Labs A and B: Django and Django REST

Django is a Python-based free and open-source web framework, which follows the model-template-view architectural pattern.

In this lab we will be downloading Django and Django REST framework using the following commands:

$ pip3 -V

$ sudo pip3 install -U setuptools

$ sudo pip3 install -U django

$ sudo pip3 install -U djangorestframework

$ sudo pip3 install -U django-filter

$ sudo pip3 install -U markdown

$ sudo pip3 install -U requests

In the next part of the lab, I will be installing MariaDB server and client.

MariaDB Connector/Python enables python programs to access MariaDB and MySQL databases, using an API which is compliant with the Python DB API 2.0 (PEP-249). It is written in C and uses MariaDB Connector/C client library for client server communication.

Following commands were entered:

$ sudo apt update

$ sudo apt install mariadb-server mariadb-client

$ sudo apt install python3-mysqldb

$ sudo pip3 install -U mysqlclient

$ sudo mysql_secure_installation

Process and system utilities installation:

$ sudo pip3 install -U psutil
