Install Django in Ubuntu

Just an easy recap to install django in a standard ubuntu environment:

  1. download the latest stable package from official page
  2. extract the package with: tar -xzvf Django-M.m.r.tar.gz [now: M=1, m=4, r=2]
  3. enter the folder with: cd Django-M.m.r
  4. run the command: sudo python setup.py install

At the end of the installation you can test it opening a python console with:

  • import django
  • django.get_version()
