SQUAD is a Django application and works just like any other Django application. If you are new to Django and want to setup a development environment, you can follow the instructions below. If you want to install SQUAD for production usage, see :ref:`production_install_ref_label` instead.
Note that SQUAD is Python3-only, so it won't work with Python 2.
Before moving on, there's a system dependency needed for Python to load yaml content with the C library, install it with:
apt-get install libyaml-dev
To install the dependencies:
pip3 install -r requirements-dev.txt
Alternatively to using pip, on Debian stretch or later you can install dependencies from the repository:
apt-get install python3-dateutil python3-django python3-celery \ python3-django-celery python3-jinja2 python3-whitenoise python3-zmq
To run the tests:
./manage.py test
Before running the application, create the database and an admin user for yourself:
./manage.py migrate ./manage.py createsuperuser
To run the application locally:
./manage.py runserver
