Installation

Use the package manager pip to install the prerequisites from the src/requirements.txt file. Using Virtualenv is recommended. See Virtual Environment.

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Create a .env file containing the environment variables in the root directory. You can copy the example.env (make sure you update the secret key):

$ cp example.env .env

User Permissions

In order for permissions to work, add following groups at the admin dashboard. (A superuser does not need to be part of a group as he/she is allowed to do everything)

1. Group - name = "lab_user" (User can do everythin within lab interface)
2. Group - name = "bag_handler" (User can only control the bag handout)

Usage

For testing the application can be started with the command python manage.py runserver:

$ cd covidtest
$ python manage.py runserver
