What steps do I take to integrate an (outdated) but working django application into my project?

I would like to integrate an existing application someone has on github into my site. What steps do I need to take to integrate it?

Would most people just download this entire thing and throw it inside of the project root开发者_C百科, add it to the INSTALLED_APPS and modify urls.py? I would imagine there are some extra steps I'd have to take to get it to work.

In addition, since it was written in Jan 09-esque, and I'm using the latest 1.2 release I would probably have to modify and add some form csrf checking?

There are no generic instructions for integrating existing application into your django project because every application is different.

Generally most of the popular apps provide README/INSTALL docs which guides you through installation and How to use app. An app without documentation & tests is risky to use unless you are ready to own it and take pain of going through source code and figuring it out.

Also I don't think the application you posted above can be integrated into your project without modifying the code. It's a project by itself and can be used in standalone mode. (Well that's what I think after looking at source code)
