Setup

You need Docker for starting a development server. Run docker-compose.yml

URL for the dev server: http://localhost:8000/

Then proceed to setting up and importing the database. In Docker contrainer you need to mount catalog data to /columbia-catalog-data.

Then import the catalog:

python catalog/manage.py migrate
python catalog/manage.py update_instructors
python catalog/manage.py update_catalog ALL

Create Django admin user:

DJANGO_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=123 python catalog/manage.py createsuperuser --user root --email [email protected] --no-input

You may want to stop memcached server for avoiding caching in development.

python catalog/manage.py makemigrations
python catalog/manage.py migrate
