Converting my toy list into an app.
For the app and deployment scripts to work you will need AWS credentials that can manipulate Route53 and S3.
These credentials should be put in the .env file in the root of the project.
The variables names should be the default AWS ones for the access id and secret key.
Python requirements are kept in the requirements.txt file within the project root directory.
These will mostly be installed during the image build stage using the Dockerfile.
The public facing UI uses jQuery 3.6.0 which needs to be manually installed.
This minified file is used.
Download the file and save it in /src/mynagerie/static/js as jquery-3.6.0.min.js.
It will be moved to the right place when collectstatic is run.
Terraform is used to create AWS resources that will be used by the app.
- Toy dashboard should be interactive.
- App deployment instructions.
- Static site that can run from app or JSON.
- Mobile and desktop apps, for fun.
- Add generalized field comparator to allow multiple sources from Google Sheets.
- Tests, tests, tests.
2022-10-09: Started splitting up the UI components out of the Django app.
Having a separate UI will make working on the JS easier and will make future deployment plans easier.
To facilitate a static site the docker-compose.yml file was added to run Nginx as a reverse proxy.
The "start" scripts in bin will still be used when doing backend work.
2022-08-28: Moved Google tables out of toys app and into auth_tools.
Deleted old tables and manually migrated data to the new ones, so no complex migration files.
Need to make tests if I'm going to start moving tables around.
2022-07-31: Fixed start scripts to use --rm to clean up containers.
Fixed start.bat to run from project root directory and project bin directory.
2022-07-13: Started working on adding a Lambda function for a cloud-based endpoint.
Created the load-envfile.ps1 script to load environment variables from a Docker-based file while in PowerShell.
This is needed for Terraform to work.
2022-07-04: Added the ability to compare the local toy list with the primary source on Google Sheets. Can now store Google credentials and sheet ranges in the database.
2022-07-03: Made start.sh a script to run on *nix systems to match start.bat on Windows.
Updated Dockerfile to use run.sh when starting the app.
Added admin feature to publish toys JSON to S3.
2022-07-02: Added initial Terraform scripts.
Cleaned up the "start" scripts so they now automatically start the app.
DID NOT rewrite start.bat to be a PowerShell file despite my desire.
Created the initial JS display for toy lists.
2022-06-23: Updated requirements section of README. Started working on the JS part of the interface.
2022-05-27: Started working on JSON endpoints for the dashboard.
Created start.bat to speed up getting into the container when working on Windows.
2022-05-21: Added Wave model and added it to Toy model.
2022-05-20: Started the project. Learned about dos2unix after wasting a lot of time. Created the base Docker image. Setup the database models and admin pages for them. Stubbed in views.
