Goal

Build out Django Models for our different apps (accounts, bets, fighters, and fights)

Notes

Yesterday I built out some of the Django Models for the Fighters App. I registered my current models to my fighters/admin.py via the lines

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import Fighter, Cosmetic

# Register your models here.
admin.site.register(Fighter)
admin.site.register(Cosmetic)

Which made them accessible via the admin page.

I decided to try running this again with Docker and found that I needed to re-build my requirements.txt file, then re-build the Docker Image using docker build . . This still didn't work, so I found I needed to delete the Docker Image in the Docker Desktop App, then re-build it for it to work.

I had to re-run my Database Migrations via docker-compose exec web python manage.py makemigrations

Results

• Established usable Django Models for the Fighters App that included cosmetics and fighter stats
  • Added these models to the app
• Switched fighter stats to a JSON object type storage so that it only needs to access the db once to get all of the fighter's stats

Next Time

• Hook up media storage to S3 so that cosmetic / fighter images can be used
