Step by step with django-jet-demo

Question

I am trying to see django-jet-demo in action, i.e. https://github.com/geex-arts/django-jet-demo, but It didn't work.

• git clone https://github.com/geex-arts/django-jet-demo.git
• mkvirtualenv venv
• cd django-jet-demo
• pip install -r requirements/base.txt
• django makemigrations

I have the errors

1- configparser.NoSectionError: No section: 'common'

If I remove config.get(..., 'common') inside application/settings.py

2- configparser.NoSectionError: No section: 'email'

If I remove config.get(..., 'email') inside application/settings.py

3- configparser.NoSectionError: No section: 'database'

How could I fix this problem? What are the steps to make django-jet-demo works? Does it work well on your computer?

UPDATE

If I modify default.conf file, I got the same first error.

[common]
secret_key='t_g&c7^(!jb*$caaeue%$t_0pdtx5z(a7v%b6#svl1&0$5h9o-'
debug=False

[email]
[email protected]
host=localhost
port=1025
user=
password=
tls=True

[database]
ENGINE=django.db.backends.mysql
NAME=capitaine
USER=root
PASSWORD=wd9598%%DD
HOST='localhost'
PORT=3306

Answer 1

There is a file named default.conf where the values of each section are empty and you should add appropriate values for at least secret_key, server_email and the [database] section.

If you don't want to use mysql as the db backend, use sqlite instead (without the need of NAME, USER, PASSWORD etc).

Also note that you have to create this .conf file under the path:

/path/to/project/conf/project_name.conf

Of course, change project_name to your actual project's name.
