Django Article on Developerworks

Posted in clepy, python, django at 11:40 pm by Ian Maurer

The first article in my 2 part series on Python web development is now up on the IBM Developerworks website. This article features Django and the next one will be about TurboGears.

You can also digg it if you are so inclined.

If you want to download the actual source code, you can grab it from here:

http://itmaurer.com/djproject.tar.gz

It is only going to work using the ‘python manage.py runserver’ command since it uses relative paths for both the sqlite database and the templates directory. The admin user is “admin” with a password of “password”.

If you have any trouble, please send me an email (ian -at- itmaurer -dot- com).

    “The latest version of Python (2.3.5 at the time of this article) is recommended.”

    rmunn@localhost:/home/rmunn$ python
    Python 2.4.3 (#2, Apr 27 2006, 14:43:58)
    [GCC 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)] on linux2
    Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information.
    >>>

    Darn, I must have forgotten to return the keys to the time machine. Again. :-)

    Thanks for the heads up, IBM was kind enough to rephrase that piece:

    “Django requires, at a minimum, version 2.3.5, which is available at the Python Web site”
