Requirements

          restframework => pip install djangorestframework
          
          postgresql => https://www.postgresql.org/download/
          
          psycopg2 => pip install psycopg2

After cloning the repo, a few edits in the settings.py file are needed to make the app work.

First, the SECRET_KEY variable has been commented out. You will need a secret key to make the app work. Create a dummy Django project (can be named anything; we're only doing this to get a secret key. For this example, I will use the name used in the Django documentations - "mysite"): https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/intro/tutorial01/

After creating the mysite project, from mysite/mysite/settings.py, copy the SECRET_KEY value and save it in the settings.py file from this repo. Also uncomment the SECRET_KEY line.

then, uncomment the following section in the same file:

"""

DATABASES = {

'default': {

    'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2',
    
    'NAME': '',
    
    'USER': '',
    
    'PASSWORD': '',
    
    'HOST': '',
    
    'PORT': '1234',
    
}

}

"""

After setting up postgresql ( https://www.techrepublic.com/blog/diy-it-guy/diy-a-postgresql-database-server-setup-anyone-can-handle/ ), enter the name of your database in 'NAME' field; username, password to connect to the DB server in 'USER', 'PASSWORD' fields. 'HOST' field can be left empty.

Finally, delete the following line from settings.py:

from .secret_settings import *
