# ThrillWiki - Theme Park & Ride Information Platform
|
|
|
|
## Project Overview
|
|
ThrillWiki is a comprehensive Django-based web application for theme park and ride information featuring REST APIs, spatial data support, and comprehensive content management. The platform serves as a database and information system for theme parks, rides, and related content.
|
|
|
|
## Setup Status: ✅ SUCCESSFULLY RUNNING
|
|
|
|
### Current State
|
|
- **Django Server**: Running successfully on port 5000 with HTTP 200 responses
|
|
- **Database**: PostgreSQL configured and all migrations applied
|
|
- **GeoDjango**: Spatial libraries (GDAL/GEOS) properly configured for Nix environment
|
|
- **CloudflareImages**: Avatar functionality preserved and working
|
|
- **Dependencies**: All Python packages installed via UV
|
|
- **Workflow**: Active ThrillWiki Server workflow configured
|
|
- **Deployment**: Production-ready autoscale configuration set up
|
|
|
|
### Technical Configuration
|
|
|
|
#### Environment Setup
|
|
- **Python**: 3.13 with UV package manager
|
|

|
|
- **Spatial Libraries**: GDAL and GEOS configured with correct Nix store paths
|
|
- **Settings**: Local development configuration active
|
|
|
|
#### Database Configuration
|
|
```
|
|
ENGINE: django.contrib.gis.db.backends.postgis
|
|
HOST: PostgreSQL via DATABASE_URL environment variable
|
|
Migrations: All applied successfully (including circular dependency resolution)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Key Packages Installed
|
|
- Django 5.2.6
|
|
- GeoDjango with PostGIS support
|
|
- Django REST Framework
|
|
- Django Allauth (authentication)
|
|
- CloudflareImages Toolkit
|
|
- Django PGHistory
|
|
- Pillow (image processing)
|
|
- And 30+ other dependencies
|
|
|
|
### Architecture Overview
|
|
|
|
#### Apps Structure
|
|
- **accounts**: User management and authentication (with CloudflareImages avatars)
|
|
- **parks**: Theme park information and management
|
|
- **rides**: Ride data and categorization
|
|
- **core**: Shared utilities and services (analytics, page views)
|
|
- **api**: REST API endpoints (v1)
|
|
|
|
#### Major Technical Achievements
|
|
✅ **PostgreSQL Migration**: Successfully migrated from SQLite to PostgreSQL for proper pghistory support
|
|
✅ **GeoDjango Configuration**: GDAL and GEOS libraries properly configured with Nix store paths
|
|
✅ **Circular Dependency Resolution**: Resolved accounts/CloudflareImages dependency cycle using staged migrations
|
|
✅ **Spatial Data Support**: GeoDjango Point objects and spatial functionality working correctly
|
|
✅ **CloudflareImages Integration**: Avatar functionality preserved with proper foreign key relationships
|
|
|
|
### API Endpoints Available
|
|
- `/api/v1/parks/` - Parks API with spatial data
|
|
- `/api/v1/rides/` - Rides API with manufacturer and stats
|
|
- `/api/v1/maps/` - Maps API with spatial features
|
|
- `/api/v1/accounts/` - User accounts and profiles
|
|
- `/admin/` - Django admin interface
|
|
|
|
### Recent Setup Work (September 2025)
|
|
|
|
#### Database Migration Strategy
|
|
1. **Initial Issue**: Circular dependency between `accounts.0001_initial` and `django_cloudflareimages_toolkit.0001_initial`
|
|
2. **Solution**: Split migrations into stages:
|
|
- `accounts.0001_initial`: User models without avatar field
|
|
- `django_cloudflareimages_toolkit.0001_initial`: CloudflareImages setup
|
|
- `accounts.0002_*`: Added avatar field after CloudflareImages ready
|
|
3. **Result**: All migrations applied successfully, no dependency cycles
|
|
|
|
#### Spatial Libraries Configuration
|
|
- **GDAL_LIBRARY_PATH**: `/nix/store/*/lib/libgdal.so`
|
|
- **GEOS_LIBRARY_PATH**: `/nix/store/*/lib/libgeos_c.so`
|
|
- **Status**: Working correctly in all Django settings files
|
|
|
|
#### CloudflareImages Integration
|
|
- **Avatar Field**: Properly configured in UserProfile model
|
|
- **Methods**: get_avatar_url() and get_avatar_variants() working
|
|
- **Fallback**: Default letter-based avatars for users without uploaded images
|
|
|
|
### User Preferences
|
|
- **Environment**: Replit development environment
|
|
- **Database**: PostgreSQL with spatial data support
|
|
- **Port Requirements**: Frontend must run on port 5000
|
|
- **Host Configuration**: Requires 0.0.0.0 binding for Replit access
|
|
- **CloudflareImages**: Keep functionality preserved
|
|
|
|
### Development
|
|
|
|
The application is currently running successfully:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd backend && uv run python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:5000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Status Verification**:
|
|
- Homepage: HTTP 200 responses
|
|
- Database: Parks: 0, Rides: 0 (empty but functional)
|
|
- Models: All importing and working correctly
|
|
- Spatial: GeoDjango Point creation successful
|
|
|
|
### Deployment Configuration
|
|
|
|
**Production Ready**:
|
|
- **Target**: Autoscale deployment (stateless scaling)
|
|
- **WSGI Server**: Gunicorn configured for port 5000
|
|
- **Build Process**: UV package installation with requirements.txt
|
|
- **Database**: PostgreSQL with persistent external state
|
|
- **Images**: CloudflareImages for media handling
|
|
|
|
### Next Steps for Content Population
|
|
1. **Admin Access**: Create superuser account
|
|
2. **Content Import**: Add theme parks and rides data
|
|
3. **API Testing**: Verify all endpoints with real data
|
|
4. **Frontend**: Connect any frontend components if needed
|
|
5. **Production**: Deploy using configured autoscale settings
|
|
|
|
### Development Notes
|
|

|
|
- Comprehensive admin interface configured
|
|
- REST API with proper serialization and filtering
|
|
- Authentication system ready with Django Allauth
|
|
