Learn2Cook

Is a full-stack application that draws inspiration from New York Times Cooking and Netflix.

As more and more people are learning to be more experimental in their culinary prowess, there should be a website that is dedicated to those who are just starting to learn. Users can look at recipes, read and leave reviews, as well as favoriting what they love to make, for easier access to them!

Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple steps.

Prerequisites

This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.

• npm

  npm install npm@latest -g

Installation

1. Clone the repo

   git clone https://github.com/nikhilmenon2/Learn2Cook

2. Install NPM packages in /reactapp folder

   npm install

3. Install Pipenv Dependencies in root folder

     pipenv install --dev -r dev-requirements.txt && pipenv install -r requirements.txt

4. Create a .env file based on the example with proper settings for your development environment

5. Setup your PostgreSQL user, password and database and make sure it matches your .env file

6. Get into your pipenv, migrate your database, seed your database, and run your flask app

   pipenv shell

   flask db upgrade

   flask seed all

   flask run

7. To run the React App in development, checkout the README inside the react-app directory.

IMPORTANT! If you add any python dependencies to your pipfiles, you'll need to regenerate your requirements.txt before deployment. You can do this by running:

pipenv lock -r > requirements.txt

ALSO IMPORTANT! psycopg2-binary MUST remain a dev dependency because you can't install it on apline-linux. There is a layer in the Dockerfile that will install psycopg2 (not binary) for us.
