Re: [Mailman-Developers] [GSoC 2014] Cordova/Android App for GNU Mailman Admin Interface
Hi
I hope my mail hasn't missed your attention. I would be very much obliged if someone could answer this question so that I can go ahead and write proposal.
Thanks

Hello
I have gone through the Admin interface and all functions that can be achieved with the REST API. I intend to have a login screen where a user can enter URL for the REST API endpoint, REST Username and password. We will use this to subsequent authenticate all requests made to fetch subscribers list, domains list, etc.
I was wondering if I could get some feedback on this. I will start writing my proposal based on this starting point and list out what all I would features I would be implementing during the period of GSoC.
Regards

Thanks. I would have probably missed it out the first time. I will go through the web UI and also the documentation of REST API to understand what all functions need to be implemented in the admin interface for a user.

Hi,
You will be asked for the create user prompt only the first time you run syncdb.That's why you don't see it now.
Once the DB is created, only new tables, specified via django models, get added to DB during the syncdb.

Hi Rajeev
I wasn't asked if I wanted to create a super user when I executed python manage.py syncdb. This was the output I got with syncdb: Creating tables... Installing Custome SQL... Installing indexes... Installed 0 object(s) from 0 fixture(s)
I tried python manage.py createsuperuser and was able to login with details I provided there.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Bhargav,
You will be asked whether to *add a superuser* during *syncdb*. If you answered no to that, do *python manage.py createsuperuser * and use that username and password to login.

Hi Abhilash
If you mean the last step of installation where we do cd postorius_standalone;python manage.py syncdb, I wasn't asked for any username/password. I checked the settings.py and it doesn't have any specific default username/password.
And the http://localhost:8001/3.0 worked for me.
