Python: Getting Started

A barebones Django app, which can easily be deployed to Heroku.

$ pipenv install

$ pipenv shell

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

$ python manage.py migrate

$ python manage.py collectstatic

$ python manage.py runserver

Running on Google Cloud

Log onto Google Cloud using UNI@columbia.edu

Open Console and go to Compute Engine for Project Crank

Under "Remote Access" click on SSH. This opens up shell to the VM instance.

Clone github. The rest of the steps are the same as running locally except one.
