How to setup 1.1 version of django?

Question

I wanna read a book in django caled "Practical Django projects second edition", but it is outdated as the version of django used in the book was 1.1. I really wanna read this book because it really fits my needs as i working on a project with the same theme, but i have no idea how to run the examples or use django 1.1. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

you can install any version of Django, just use below practice to do that. Create virtual environment for it, and install any version you want like.

pip install django==x.y.z

or using easy_install

easy_install django==x.y.z

if you are new with Django, then I will recommend you to try newest/current version.
