Setup

To setup dependenices, install pipenv and run pipenv sync. You might want to run export PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=true first to create the virtualenv in the project folder. You can then activate the virtual environment with pipenv shell. After getting in the virtual environment run pipenv sync to install all the depencdencies in new env.

  • python manage.py migrate to create a new database.
  • python manage.py createsuperuser will let you create a new user to use the admin panel for testing.
  • python manage.py runserver to start a local server.
  • flake8 to lint with flake8.
  • pylint_runner to check for code style and other errors statically with pylint in all files.

It is recommended to set up your IDE with both pylint and flake8, since these will cause the CircleCI build to fail. Google's Python Style Guide is followed upto a certain extent in all modules.

Running Tests

Tests can be run in two configurations:

Without Celery

This is the recommended and default configuration, and should suffice for all developmental purposes except if you are working with async tasks or notifications. Simply use python manage.py test --settings backend.settings_test to run automated tests.

With Celery

This is the default configuration for full-test GitHub builds. To test under this configuration, start a local PostgresQL and RabbitMQ server, and an instance of celery in background with celery -A backend worker --pool=solo -l info. Once celery is processing background tasks, you can run tests as python manage.py test --settings backend.settings_test --keepdb, ensuring that the database test_instiapp is created in postgres beforehand. The following environment variables must be set:

  • DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to backend.settings_test
  • NO_CELERY to false

FTS

Full-Text Search is implemented with Sonic. To set up, install cargo and sonic and start it on localhost. Then set the USE_SONIC setting to True.

Documentation

Autogenerated OpenAPI specification can be accessed at http://server/api/docs/ (or at the official deployment)

Contributing

Pull requests are welcome, but make sure the following criteria are satisfied

  • If you are (possibly) breaking an existing feature, state this explicitly in the PR description
  • Commit messages should be in present tense, descriptive and relevant, closely following the GNOME Commit Message Guidelines. Adding a tag to the message is optional (for now). Commits should not have git tags unless they indicate a version change.
  • Documentation should be updated when the API is modified
  • All required status checks must pass. Barring exceptional cases, relevant tests should be added/updated whenever necessary.
  • Barring exceptional cases, Codacy should not report any new issues
  • Follow the general style of the project. Badly written or undocumented code might be rejected
  • If you are proposing a new model or modifications to an existing one, create an issue first, explaining why it is useful
  • Outdated, unsupported or closed-source libraries should not be used
  • Be nice!
