This repository will not be updated. The repository will be kept available in read-only mode.

We have applications available forNode.js Express,Go Gin,Python Flask,Python Django,Java Spring,Java Liberty,Swift Kitura,Android, andiOS.

In this sample application, you will create a web application using Django to serve web pages in Python, complete with standard best practices, including a health check.

This app contains an opinionated set of files for web serving:

• app/templates/index.html
• staticfiles/js/bundle.js
• staticfiles/css/default.css

IBM Cloud DevOps services provides toolchains as a set of tool integrations that support development, deployment, and operations tasks inside IBM Cloud.

To get started building this application locally, you can either run the application natively or use theIBM Cloud Developer Tools for containerization and easy deployment to IBM Cloud.

• InstallPython

Running Django applications has been simplified with amanage.py file to avoid dealing with configuring environment variables to run your app. From your project root, you can download the project dependencies with:

pipenv install

Then, activate this app's virtualenv:

pipenv shell

To run your application locally, run this inside the virtualenv:

python manage.py start

Your application will be running athttp://localhost:3000. You can access the/health endpoint at the host. You can also verify the state of your locally running application using the Selenium UI test script included in thescripts directory.

To debug adjango project runpython manage.py runserver with DEBUG set to True insettings.py to start a native django development server. This comes with the Django's stack-trace debugger, which will present runtime failure stack-traces. For more information, seeDjango's documentation.

InstallIBM Cloud Developer Tools on your machine by running the following command:

curl -sL https://ibm.biz/idt-installer | bash

Create an application on IBM Cloud by running:

ibmcloud dev create

This will create and download a starter application with the necessary files needed for local development and deployment.

Your application will be compiled with Docker containers. To compile and run your app, run:

ibmcloud dev buildibmcloud dev run

This will launch your application locally. When you are ready to deploy to IBM Cloud on Kubernetes, run one of the commands:

ibmcloud dev deploy -t container // to K8s cluster

You can build and debug your app locally with:

ibmcloud dev build --debugibmcloud dev debug
