Irvin Naylor (Inactive) added a comment - 26/May/21 5:26 PM - edited As of now, the initial architecture involving the main user-facing screen is now complete with a basic HTML mockup and a form for the user to enter data. That data can now be sent to the next app in the web app's pipeline (the link generator as detailed in Chirag's diagram.) As of now, hitting "Go" on the form will cause a 404 for the moment as the data is not in use yet. However, I think that we are in a good spot to move on with the converter and link generator phases of the app, wherein which the URL entered by the user will be used by the larger app. I've attached a basic screenshot of what should happen when testing the page. Link to my fork: https://bitbucket.org/Inaylor01/track-hub-converter-webapp_dev/src/IGBF-2859/ Testing instructions: After downloading the files, open a bash terminal and cd into the trackhub's igb_trackhub directory enter the command py manage.py runserver Navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8000/trackhub/ The site should now show up. Below I will also be sharing some of the resources that have been pretty helpful to me in learning more about Django, particularly with form processing and HTML Get/Post requests. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/forms/ https://www.tutorialspoint.com/django/django_form_processing.htm https://www.pythoncentral.io/how-to-use-python-django-forms/ https://youtu.be/qDwdMDQ8oX4 (This will be useful for passing data in and out of the webpages displayed to the user)
