Installation

Requirements

django-shortwave requires Python 2.4 or newer and a functional installation of Django 1.2 or newer. Further, the Django admin must be installed. (It most likely is.)

The Package

To install this package, run the following command at the root of the package directory:

python setup.py install

If you have the Python pip utility available, you can also type the following to download and install in one step:

pip install django-shortwave

Or if you prefer using easy_install:

easy_install django-shortwave

Or if you’d prefer you can simply place the included shortwave directory somewhere on your Python path, or symlink to it from somewhere on your Python path; this is useful if you’re working from a Git checkout. (Source code is on GitHub.)

You can now install the app in your Django project.

The App

First, add shortwave to your INSTALLED_APPS setting:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    …
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'shortwave',
    …
)

Next, add shortwave.urls to your urlpatterns:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    …
    (r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
    (r'^shortwave/', include('shortwave.urls')),
    …
)

Finally, add the appropriate tables to your database by running the Django syncdb management command.
