Quick Start

Basic steps on setting up the dashboard for your own LAN

1. Clone the repository or download the source code from the latest release. This can be done a few ways as stated below:
   1. Use command line tools to clone the repo, git clone https://www.github.com/twosails/WeatherDashboard.git
   2. Download the file from the master branch or other version branches to get specific features. This can be done by clicking the green code button in the top right corner.
   3. Download source code .zip from the latest release.
2. Navigate into the cloned repo ‘cd WeatherDashboard’, and then install the requirements by using the command: python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt This should install all required dependencies, but if a ModuleNotFoundError occurs, open an issue and manually install the library/module
3. Migrate the Django app to make sure that the changes are applied to the app, use the command: python3 manage.py migrate
4. Create a SuperUser to access the Django Admin page, use python3 manage.py createsuperuser

The configuration is required for an error to not occur when loading into the dashbaord page. Configuration can be done by manually editing the config file in WeatherDashboard/weatherapp/util/config.yml Or it can be configured n the Django Admin Page, requiring a restart to apply changes

7. You are now able to run the server and/or host it. This can be done by the command python3 manage.py runserver
8. Ensure that the config has been configured in order for the app to work
