This sample contains the completed program from the tutorial, Using Django in Visual Studio Code. Intermediate steps are not included.

The sample also includes a Dockerfile to build a production-ready container image that uses uwsgi and nginx; the uwsgi.ini file provides uwsgi configuration.

To run the sample:

1. Create a virtual environment as described in the tutorial.
2. Install packages with pip install -r requirements.txt.
3. Activate the virtual environment by running source env/bin/activate (Linux/MacOS) or env\scripts\activate (Windows).
4. Create and initialize the database by running python manage.py migrate.
5. Create a superuser as described at the end of the tutorial.

Contributions to the sample are welcome. When submitting changes, also consider submitting matching changes to the tutorial, the source file for which is tutorial-django.md.

Debugging in Docker

In this repo there's a debug configuration for running the code in docker, after following the steps above you can debug the sample in a docker container by setting the Python: Run in Docker configuration as active.

The following files contain the configuration needed to enable this:

• debug.Dockerfile installs the remote debugger and listens on port 5678
• docker-compose.debug.yml provides uses the debug.Dockerfile and maps port 5678
• tasks.json defines a task that will run docker compose up using the debug
• launch.json defines the Run in Docker debug configuration, which runs the compose up task and attaches the remote debugger to port 5678 when it successfully completes
