Creating a virtual environment for Python

Advance preparation

See here to be able to do the following: ・ Pyenv can be used -You can create a Python virtual environment with pyenv-virtualenv

Create virtual environment

Create a virtual environment for python 3.7.4. The name is "concentratio" because it causes nervous breakdown.

butterthon$ pyenv virtualenv 3.7.4 concentratio

That's all for creating a virtual environment.

Create a Django project

Advance preparation

Create a project root directory and apply the virtual environment.

butterthon$ mkdir workspace #Prepare a workspace
butterthon$ cd workspace
workspace$ mkdir concentratio #Create application root directory in workspace (name is arbitrary)
workspace$ cd concentratio
concentratio $ pyenv local concentratio
(concentratio)concentratio$ python -V
Python 3.7.4

Project creation

concentratio$ django-admin startproject config .

It has the following configuration.

concentratio #Project root directory
├── config #Configuration files are organized under config
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── settings.py
│   ├── urls.py
│   └── wsgi.py
└── manage.py

Check the Django startup screen.

Start the Django server with ｀ python3 manage.py runserver ｀ and access [http: // localhost: 8000](http: // localhost: 8000).

(concentratio)concentratio$ python3 manage.py runserver #Start Django server

Quit the server with CONTROL-C.

It's OK if the screen where the rocket is launching is displayed! !! !!

Install Django Rest Framework

(concentratio)concentratio$ pip install django-rest-framework

After installation, add it to the configuration file.

config/settings.py

.
..
...
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'rest_framework', #add to
]
...
..
.

List API endpoints

config/urls.py

.
..
...
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path
from django.conf.urls import include, url #add to
from rest_framework import routers #add to

ROUTER = routers.DefaultRouter() #add to

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    url('api/', include(ROUTER.urls)), #add to
]

Check if the Django Rest Framework can be started correctly by accessing [http: // localhost: 8000 / api](http: // localhost: 8000 / api)
