I was not able to reproduce @MikeTheCanuck 's problem. I created a new directory, cloned the repository, and followed the instructions in the top-level README.md. I did not change any of the defaults, so it created a SQLite database in my dev environment. I was able to load data, then get the expected results from endpoints from local I did notice one error with a path in step 2: You only need Note: The procedure for configuring is slightly different, so you need to have the latest from |

Well, I just freshly broke my python installation today so I can't try recreating this until I put 3.5 back on my computer, but some thoughts: Mike - @jimtyhurst I did modify that line in manage.py, but it was originally:
I think that some of our extensions, like DRF, have default settings they come with but I'm not sure if those default settings are actually set in django.conf.settings or they're stored somewhere within the package's codebase. All other settings you see should be in 'base' or 'dev'. EDIT Also, I'm actually comfortable having a bug or two in the setup process as long as we're aware of them and know how to fix. Fixing them would be a good way for a new contributor to familiarize themselves with the codebase/github workflow. |
I performed a walkthrough of the new README in advance of tomorrow's Hackathon - make sure I know what others will be using, and see if there's any issues that I could clear up.
I discovered one issue that I don't know how to immediately solve, so rather than delay the solution I'm posting my finding in hopes that others might know how to solve.
Steps taken
I'm following this version of the README and I got through to Step 4 of "setting up your development environment". When I run the
./budget_proj/manage.py makemigrations
command, I receive this error in return:Is there a missing step where we'd run
source bin/env.sh
