TODO

This is an MVP alpha version, a lot of functionality needs to be added, such as:

• Implement HTTPS (certbot)
• UI improvements (adding boat pictures, dock location, etc)
• Add detailed instructions and boat descriptions
• Update RentalPrices from JSON
• Add checks and validations
• Notification e-mails (Mailgun)

Deployment process

This was deployed on a Debian 11 server.

Please refer to a guide by Tero Karvinen for detailed explanation of the deployment process.

Make sure to run the app within the virtual environment

First you need to create a new virtualenv and install django

virtualenv --system-site-packages -p python3 env/

--system-site-package uses the packages installed by apt-get whenever possible.

If you don't have a virtualenv installed, you need to install one. On Ubuntu or Debian Linux, you can do it with apt-get

apt-get -y install virtualenv

Start your virtual env

source env/bin/activate

To stop virtualenv

deactivate
