Deploying Django

My project is responsible for developing an equipment tracking tool with the following requirements.

  • New equipment can be added by the administrator to a specific user.
  • Once the equipment is assigned to a person, he will ask to accept the request so that he is in charge
  • The user can transfer his equipment to other users.
  • At the same time, the administrator should send a mail or message every time the status changes.
  • It needs to be deployed locally on a PC (so it's not actually a web application) that is connected to a network that everyone can access

I thought I could use Django to do this (I'm new to this), but I don't know much about deploying to a local PC, how can I do this, or is there some better idea for this?

It still sounds like you want to use a web application, you just don't intend to deploy it to a traditional web server. One note: client versions of Windows (XP, Vista) limit you to 10 incoming connections per computer.

You should follow these instructions on how to install Django . If you haven't installed python yet, I recommend that you install version 2.5 , as this will include sqlite, an embedded database that makes it very easy to get started with Django. Django includes its own development web server, which you will naturally come across as you walk through the tutorial .



Start with the installation and then go straight to the tutorial. Deployment options will be much easier to understand if you're comfortable with Django.
