A web app using django framework to manage hotels for different cities.
- The file env
_file in the main directory must be updated with the following environmental variables:- SECRET_KEY (django settings)
- MC_URL (city's url)
- MH_URL (hotel's url)
- M_USERNAME (api username)
- M_PASSWORD (api password)
- Install docker-compose
The file must be in the root of project (/github/workflows/django.yml)
The action is triggered on every push to master by checking if the code passes the tests
docker-compose up
It starts all the services (django application, redis, celery)
By typing docker exec -it django_container /bin/bash, the user can have access to the django container in order to do the following:
- Run tests
python manage.py test - Create a superuser (needed in order to have access to the admin panel and for creating a manager)
python manage.py createsuperuser
-
Daily_job
Using celery and redis as a message broker, the application has a task which fetches the csv data from the server every day at 06:00 UTC. This data is used to update the database with the cities and the hotels. -
Search for a city
The home page of the application is used to search for a city and shows all the cities and their hotels. -
Admin panel (admin user needs to be created)
The administrator page gives us access to all models (cities, hotels, users, managers) and we can make crud operations. -
Manager interface (needs a staff user)
A manager can have access to the manager interface and update only the hotels of his/her city. In order to have access we need to do the following:-
create a group managers
-
create a user (staff status) and add him/her in managers group
-
apply user crud permissions (add, change, delete, view)
-
add the user to the managers table by choosing the city in which he/she belongs to
-
the user can have access to the hotels via the /managers/ endpoint
