Project Enigma

Django-based blog site

Installation

Create .env file in the root of the project where manage.py is located and set the following variables:

(Without DJANGO_DEBUG=True static files will not be loaded)

EMAIL_SYSTEM_EMAIL="your@email.com"
EMAIL_SYSTEM_PASSWORD="your_password"
SECRET_KEY="secret_key"
DJANGO_DEBUG=True

These variables are optional, but EMAIL_SYSTEM_EMAIL and EMAIL_SYSTEM_PASSWORD is required for password restore functionality. Email system would work only for GMail with created password for specific app.
