Graveyard: Place for Dead (and Undead)
Graveyard is an attempt at open-source reimplementation of DraciDoupe.cz (referred to as DDCZ in this text).
Developer's documentation is at Read the Docs.
Production is running at http://nove.dracidoupe.cz/ . But be warned, we are heading for the root domain soon!
Contributions
Contributions are welcome provided you agree your work will be shared under the same license as Graveyard (MIT). Please use black for code formatting.
If you don't know where to start, take a look at the roadmap or ask Almad on development Slack or in Pošta on DraciDoupe.cz.
Please install EditorConfig support for your editor (plugin for VS Code, plugin for PyCharm/WebStorm/IDEAJ)
Installation
You can run Graveyard either directly on your machine or inside Docker. Arm64 systems (like M1 Mac) are supported.
Installing and running Graveyard directly is faster (on some systems) and removes one lever of indirection, but it makes the setup more complicated.
Running in Docker requires familiarity with it, but it makes setup easier and guarantees consistency with the testing environment (and hopefully in the future, production environment as well).
In both cases, first clone this repository and run all commands in its directory.
Installing in Docker
Requirements:
-
You have Docker CE installed
-
You have installed docker-compose
-
Createyour own copy of docker-compose configuration
cp docker-compose.example.yml docker-compose.yml- You can locally change your port if you do not want to run it at 8000
-
Create your own copy of local configuration
cp graveyard/settings/local.example.py graveyard/settings/local.py
Verify you have everything ready by running the test suite:
docker-compose run web python3 manage.py test
If you see output like this:
(graveyard-venv) almad@zeruel:~/projects/graveyard$ docker-compose run web python3 manage.py test
Starting graveyard_db_1 ... done
Creating test database for alias 'default'...
System check identified no issues (0 silenced).
....
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 4 tests in 0.000s
OK
Destroying test database for alias 'default'...
(graveyard-venv) almad@zeruel:~/projects/graveyard$
You are all set. Afterwards, install database schema by running
docker-compose run web python3 manage.py migrate
and load data about pages
docker-compose run web python3 manage.py loaddata pages
You are done! Now you can just run the project and develop using
docker-compose start
Verify your application works and open http://localhost:8000 (localhost may be a different host if you are not working on linux). If so, create yourself a superuser.
For all commands in the manual that ask for python manage.py command, run docker-compose run web python3 manage.py command instead
Installing on your machine
Graveyard is currently written in Django. Requirements to develop it:
- You have working Python 3 installation on your machine
- You have working MySQL installation on your machine
To use the project, clone this repository, enter its directory with cd graveyard and:
- Create a virtual environment:
python3 -m venv gvenv- If this fails and you are on Ubuntu, you may need to
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install python3-pip && sudo pip3 install virtualenv
- If this fails and you are on Ubuntu, you may need to
- Enter it (on Mac OS X or Linux):
source gvenv/bin/activate - Install dependencies within the
pip install -r requirements.txt - Copy settings template:
cp graveyard/settings/local.example.py graveyard/settings/local.py - Edit the settings above, especially enter credentials to your local MySQL (see Stack Overflow on how to do that)
- When creating database, for compatibility, use latin2 as default charset:
CREATE DATABASE dracidoupe_cz DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin2;
- When creating database, for compatibility, use latin2 as default charset:
- Verify you have correct installation and run tests with
python manage.py test. You should see output like this:
(graveyard-venv) almad@zeruel:~/projects/graveyard$ python manage.py test
Creating test database for alias 'default'...
System check identified no issues (0 silenced).

- If you see error like
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH. Please see https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/home, you have to go to the linked page and download the chromedriver to your computer. Place it somewhere in$PATHlike/usr/local/bin - Create the database schema:
python manage.py migrate - Load data about pages to see what's on production:
python manage.py loaddata pages - Run the thing!
python manage.py runserver - Observe if you have contact at
http://localhost:8000
Installing on Windows
Follow the list above, except:
- It is strongly recommended to use Python 3.7 and MySQL 8, otherwise you'll have to compile mysqlclient manually
- Activate virtualenv using
gvenv\Scripts\activateinstaed ofsource gvenv/bin/activate
After Installation
- Load initial version of editorial articles:
python manage.py loaddata editorarticles - Create a superuser for yourself:
python manage.py createsuperuser - Look around the administration interface at
http://localhost:8000/admin/
Installation issues
- Installation failes with "mysql_config not found"
If you get something like this:
File "/tmp/pip-install-wfhe9zue/mysqlclient/setup_posix.py", line 29, in mysql_config
raise EnvironmentError("%s not found" % (_mysql_config_path,))
OSError: mysql_config not found
you may be using MariaDB fork of MySQL that the Python client is not equipped to talk to, installation-wise. You need to manually symlink the appropriate command:
ln -s /usr/bin/mariadb_config /usr/bin/mysql_config
If even mysql_config is not there, you have to install development headers for the database. That's apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev on Debian.
error: invalid command 'bdist_wheel'
Old setuptools: pip install setuptools -U
Setup
Create user account
Use python manage.py registeruser command, see manage.py registeruser --help for parameters.
Debugging with Django Debug Toolbar
pip install django-debug-toolbar==2.2.1- Add to local.py:
from .base import INSTALLED_APPS, MIDDLEWARE
INSTALLED_APPS.append("debug_toolbar")
MIDDLEWARE.insert(
0,
"debug_toolbar.middleware.DebugToolbarMiddleware",
)
INTERNAL_IPS = ["127.0.0.1", "::1"]
