feat(settings.py, .env, README.md): Collecting data from .env files
Fixes #25 (closed)
Short description of what this resolves:
Earlier the database credentials were edited in settings.py which caused tracking problem with git. Also, its not a good practice to hardcode credentials. I've added functionality to pick them from .env file and added a .env.example file to create your own env file.
Changes proposed in this pull request:
- Added .env.example
- Documentation for creating .env file
- Added .env and virtual environments in gitignore
- Collecting Database credentials from .env
