Development Setup

Tools

These instructions assume you're using these development and tools:

• IDE: PyCharm Professional Edition
• Operating System: Ubuntu

Environment Setup

Make sure all of the following are properly installed on your system:

1. python3 & pip3:
   • Install python3 & pip3
   • Installing Python 3 on Linux
2. pipenv:
   • Install pipenv
   • Add ${HOME}/.local/bin to your PATH

Project Initialization

1. Clone this repository.

2. In PyCharm:

   • Go to File > New Project...
   • Click Pure Python (NOT Flask!!)
   • Click the folder icon in the Location field.
   • Select the directory where you cloned this repository and click Ok.
   • Expand the Project Interpreter section.
   • Select the New environment using radio button and choose Pipenv in the dropdown.
   • Under Base interpreter, select Python 3.6
   • In the Pipenv executable field, enter /home/your_username_goes_here/.local/bin/pipenv
   • Click Create

3. PyCharm should automatically install the necessary packages via pipenv. For me, the project interpreter did not set set up for me correctly on first attempt. I had to go to File -> Settings -> Project Interpreter and again set the project to use the correct PipEnv environment. Be sure that your settings like simliar to this, or attempt to add the interpreter again by clicking on the gear icon.

4. With this properly setup for the project, you can now right click on the run.py and set up a new run configuration and set up a run configuration that looks like the following (be sure to save this run configuration so it doesn't go away.) :

Running the project

Just click the "Play" button next to RUN in the top right corner of the screen. The Swagger based view of the API will be avialable at http://0.0.0.0:5000/v1.0/ui/
