"Buddy", the Django API and Slack Bot

The 2018 implementation of the Buddy API used in a Slack chat with coworkers. Written in Django. Added from USB archives on 2025-04-25.

Project was placed directly in the /root/ folder of a container. The crontab does not have specific instructions on how to start the server, there was likely a service which handled that. My 2025 guess after not using Django for 6 years would be that bin/init_python.sh and bin/init_buddy_walk.sh were run, or at least that is what was used to test locally during development.

Tried getting it to run in order to provide more context in this README as to how the project can be installed and operated, but not looking to set up Django at this time, just going to use the repo as a reference when rewriting in a different language.
