First Time Setup

If you don't have a virtual environment set up yet:

• Create a virtual environment:

   python3 -m venv venv

• Activate the virtual environment:

   source venv/bin/activate

• Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

• Run migrations:

   python3 manage.py migrate

• Run the server:

   python3 manage.py runserver

Steps to run the Python Server

• Activate the virtual environment:

   source venv/bin/activate

• Run the Django development server:

   python3 manage.py runserver

• Access the application: Open your browser to http://localhost:8000

• To deactivate the virtual environment when done:

   deactivate

Steps to deploy changes

• git checkout -b branch-name
• make changes to branch-name
• git add .
• git commit -m "message"
• git push origin branch-name
• cmd click GitHub link
• bypass rules and merge (for now)
• git checkout main
• git pull origin main
• git fetch origin deploy (if you don't have deploy branch yet)
• git checkout deploy
• git merge main
• git push origin deploy
• If you changed models: run heroku run python manage.py migrate to apply database changes

Important Notes

• Always run migrations on Heroku after changing models - Your local migrations won't automatically apply to production
• To verify migrations worked: heroku run python manage.py showmigrations
