Demo

Running

In Development

You need Node.js (to use npm) and Python with the required dependencies. On MacOS:

# For the React package manager
brew install node
# Python dependencies
conda create -n backend Python=3.9
conda activate backend
conda install --file backend-react-client/requirements.txt

Install Docker and docker-compose.

Running the app:

# Run the backend before the frontend.
cd backend-flask-server
flask run

cd ../frontend-react-client
npm run start
# or
# DANGEROUSLY_DISABLE_HOST_CHECK=true npm run start
# See this issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70374005/invalid-options-object-dev-server-has-been-initialized-using-an-options-object

The backend listens to port 4000 (because MacOS hijacks the default). If you want to change this, you need to modify the following files:

• backend-flask-server/.flaskenv
• Dockerfile.backend
• frontend-react-client/deployment/nginx.default.conf
• frontend-react-client/package.json

The frontend listens to default port 3000.

Deployment

Using a Gunicorn server for the Python project, and nginx as a reverse proxy in front of it. All commands are run from the root directory.

Building the Docker images together with docker-compose

docker compose up

or docker-compose up on older versions. Use docker compose up -d --no-deps --build to rebuild.
