Installation
============
You have several options in setting up your working environment. We recommend
using virtualenv to separate the dependencies of your project from your
system's python environment. If on Linux or Mac OS X, you can also use
virtualenvwrapper to help manage multiple virtualenvs across different
projects.
Virtualenv Only
---------------
First, make sure you are using virtualenv (http://www.virtualenv.org). Once
that's installed, create your virtualenv::
$ virtualenv --distribute gnuviechadmin
You will also need to ensure that the virtualenv has the project directory
added to the path. Adding the project directory will allow `django-admin.py` to
be able to change settings using the `--settings` flag.
Virtualenv with virtualenvwrapper
------------------------------------
In Linux and Mac OSX, you can install virtualenvwrapper
(http://virtualenvwrapper.readthedocs.org/en/latest/), which will take care of
managing your virtual environments and adding the project path to the
`site-directory` for you::
$ mkdir gnuviechadmin
$ mkvirtualenv -a gnuviechadmin gnuviechadmin-dev
$ cd gnuviechadmin && add2virtualenv `pwd`
Installation of Dependencies
=============================
Depending on where you are installing dependencies:
In development::
$ pip install -r requirements/local.txt
For production::
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
