Coátl (snake in  náhuatl) is a Web Portal Community using Django framework.

Este es un proyecto para desarrollar un CMS e Intranet portal en Django.

Coátl Quick Start (on Debian-like systems)

1) Get the packages

$sudo apt-get install subversion sqlite3 python-pysqlite2 python-libgmail

2) Get the code

$svn co  http://svn.assembla.com/svn/coatl/trunk/ coatl

3) Create database

$cd coatl/db && sqlite3 DBCOATL.db &

4) in coatl/ dir create localsettings.py file with the next content: 

import os
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
PROJECT_DIR = BASE_DIR + '/db'
DATABASE_NAME = os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR, 'DBCOATL.db') # I'm using sqlite3!!                                                              
DATABASE_USER = ''             # Not used with sqlite3.                                                                                    
DATABASE_PASSWORD = ''         # Not used with sqlite3.                                                                                    
DATABASE_HOST = ''             # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3.                                                 
DATABASE_PORT = ''             # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3.

Save and close.

5) Syncronize database

$python manage.py syncdb

To the question:

You just installed Django's auth system, which means you don't have any superusers defined. Would you like to create one now?

Answer 'yes' and fill data.

6) Run server

$python manage.py runserver

7) Load in your browser  http://localhost:8000/

8) Access admin section to insert blog entries

Thats it by now.

 Django book is a good place to start.

Enjoy!
