OpenStack Django-Nova
---------------------
The Django-Nova project is a Django module that is used to provide web based
interactions with the OpenStack Nova cloud controller.
There is a reference implementation that uses this module located at:
http://launchpad.net/openstack-dashboard
It is highly recommended that you make use of this reference implementation
so that changes you make can be visualized effectively and are consistent.
Using this reference implementation as a development environment will greatly
simplify development of the django-nova module.
Of course, if you are developing your own Django site using django-nova, then
you can disregard this advice.
Getting Started
---------------
Django-Nova uses Buildout (http://www.buildout.org/) to manage local
development. To configure your local Buildout environment:
$ python bootstrap.py
$ bin/buildout
This will install all the dependencies of django-nova and provide some useful
scripts in the bin/ directory:
bin/python provides a python shell for the current buildout.
bin/django provides django functions for the current buildout.
You should now be able to run unit tests as follows:
$ bin/django test
