A check\u00adlist for mov\u00ading a Django-Wag\u00adtail pro\u00adject to Python\u00adAny\u00adwhere. There is doc\u00adu\u00adment\u00ada\u00adtion on the Python\u00adAny\u00adwhere site<\/a>; mine includes things I forget.<\/p>\n

Setup: devel\u00adop\u00adment and test\u00ading on my laptop, sta\u00adging and pro\u00adduc\u00adtion on PythonAnywhere.<\/p>\n

The help files are pretty good, but I need my own check\u00adlist. Right now I\u2019m in the sta\u00adging mode, but at some stage I\u2019ll be mov\u00ading to pro\u00adduc\u00adtion. No point fig\u00adur\u00ading out the same things twice!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Devel\u00adop on laptop in a vir\u00adtualenv. Push com\u00admits reg\u00adu\u00adlarly to bit\u00adbuck\u00adet account. At some stage squash the migra\u00adtions and clean those up. Four sets of set\u00adtings: dev, test\u00ading, sta\u00adging, production.<\/li>\n
  2. Set up account on Python\u00adAny\u00adwhere that allows the use of Post\u00adgres (it\u2019s an add-on to a cus\u00adtom plan).<\/li>\n
  3. Cre\u00adate vir\u00adtualenv and set up sta\u00adging web app. Delete vir\u00adtualenv when you real\u00adise you did\u00adn\u2019t use the right ver\u00adsion of Python and the default is 2.7, not 3.5. Recre\u00adate the vir\u00adtualenv with python 3.5.<\/a>\n<\/li>
  4. Clone the repos\u00adit\u00adory (using the ssh-key\u00adgen instruc\u00adtions<\/a>). Redir\u00adect the pub\u00adlic key to a file so you can copy it without line-breaks get\u00adting in the way.<\/li>\n
  5. pip install -r requirements\/production.txt<\/code> (includ\u00ading psycopg2, which I did\u00adn\u2019t need for development). <\/li>\n
  6. Cre\u00adate the Post\u00adgres serv\u00ader, user, and data\u00adbase Don\u2019t for\u00adget a strong pass\u00adword for the user (own\u00ader of the pro\u00adject database).<\/li>\n
  7. Update the set\u00adtings file with the data\u00adbase settings.<\/li>\n
  8. Set the envir\u00adon\u00adment vari\u00adables<\/a> for the set\u00adtings and the secret key (gen\u00ader\u00adat\u00ador<\/a>).<\/li>\n
  9. Attempt to apply the migra\u00adtions. This will show where you made mis\u00adtakes on all the pre\u00adced\u00ading steps.<\/li>\n
  10. Fix the mis\u00adtakes. Reload the web app to see if any\u00adthing shows up. <\/li>\n
  11. Set up the stat\u00adic file serv\u00ader. Check the stat\u00adic files are being served correctly.<\/li>\n
  12. Cre\u00adate the Django super\u00aduser and log in.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The next step is data, of course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
