How to setup the project

python -m virtualenv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt

How to run the microservice:

cd django_sando_box_api python manage.py migrate python manage.py runserver

creating a new user for the application

python manage.py createsuperuser

For production:

• remove the secret key from settings and use environment variables to it not be available via repository, use something to encrypt the settings to load before the runserver

• reconfigure the database to a more secure one, in this project we are using sqlite, it would be better to use a postgres or other relational database

testing the api in a python terminal

>>> import requests
>>> requests.get('http://localhost:8000/aec/api/v1/')
>>> res = requests.post('http://localhost:8000/aec/api/v1/signin', data={'username':'admin','password':'admin'})
>>> token = res.json()['token']
>>> requests.get('http://localhost:8000/aec/api/v1/user_info', headers={'Authorization': f'Token {token}'})
