django-helpdesk was formerly known as Jutda Helpdesk, named after the
|
|
company which originally created it. As of January 2011 the name has been
|
|
changed to reflect what it really is: a Django-powered ticket tracker with
|
|
contributors reaching far beyond Jutda.
|
|
|
|
Complete documentation is available in the docs/ directory,
|
|
or online at http://django-helpdesk.readthedocs.org/.
|
|
|
|
You can see a demo installation at http://django-helpdesk-demo.herokuapp.com/,
|
|
or run a demo locally in just a couple steps!

Licensing
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
django-helpdesk is licensed under terms of the BSD 3-clause license.
|
|
See the file 'LICENSE' for full licensing terms.
|
|
|
|
Note that django-helpdesk is distributed with 3rd party products which
|
|
have their own licenses. See LICENSE.3RDPARTY for license terms for
|
|
included packages.
|
|
|
|
Demo Quickstart
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
django-helpdesk includes a basic demo Django project so that you may easily
|
|
get started with testing or developing django-helpdesk. The demo project
|
|
resides in the demo/ top-level folder.
|
|
|
|
It's likely that you can start up a demo project server by running
|
|
only the command:
|
|
|
|
sudo make rundemo
|
|
|
|
then pointing your web browser at localhost:8080.
|
|
|
|
For more information and options, please read the demo/README.rst file.
|
|
|
|
**NOTE REGARDING SQLITE AND SEARCHING:**
|
|
The demo project uses sqlite as its database. Sqlite does not allow
|
|
case-insensitive searches and so the search function may not work as
|
|
effectively as it would on other database such as PostgreSQL or MySQL
|
|
that does support case-insensitive searches.
|
|
For more information, see this note in the Django documentation:
|
|
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/databases/#sqlite-string-matching
|
|
|
|
When you try to do a keyword search using sqlite, a message will be displayed
|
|
to alert you to this shortcoming. There is no way around it, sorry.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
django-helpdesk requires either Python 2.7 or 3.4+, as well as Django 1.8+.
|
|
The recommended combination is Python 3.4+ with Django 1.10.
|
|
|
|
You can quickly install the latest stable version of django-helpdesk app via pip:
|
|
|
|
pip install django-helpdesk
|
|
|
|
You may also check out the master branch on GitHub, and install manually:
|
|
|
|
python setup.py install
|
|
|
|
Either way, you will need to add django-helpdesk to an existing Django project.
|
|
|
|
For further installation information see docs/install.html and docs/configuration.html
|
|
|
|
Upgrading from previous versions
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you are upgrading from a previous version of django-helpdesk that used
|
|
migrations, get an up to date version of the code base (eg by using
|
|
`git pull` or `pip install --upgrade django-helpdesk`) then migrate the database::
|
|
|
|
python manage.py migrate helpdesk --db-dry-run # DB untouched
|
|
python manage.py migrate helpdesk
|
|
|
|
Lastly, restart your web server software (eg Apache) or FastCGI instance, to
|
|
ensure the latest changes are in use.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately we are unable to assist if you are upgrading from a
|
|
version of django-helpdesk prior to migrations (ie pre-2011).
|
|
|
|
You can continue to the 'Initial Configuration' area, if needed.
