djangocms-installer
is a console wizard to help bootstrapping a django CMS project.
Refer to django CMS Tutorial on how to properly setup your first django CMS project.
Note
It used to be called aldryn-installer, but since version 0.2.0 it's been renamed djangocms-installer for clarity.
Create an empty virtualenv:
virtualenv /virtualenv/path/my_project
Install `djangocms-installer`:
pip install djangocms-installer
or:
pip install -e git+https://github.com/nephila/djangocms-installer#egg=djangocms-installer
See http://djangocms-installer.readthedocs.org
The current supported version matrix is the following:
Django 1.4 | Django 1.5 | Django 1.6 | Django 1.7 | Django 1.8 | |
django CMS 2.4 | Supported | Supported | Unsupported | Unsupported | Unsupported |
django CMS 3.0 | Supported | Supported | Supported | Supported | Unsupported |
django CMS 3.1 | Unsupported | Unsupported | Supported | Supported | WiP |
django CMS dev | Unsupported | Unsupported | Supported | Supported | WiP |
Any beta and develop version of Django and django CMS, by its very nature, it's not supported, while it still may work.
djangocms-installer
tries to support beta versions of django CMS when they will be considered sufficiently stable by the upstream project.
djangocms-installer
assumes that django-admin.py
is installed in the same directory as python executable, which is the standard virtualenv layout.
While this wizard try to handle most of the things for you, it doesn't check for all the proper native (non python) libraries to be installed. Before running this, please check you have the proper header and libraries installed and available for packages to be installed.
Libraries you would want to check:
- libjpeg (for JPEG support in
Pillow
) - zlib (for PNG support in
Pillow
) - postgresql (for
psycopg
) - libmysqlclient (for
Mysql-Python
) - python-dev (for compilation and linking)
For additional information, check http://djangocms-installer.readthedocs.org/en/latest/libraries.html
The installer is tested on Windows 7 with Python versions 3.4.2 and 2.7.8 installed using official MSI packages available at http://python.org.
Please check that the .py
extension is associated correctly with Python interpreter:
c:\> assoc .py
.py=Python.File
c:\>ftype Python.File
Python.File="C:\Windows\py.exe" "%1" %*
