A private microservice to support The Microsetta Initiative
The private microservice depends on Postgres 9 or higher. For OSX users, we recommend installing Postgres.app. For Linux users, please consult documentation for the Linux distribution in use.
Create a new conda environment containing flask and other necessary packages:
conda create --yes -n microsetta-private-api python=3.7
Once the conda environment is created, activate it:
conda activate microsetta-private-api
Ensure that the conda-forge channel has been added to the conda install and run:
conda install --yes --file ci/conda_requirements.txt
Install additional requirements using pip:
pip install -r ci/pip_requirements.txt
Then install the microsetta-private-api in editable mode:
pip install -e . --no-deps
In the activated conda environment, initialize a test database:
python microsetta_private_api/LEGACY/build_db.py
To run unittests:
make test
Then we'll initiate a Celery worker (Example shown is with embedded Celery Beat scheduler):
celery -A microsetta_private_api.celery_worker.celery worker -B --loglevel=info
*** OR (Allowing for multiple workers)***
celery -A microsetta_private_api.celery_worker.celery worker --loglevel=info (Start 1 worker)
celery -A microsetta_private_api.celery_worker.celery beat --loglevel=info (Start the Celery Beat scheduler)
Next, start the microservice using flask's built-in server by running, e.g.,
python ./microsetta_private_api/server.py
which will start the server on http://localhost:8082 . Note that this usage is suitable for development ONLY--real use of the service would require a production-level server.
The Swagger UI should also be available at http://localhost:8082/api/ui .
