Django DIY Blog

Basic blog site written in Django (part of MDN Django module assessment)

This web application creates an very basic blog site using Django. The site allows blog authors to create text-only blogs using the Admin site, and any logged in user to add comments via a form. Any user can list all bloggers, all blogs, and detail for bloggers and blogs (including comments for each blog).

The models for this site are as shown below:

For more information see the associated MDN assessment page.

Quick Start

To get this project up and running locally on your computer:

1. Set up the Python development environment. We recommend using a Python virtual environment.
2. Assuming you have Python setup, run the following commands (if you're on Windows you may use py or py -3 instead of python3 to start Python):

   pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   python3 manage.py makemigrations
   python3 manage.py migrate
   python3 manage.py collectstatic
   python3 manage.py test # Run the standard tests. These should all pass.
   python3 manage.py createsuperuser # Create a superuser
   python3 manage.py runserver
   

3. Open a browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ to open the admin site
4. Create a few test objects of each type.
5. Open tab to http://127.0.0.1:8000 to see the main site, with your new objects.

I see no virtualenv nor any requirements.txt file.

Why Foreign Key in user in BlogAuthor?

Hello! I am new to Django and I am trying to finish the Django assessment. In file blog/models.py line 15, the code is:

user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True)

for the class BlogAuthor.

However, I believe the relationship should be OneToOneField. Only one User should map to one BlogAuthor and this should be true for the converse relation. One User cannot be many BlogAuthors. Right?

Making comments without being a an authenticated user.

The BlogComment model class being related to "User" means that only authenticated users can comment to a blog right??

How to do a registration form?

How to do a registration form? Im new at django and I will be glad to see a registration function in this project.

CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file missing

As of January 1 2019, Mozilla requires that all GitHub projects include this CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file in the project root. The file has two parts:

1. Required Text - All text under the headings Community Participation Guidelines and How to Report, are required, and should not be altered.
2. Optional Text - The Project Specific Etiquette heading provides a space to speak more specifically about ways people can work effectively and inclusively together. Some examples of those can be found on the Firefox Debugger project, and Common Voice. (The optional part is commented out in the raw template file, and will not be visible until you modify and uncomment that part.)

If you have any questions about this file, or Code of Conduct policies and procedures, please see Mozilla-GitHub-Standards or email [email protected].
