Couldn't set up local environment

[Mariatta]

Hello,

I followed instructions to set up python dot org locally as described in this page:
https://pythondotorg.readthedocs.io/install.html

Since I was not familiar with Vagrant, I skipped that part and went with the instructions under Manual Setup heading. (Perhaps I should not have done that?)

These were my steps:

git clone git://github.com/python/pythondotorg.git
cd pythondotorg
python3.4 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
python3.4 pip install -r dev-requirements.txt

At this point I saw an error related to uWSGI.

Here is a snippet of the error:

Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): oauthlib>=0.6.2 in /usr/local/lib/python3.4/site-packages (from requests-oauthlib>=0.3.0->django-allauth==0.22.0->-r requirements.txt (line 40))

... some really long message or stack trace of some sort... and then:

I'm using Macbook OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

It was suggested by @berkerpeksag that I comment out uWSGI from requirements.txt file.
After this, the installation was successful, and I was able to continue with the rest to get my local env running locally.

I'm creating this ticket as per suggestion of @MarkMangoba 😃

I'm really interested to help contributing to this project. If there is anything that I can do about this, be it testing, or updating documentation, please just let me know 👋

Hi @Mariatta,

The following dependencies are only required in production:

uWSGI==2.0.10
raven==5.2.0

And the following dependency is required in development environment:

django-debug-toolbar==1.2.2

I think the next steps would be the following:

1. move django-debug-toolbar to dev-requirements.txt

2. move uwsgi and raven to prod-requreimets.txt

3. move other dependencies in requrements.txt to base-requirements.txt

4. make requirements.txt behave like a factory function:

   -r base-requirements.txt
   -r prod-requirements.txt
   

5. add -r base-requirements.txt to dev-requirements.txt

You may find #985 interesting to work on :)
