This is a fork of the django-layout repo by lincolnloop <http://github.com/lincolnloop/django-layout> modified to my preferences and my continue to evolve.
django-layout provides sane defaults for new Django projects based on established best practices. To use django-layout run the following command:
django-admin.py startproject --template=https://github.com/ernestjumbe/django-layout/zipball/master --extension=py,rst,gitignore,example project_name
Note
The text following this comment block will become the README.rst of the new project.
To bootstrap the project:
virtualenv {{ project_name }}
source {{ project_name }}/bin/activate
cd path/to/{{ project_name }}/repository
pip install -r requirements.pip
pip install -e .
cp {{ project_name }}/settings/local.py.example {{ project_name }}/settings/local.py
manage.py syncdb --migrate
Developer documentation is available in Sphinx format in the docs directory.
Initial installation instructions (including how to build the documentation as HTML) can be found in docs/install.rst.
