######## YOUR EDITOR ################

MONGODB_SETTINGS = {'DB': "quokka_1"}

######################################

Test (optional)

NOTE: Before running the tests you need to specify a database connection for tests in test_settings.py

(quokka-env)~/quokka-env/quokka$ python runtests.py
...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 400 tests in 0.230s

OK

Create a super user

(quokka-env)~/quokka-env/quokka$ python manage.py createsuperuser
Name: Input your name
Email: You@You.com
password: ***not1234***

Enjoy!

NOTE: There are make commands available for test: make test, run: make run, shell: make shell

Extending

Quokka tries to implement the Django-ish way to implement quokka-modules it means that you can develop like this:

quokka/modules
│
└── posts
    ├── admin.py  - defines the admin pages
    ├── commands.py - create management commands here
    ├── __init__.py - define module and routes
    ├── models.py - define the Mongo Documents models
    ├── tasks.py - Tasks is for celery tasks
    ├── template_filters.py - Jinja filters
    ├── templates
    │   └── posts
    │       ├── detail.html
    │       └── list.html
    └── static
    └── views.py - module views

Important - read more about developing modules in the docs, to avoid name conflicts your module should follow the naming pattern described in docs.

Installing modules

There is no need to install or include your modules in config files or change quokka code to load the module.

Just drop your module package in quokka/modules restart your server and done!

Quokka admin also provides a web interface for admin-users to install and ENABLE/DISABLE modules.

Admin interface

Admin interface is powered by Flask-Admin customized with access control and theme tweaks.
