Django Project Template

This project was generated from the Momentum Django project template. This template sets up some minimal changes:

• django-extensions and django-debug-toolbar are both installed and set up.
• django-environ is set up and the DEBUG, SECRET_KEY, and DATABASES settings are set by this package.
• There is a custom user model defined in users.models.User.
• There is a templates/ and a static/ directory at the top level, both of which are set up to be used.
• A .gitignore file is provided.
• Pipenv is used to manage dependencies.

Using this template

In an empty directory, run:

pipenv --three
pipenv install django
pipenv shell
rm Pipfile Pipfile.lock
django-admin startproject --template=https://github.com/momentumlearn/django-project-template/archive/master.zip <your_project_name> .
pipenv install
cp <your_project_name>/.env.sample <your_project_name>/.env
./manage.py migrate

Remember to change <your_project_name> to your actual project name. We remove Pipfile and Pipfile.lock at the beginning because django-admin will not overwrite them with the new ones from our template.
