy.sample.py and local_settings.dev.sample.py are available in that directory.

Note that you may also set BASE_AND_GAME_STORAGE (default is FileSystemStorage). E.g in deployment servers you must set:

BASE_AND_GAME_STORAGE = SyncingHashStorage("storages.backends.sftpstorage.SFTPStorage")

celery worker -A AIC_site -Q mail_queue
