Django Docker Template

Starter template for Django in a Docker container. Includes Postgres for the database and Django Rest Framework configured with Knox token authentication enabled.

Dependencies

• Docker (running as non-root user)
• Git

How to use

1. Clone the project and enter the project directory
   1. git clone https://edbuildsthings.com/tiradoe/django-docker-template.git YOUR_PROJECT_NAME
   2. cd YOUR_PROJECT_NAME
2. Run the setup script
   1. ./firstRun.sh and enter information when prompted
   2. If something goes wrong, running git checkout . will restore any changes but you'll need to manually delete the project directory that was created

That's it! You should now have a basic project running with documentation at http://localhost:8000

Note: This uses common Linux utis so it should work on just about any Linux distro (including Windows WSL) and probably MacOS too. However, this has only been tested on Fedora Linux. Please submit an issue if you run into any problems and I'll see what I can do.
