This project was a KTH assignment for Modern Methods of Software Engineering. It models the workflow of an imaginary event-planning company "SEP". Specifically, it shows the basic workflows of

1. Customer service officers, taking bookings ("event request applications") from a client
2. Senior customer sevice officers and administration manager that approve the event bookings
3. Financial managers that
   • approves these bookings
   • approves budget requests
4. Staff managers, that
   • creates budget requests
   • create subteam tasks
   • create staff requests
5. HR managers that view staff requests

1. Install Python 3.7.4

2. Setup virtual environment in folder venv/

   cd path/to/project
   python3 -m venv venv

3. Start using python distribution of venv

   source bin/activate

   Check which python/pip is being used by doing

   which pip
   # or
   which python

4. Install all requirements into venv

   pip install -r requirements.txt

In case a new database should be used, be sure to initialize it properly:

1. Execute migrations

   python manage.py migrate

2. Initialize data

   python manage.py shell_plus < sep/create_user_groups.py

   This could have been done better by writing the file into migrations. shell_plus is part of django-extensions which executes a Python shell that uses the Django Project as a environment. A super user would have to be created manually however. See Django Docs for that.

Running this project will be fairly straightfoward.

1. Start project (using python from /venv)

   python manage.py runserver 0:8001

2. Visit localhost:8001/sep/home

3. Login with
