Getting started

Get your environment set up:

$ virtualenv pycona-2013-web-env
$ . pyconca-2013-web-env/bin/activate
$ git clone git://github.com/pyconca/2013-web.git pyconca-2013-web
$ cd pyconca-2013-web

If you're using XCode 4 on Snow Leopard:

export ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64"

If you're still using Python 2.6 (stop that, use 2.7!):

$ pip install importlib

Install requirements and reset the development environment:

$ make reset

$ make run
./manage.py runserver 127.0.0.1:6544

Translation

For internationalization/i18n, either do:

$ make i18n

...or the good old way:

# change the symposion_project directory
$ cd symposion_project
$ django-admin.py makemessages -a

# now make changes to generated .po files ...
$ django-admin.py compilemessages

# go back to project root directory
$ cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"

# also need to change symposion directory
$ cd symposion
$ django-admin.py makemessages -a

# now make changes to generated .po files ...
$ django-admin.py compilemessages

To build documentation::

$ make docs
