Misago

https://travis-ci.org/rafalp/Misago.png?branch=master https://coveralls.io/repos/rafalp/Misago/badge.png?branch=master

Development Status: Pre-Alpha

Misago aims to be complete, featured and modern forum solution that has no fear to say 'NO' to common and outdated opinions about how forum software should be made and what it should do.

If you can run Python apps on your hosting and you are looking for modern solution using latest paradigms in web development, or you are Django developer and forum is going to be core component of your next project then Misago is option for you.

Note about master branch

Master branch currently contains in-development code of next major Misago release, 0.6. If you are looking at running "real" forum on Misago, please use latest 0.5 release instead.

Installing and updating

Please note that master branch is used for project's codebase cleanup and is not functional at the time of writing. If you want to give Misago a spin, feel free to play with one of previous releases.

To start Misago site, first setup and activate virtual environment for it and then fire following commands:

python setup.py install
misago-start.py testforum

This will install Misago in your virtual environment and will make pre-configured Misago site for you named "testforum".

Now cd to "testforum" and edit "settings.py" file in your editor of choice in order to set up basic settings like database connection, default timezone or interface language.

Next, initialize database by using migrate commands provided by manage.py admin utility:

cd testforum
python manage.py migrate

Then, call "createsuperuser" command to create super admin in database:

python manage.py createsuperuser

Finally start development server using "runserver" command:

python manage.py runserver

If nothing is wrong with your setup, developer server will start, enabling you to visit 127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser and see (incomplete) forum index.

Bug reports, features and feedback

If you have found bug, please report it on issue tracker.

For feature or support requests as well as general feedback please use official forum instead. Your feedback means much to the project so please do share your thoughts!

Contributing

If you have fixed spelling mistake, wrote new tests or fixed a bug, feel free to open pull request.

Many issues are open for takers. If you've found one you feel you could take care of, please announce your intent in issue discussion before you start working. That way situations when more than one person works on solving same issue can be avoided.
