It's easy Django application.
For debug purposes just run python3 app/manage.py runserver.
Warning: in this case scoreboards and static task files are not served correctly.
To use scoreboards, just change their directory to app/tasks/static/boards and they will be served to /static/boards/, not just /boards/.
Static task files cannot be served in this mode, please don't use attachments field and everything will be OK.
In production, I created docker-compose configuration.
touch db.sqlite3
python3 app/manage.py collectstatic
docker-compose up --build -d
Why do we need first line? Otherwise, docker will think that db.sqlite3 is name of shared directory, not file.
In nginx-platform.conf there is example config of my webserver on host machine from Ugra CTF 2018. Also you can create docker container which will manage port 443 (or any other you want), but I don't prefer it because I serve many applications on the same server.
Nginx server handles TLS certificate, serves static scoreboard, static files from app/static/ and task static files from ${TASKS_DIR}/${TASK_NAME}/public/.
All platform configuration is in app/ctfboard/config.py. You can find many useful (or not?) options there.
You won't find any tables in fresh database. So please run migrations:
python3 app/manage.py migrate
To add teams and see flags there's Django default admin panel. Run this command to create admin account:
python3 app/manage.py createsuperuser
Then sign in to https://url.com/admin/.
Tasks are declarative. You need just to pull your GitHub repo with tasks and you're all set up.
Get acknowledged with task layout description.
