# Photowall API 2
|
|
|
|
Provides a REST API to Photowall database.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Make sure that your system has Python version 3.4 installed. If you dont have it here is how you install it on Ubuntu 12.04:
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fkrull/deadsnakes
|
|
$ sudo apt-get update
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install python3.4 python3.4-dev build-essential
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next its recommended that you create a [virtualenv](http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/) of python 3.4 and install all packages in it.
|
|
To do that execute the following commands in your project folder:
|
|
```
|
|
$ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.4 venv
|
|
$ source venv/bin/activate
|
|
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
