Bark Spider

A web interface for Sixty North's software process simulation tools.

Quickstart

The first thing you need to do is clone this repository:

git clone git@github.com:sixty-north/bark-spider
cd bark-spider

Now set up the rest of the environment:

1. Create a virtual environment with Python 3.5:

mkvirtualenv bark-spider --python=python3.5

2. Install the Python dependencies (the simulator and interventions are installed in development mode direct from GitHub):

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Make sure you have a few non-Python dependencies:

• elm: Version 0.17. Use the correct installer for your system, or try npm install -g elm@0.17.0.

4. Build the Elm elements of the system:

pushd bark_spider/elm/
elm-make Main.elm --yes --output=bark_spider.js
popd

5. Install the bark spider server

python setup.py install

6. Start the server:

python bark_spider

7. Visit http://0.0.0.0:8080 in your browser.

8. Run rings around the competition with your new-found insight into software processes.
