Setup Instructions

Install the package

pip install alert360

Start a Django project

django-admin startproject djangoproject

Add the app to INSTALLED_APPS

INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'django_ace',
'alert360',
...
]

Create a python file in which you can write your own actions that will be triggered when the state changes

actions.py
from alert360.actions import ActionsManager

@ActionsManager.add_handler
def print_changes(changes):
print("Some changes occured")
print(changes)

In the above code we declared our own custom function print_changes which will be called whenever the state changes and it will print the summary of changes.
However, there's one more step left to connect this function to the ActionsManager

In the __init__.py file in the folder in which we created actions.py add the following line

from . import actions

Now run database migrations and create a superuser so you can access the admin website

python manage.py migrate
python manage.py createsuperuser

Now Login to the adminwebsite, connect a database, and create a new StateWatcher
