# README.md Update - Development Environment Setup
|
|
**Date**: 2025-07-02
|
|
**Status**: ✅ COMPLETED
|
|
|
|
## Task Summary
|
|
Updated the README.md file to ensure it's fully accurate with the current project configuration and development environment setup instructions.
|
|
|
|
## Key Issues Identified and Fixed
|
|
|
|
### 1. Database Configuration Clarity
|
|
**Issue**: The README mentioned updating the database HOST but didn't specify the current setting.
|
|
**Fix**: Added explicit mention that current HOST is `"192.168.86.3"` and needs to be changed to `"localhost"` for local development.
|
|
|
|
### 2. GeoDjango Library Paths
|
|
**Issue**: Library paths were mentioned generically without specifying current configuration.
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Documented current macOS Homebrew paths in settings.py
|
|
- Added Linux-specific path examples
|
|
- Enhanced troubleshooting with additional find commands for `/opt` directory
|
|
|
|
### 3. Migration Setup Note
|
|
**Issue**: No guidance on database configuration before running migrations.
|
|
**Fix**: Added explicit note to update database HOST before running migrations for local development.
|
|
|
|
## Changes Made
|
|
|
|
### Database Setup Section (Lines 115-130)
|
|
```markdown
|
|
**Important**: Update the `HOST` setting in [`thrillwiki/settings.py`](thrillwiki/settings.py) to match your PostgreSQL server location:
|
|
- Use `"localhost"` or `"127.0.0.1"` for local development
|
|
- Current setting is `"192.168.86.3"` - update this to your PostgreSQL server IP
|
|
- For local development, change to `"localhost"` in settings.py
|
|
|
|
### 4. Database Migration
|
|
...
|
|
**Note**: If you're setting up for local development, first update the database HOST in [`thrillwiki/settings.py`](thrillwiki/settings.py) from `"192.168.86.3"` to `"localhost"` before running migrations.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### GeoDjango Requirements Section (Lines 302-306)
|
|
```markdown
|
|
### GeoDjango Requirements
|
|
- GDAL and GEOS libraries must be properly installed
|
|
- Library paths are configured in [`thrillwiki/settings.py`](thrillwiki/settings.py) for macOS Homebrew
|
|
- Current paths: `/opt/homebrew/lib/libgdal.dylib` and `/opt/homebrew/lib/libgeos_c.dylib`
|
|
- May need adjustment based on your system's library locations (Linux users will need different paths)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting Section (Lines 319-334)
|
|
```markdown
|
|
2. **GDAL/GEOS Library Not Found**
|
|
```bash
|
|
# macOS (Homebrew): Current paths in settings.py
|
|
GDAL_LIBRARY_PATH = "/opt/homebrew/lib/libgdal.dylib"
|
|
GEOS_LIBRARY_PATH = "/opt/homebrew/lib/libgeos_c.dylib"
|
|
|
|
# Linux: Update paths in settings.py to something like:
|
|
# GDAL_LIBRARY_PATH = "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgdal.so"
|
|
# GEOS_LIBRARY_PATH = "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgeos_c.so"
|
|
|
|
# Find your library locations
|
|
find /usr -name "libgdal*" 2>/dev/null
|
|
find /usr -name "libgeos*" 2>/dev/null
|
|
find /opt -name "libgdal*" 2>/dev/null
|
|
find /opt -name "libgeos*" 2>/dev/null
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Verification Completed
|
|
|
|
### Project Configuration Verified
|
|
- ✅ **Package Manager**: UV confirmed (uv.lock file present)
|
|
- ✅ **Database Engine**: PostGIS confirmed in settings.py
|
|
- ✅ **GeoDjango Libraries**: macOS Homebrew paths confirmed in settings.py
|
|
- ✅ **Development Commands**: All UV-based commands verified in .clinerules
|
|
|
|
### README Accuracy Confirmed
|
|
- ✅ **Technology Stack**: Accurate (Django 5.0+, HTMX, Alpine.js, Tailwind CSS, PostgreSQL/PostGIS)
|
|
- ✅ **Package Management**: UV correctly documented throughout
|
|
- ✅ **Database Setup**: Current configuration accurately reflected
|
|
- ✅ **Development Workflow**: Critical commands properly documented
|
|
- ✅ **Troubleshooting**: Enhanced with current system-specific information
|
|
|
|
## Current Project State
|
|
The README.md now provides:
|
|
1. **Accurate Setup Instructions**: Reflects actual project configuration
|
|
2. **Clear Database Configuration**: Explicit guidance for local vs remote setup
|
|
3. **Platform-Specific Guidance**: macOS and Linux library path examples
|
|
4. **Enhanced Troubleshooting**: More comprehensive library location commands
|
|
5. **Development Workflow**: Proper UV-based command patterns
|
|
|
|
## Next Steps
|
|
The README.md is now fully up to date and ready for developers to use for environment setup. No further updates needed unless project configuration changes. |
