Setup ===== If you haven't already, start by downloading Overseer. The easiest way is with *pip*:: pip install overseer --upgrade Or with *setuptools*:: easy_install -U overseer Once installed, you're going to need to configure a basic Django project. You can either use Overseer within your existing project, or base it on the provided shell in ``example_project``. Existing Project ---------------- To use it within an existing project, adjust the following in ``settings.py``:: INSTALLED_APPS = ( ... 'overseer', ) You'll also need to include the appropriate ``urls.py``:: urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'^status', include('overseer.urls', namespace='overseer')), ) New Project ----------- Simple copy the ``example_project`` directory included with the package, and adjust ``settings.py` as needed. You may now continue to :doc:`config` for configuration options.
