HedyNet

This is the repository for a makerspace management system for Seattle Attic.

It is written in Django, with a default setup of Django/Apache/MySQL.

Installation

This set up requires certain environment variables to be set. The list can be found in the HedyNet/HedyNet/wsgi.py file.

Best practices involve using virtualenv. Then, one can:

pip install -r requirements/local.txt

To install the necessary Python dependencies. The virtualenv environment will also need those environment variables to be set in this environment file:

bin/postactivate

Additionally, in order to compile the SCSS into CSS, Ruby is required with the following gems installed:

gem install zurb-foundation
gem install compass

If you are using apache, there is an example config in HedyNet/apache.

Collecting Static Files

Do these commands from the base HedyNet directory.

First, one can use Django's collectstatic:

./manage.py collectstatic

Then in the HedyNet directory, one can use:

compass compile

To do a single compile, or:

compass watch

To continually watch the SCSS files for changes and recompile.
