Overview

This page documents the initial stages of Python development on the i. It is meant to be a running log of notes rather than a structured article as there is a lot of trial-and-error during this stage.

Notes

General

  • On the IFS, /uwdsrc was created to be the root folder for further development.
  • Krengeltech remains the best candidate as a 'Professional Services/Development Team', as they specialize in 5733-OPS, and have a close relationship with IBM in this area.
  • Bitbucket and GitHub repos were created, but BitBucket will likely prevail as they offer free private repos (they're also preferred by Krengeltech for this reason).
  • git is installed on the i, and connections to Bitbucket and GitHub have been established i.e. /uwdsrc syncs to bitbucket.org:norwinu/uwdsrc.git


Python

  • Python 3 is installed through 5733-OPS Option 2. The current version is 3.4.4 (-~~)

Django

  • Django 1.7 is verified to be the most workable version. 1.8 is supposed to be supported
  • Bitbucket
