1. Firstly, make sure all the relevant modules installed.

You'd better use [virtualenv](https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/) to create a isolated python environments, and then use pip to install all the requirements.

pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Do some custom configure in `config.py`, have a glance as followers:

# flask config
SECRET_KEY = os.environ.get('SECRET_KEY') or '!@#$%^&*12345678'
# Config about senting email.
MAIL_SERVER = 'smtp.qq.com'
MAIL_PORT = 465
MAIL_USE_SSL = True
MAIL_USERNAME = os.environ.get('MAIL_USERNAME')
MAIL_PASSWORD = os.environ.get('MAIL_PASSWORD')
FORUM_MAIL_SUBJECT_PREFIX = 'NaHan'
FORUM_MAIL_SENDER = 'Nahan <selfboot@qq.com>'

# Optional, setting about translation.
BABEL_DEFAULT_LOCALE = 'zh'
BABEL_DEFAULT_TIMEZONE = 'CST'
# Some config about forum, containing pagination page size, saving position and limit of avatar.
PER_PAGE = 10
UPLOAD_FOLDER = os.path.join(basedir, 'nahan/static/upload')
ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS = set(['png', 'jpg', 'jpeg'])
MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH = 512 * 1024
# Database setting.
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = (os.environ.get('DEV_DATABASE_URL') or
'mysql://root:******@localhost/nahan')

3. Start corresponding database service.
4. Change directory, run `python manage.py runserver`.

In MacOS, start mysql using the following command:

mysql.server start
