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

Activate virtualenv.
```
$ cd /path/to/Tango
$ virtualenv .
```
Run the source script.
```
$ source bin/activate
```
Start the Tango Server.
```
$ python restful-tango/server.py
```
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!

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
```
