Django CMS Sample
A simple Django CMS site based on the installation tutorial.
Running locally
The project.db SQLite database will be used if no VCAP_SERVICES environment
variable is set with PostgreSQL database connection information. A superuser
for the site is already configured (username:admin password:admin) .
Pushing to Cloud Foundry
The demo will work in Cloud Foundry using the local (but non-persistent) SQLite database without any further configuration:
$ cd djangocms
$ cf push ...
To deploy something more useful and robust, create a PostgreSQL backing
service, then uncomment the services block in manifest.yml. Make sure the
service name matches the service you have created. The cf push command should
automatically bind the app to the service instance.
Setup
Before you can use the site, you must run the database migration. Using the cf run-task command is the easiest way to do this:
$ cf run-task djangocms "python manage.py migrate" --name migrate
To create the initial superuser for the site, use cf ssh to run the
createsuperuer script.
$ cf ssh djangocms
bash-4.3$ /tmp/lifecycle/shell # loads app python env
bash-4.3$ python manage.py createsuperuser
...
When the first admin user has been created, you can start using Django CMS.
