Running Tango

Introduction

This is a guide to starting the Tango server. If you have yet to set up Tango itself, please see the guide on Setting up Tango first.

Instructions

1. Activate virtualenv.

   $ cd /path/to/Tango
   $ virtualenv .
   $ source bin/activate

2. Start the Tango Server.

   $ python restful-tango/server.py

3. Make sure Tango is up and running. The default port that Tango starts with is 3000, although this can be changed in config.py.

   $ curl localhost:<port>

The response should be:

```sh
Hello, world! RESTful Tango here!
```

4. When finished with your Tango session, kill the Tango server. Python catches Ctrl-C, so you'll need to use Ctrl-Z followed by kill %1 instead. Then, deactivate virtualenv on the command-line:

   deactivate
