<br />

## Manual Build

> 👉 Download the code
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/django-black-dashboard.git
$ cd django-black-dashboard
```

<br />

> 👉 Install modules via `VENV`.

```bash
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
```

<br />

> 👉 Edit the `.env` using the template `.env.sample`.
```env
# True for development, False for production
DEBUG=True
```

<br />

> 👉 Set Up Database
```bash
$ python manage.py makemigrations
$ python manage.py migrate
```

<br />

> 👉 Create the Superuser
```bash
$ python manage.py createsuperuser
```

- 👉 [Django Black Dashboard](https://django-black-dashboard.appseed-srv1.com/) - LIVE Demo
- 👉 [Get Support](https://app-generator.dev/ticket/create/) via Email and Discord

<br />

> 👉 Start the app
```bash
$ python manage.py runserver
```

At this point, the app runs at `http://127.0.0.1:8000/`.

<br />

## Codebase structure

The project is coded using a simple and intuitive structure presented below:

```bash
< PROJECT ROOT >
|
|-- core/
| |-- settings.py # Project Configuration
| |-- urls.py # Project Routing
|
|-- home/
| |-- views.py # APP Views
| |-- urls.py # APP Routing
| |-- models.py # APP Models
| |-- tests.py # Tests
|
|-- requirements.txt # Project Dependencies
|
|-- env.sample # ENV Configuration (default values)
|-- manage.py # Start the app - Django default start script
|
|-- ************************************************************************
```

<br />

## How to Customize

When a template file is loaded in the controller, `Django` scans all template directories starting from the ones defined by the user, and returns the first match or an error in case the template is not found.
The theme used to style this starter provides the following files:

```bash
# This exists in ENV: LIB/admin_black
< UI_LIBRARY_ROOT >
|
|-- templates/ # Root Templates Folder
| |
| |-- accounts/
| | |-- auth-signin.html # Sign IN Page
| | |-- auth-signup.html # Sign UP Page
| |
| |-- includes/
| | |-- footer.html # Footer component
| | |-- sidebar.html # Sidebar component
| | |-- navigation.html # Navigation Bar
| | |-- scripts.html # Scripts Component
| |
| |-- layouts/
| | |-- base.html # Masterpage
| |
| |-- pages/
| |-- dashboard.html # Dashboard page
| |-- user.html # Settings Page
| |-- *.html # All other pages
|
|-- ************************************************************************
```

When the project requires customization, we need to copy the original file that needs an update (from the virtual environment) and place it in the template folder using the same path.

> For instance, if we want to **customize the dashboard.html** these are the steps:
-`Step 1`: create the `templates` DIRECTORY inside the `ROOT` directory
-`Step 2`: configure the project to use this new template directory
- `core/settings.py` TEMPLATES section
-`Step 3`: copy the `dashboard.html` from the original location (inside your ENV) and save it to the `templates` DIR
- Source PATH: `<YOUR_ENV>/LIB/admin_black_pro/pages/dashboard.html`
- Destination PATH: `<PROJECT_ROOT>templates/pages/dashboard.html`

> To speed up all these steps, the **codebase is already configured** (`Steps 1, and 2`) and a `custom dashboard` can be found at this location:
`templates/pages/custom-dashboard.html`

By default, this file is unused because the `theme` expects `dashboard.html` (without the `custom-` prefix).

In order to use it, simply rename it to `dashboard.html`. Like this, the default version shipped in the library is ignored by Django.

In a similar way, all other files and components can be customized easily.

<br />

## Recompile SCSS (separate terminal)

> Tested with Node `v18.20.0`
The SCSS/CSS files used to style the Ui are saved in the `static/assets` directory.
In order to update the Ui colors (primary, secondary) this procedure needs to be followed.

```bash
$ npm # install modules
$ # # edit variables
$ vi static/assets/scss/black-dashboard/custom/_variables.scss
$ npm run dev # SCSS to CSS Development MODE
$ npm run build # SCSS to CSS Production Build
```

The `_variables.scss` content defines the `primary` and `secondary` colors:

```scss
$default: #344675 !default; // EDIT for customization
$primary: #e14eca !default; // EDIT for customization
$secondary: #f4f5f7 !default; // EDIT for customization
$success: #00f2c3 !default; // EDIT for customization
$info: #1d8cf8 !default; // EDIT for customization
$warning: #ff8d72 !default; // EDIT for customization
$danger: #fd5d93 !default; // EDIT for customization
$black: #222a42 !default; // EDIT for customization
```

<br />
