A replica of r/place for educational use.

This project was whipped up in the latter half of April 2022 for Eric Hamber Secondary's programming club. The idea of the activity was to create bots that drew on the canvas - this was done through copying cURL requests in the browser and converting them to Python calls.

This project is at an Alpha level of readiness. The code is not sufficiently organized and the setup instructions provided in this README may be outdated. This code is currently only published for ease of access by its authors.

Note that windows users should use WSL. Ensure you have pipenv, redis installed. Clone the repository, then run pipenv shell inside the root folder. When pipenv has finished setup, run pipenv install.

Ensure that pipenv shell has been run, then run:

python3 setup.py
python3 manage.py migrate
python3 manage.py runserver

setup.py only needs to be run once upon cloning, while migrate should be run after every pull and database structure update.

To allow other computers to access the site over LAN, run:

python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

Navigate to 127.0.0.1:8000/ to see the canvas.

Run the following:

python3 manage.py createsuperuser

Navigate to 127.0.0.1:8000/admin to log in.
