Software Carpentry is now running three events a week, and that number could double by the end of 2015 --- if we can streamline setup and organization. The goal of this project is to build a web-based workshop administration application using Django. It is not intended to be visible to the general public, but rather to be used by administrators to keep track of what workshops are being arranged, when they're supposed to occur, who's teaching what, and so on.
To get started:
-
Install Django and its dependencies.
-
Setup your local database. There are two ways you can do this.
-
If you have access to the secret data:
-
Create an empty database by running:
make migrations
-
Fill that database by running:
make import
-
-
Otherwise setup the redacted data with:
make database
-
-
Start a local Django development server by running:
python manage.py runserver
-
Open http://localhost:8000/workshops/ in your browser and start clicking.
Amy's data model is mostly done. What it needs now is views and controllers so that workshop organizers can inspect, add, and correct data. If you'd like to help, please fork this repository and send a pull request, or contact Greg Wilson.
