Upgrading to the latest version of Django and Bootstrap #10

Open seshagiriprabhu opened 11 years ago

seshagiriprabhu commented 11 years ago

Currently, Crisis Communicator is uses Django 1.4.3 and bootstrap v2. We need to re-write everything for the latest version of Django (i.e 1.5) and bootstrap (v3.0)

swiftarrow commented 11 years ago

I've checked it out with the people on #django, there should be no problem going up to the latest version of Django 1.4.X but going to 1.5 has some differences.

I guess now is better than later though! :)

swiftarrow commented 11 years ago

Giri, are you familiar with the differences between the two? Originally I was following the tutorial for 1.5, until I noticed that my install had different defaults. Looking at the two tutorials, the syntax didn't seem different, but there are differences in the defaults in the settings.py file.

Do you think this is something that's easily accomplished?

seshagiriprabhu commented 11 years ago

I don't think there will be much differences in the syntax of v1.4 and v1.5. There may be some issues from the installed apps which I think could be fixed easily. Its better to migrate to the latest asap. May be @harishnavnit can take it up after he completes bug #17 .

@harishnavnit are you going to take this up?

tinvaan commented 10 years ago

I don't mind taking it up , but it might take a lot of time :P

varrunr commented 10 years ago

It isn't as time consuming as it sounds, it may not require much of a change in code, its more of a test of what works/doesnt work on upgrading Django.

Harish mentioned to me that he's also contributing to KDE and some other projects, and that he's not sure his skills are up to the mark. @harishnavnit thanks for letting me know, I'll un-assign you. If you are able to take this up, do assign yourself. :)

tinvaan commented 10 years ago

Thanks a lot for that @swiftarrow .I will assign myself to it ,if at some point in future ,I feel I'm upto it and ofcourse assuming the issue still remains open and un-assigned .
