Crosswatch is an enhanced cross-wiki watchlist for Wikimedia projects running at tools.wmflabs.org/crosswatch.
It uses a Python based backend and a AngularJS based frontend.
git clone https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/TCRW/labs-tools-crosswatch.git
cd crosswatch
##Frontend Install the local dependencies
sudo npm install -g gulp bower
cd frontend
npm install
bower install --production
While developing use gulp serve to preview changes and gulp build to
build the application to frontend/dist for deployment.
##Backend
First change config.py to use your credentials.
cd backend
cp config.py.sample config.py
Then create a virtualenv and run
cd ..
python setup.py install
Start the Tornado webserver on $PORT with
python -m backend $PORT
and the a celery worker:
celery -A backend worker -l info
There are some helpful scripts if the tool runs on Tool Labs in the scripts
directory. Change the name of the tool in frontend/gulpfile.js and
backend/config.py and the scripts files.
Invoke tox. We rely on flake8 to enforce python style.
