You should run the server in a virtualenv. This can be done like so:
pip install virtualenv
virtualenv venv
Whenever you wish to work on the project, just cd into the directory that you ran the
virtualenv venv
command, and run
source venv/bin/activate
Then, you should install the requirements for the project:
pip install -r requirements.txt
You will also need to install the tesseract OCR library. On Mac OS X, this can be done like so:
brew install tesseract
You will also need to install the zxing library. You should probably be able to install it this way (you may need to be logged in as root):
wget http://zxing.googlecode.com/files/ZXing-1.6.zip
unzip -d /opt/local/
cd /opt/local/zxing-1.6
ant -f core/build.xml
ant -f javase/build.xml
Finally, you can run the server like so:
cd wine
python manage.py runserver
We require a Postgresql database with the postgis extension installed.
On OS X postgis
can be installed by running the commands:
brew install postgis
initdb /usr/local/var/postgres
After creating your database, run
CREATE EXTENSION postgis;
on the database.
Finally, you can run the migrations:
python wine/manage.py syncdb
python wine/manage.py migrate wine
If you want, you can populate your database with wines gathered from the wine.com API. This is necessary for Label and barcode recognition to work successfully. It will also be helpful for autocomplete. You can seed the database like so:
cd wine
python manage.py seed
You should test your code before sumbitting a pull request.
To test your code, use the following command:
python manage.py test wine
If you wish to add tests to the code, our tests are in the tests
directory. You should
add new tests whenever you implement new functionality.
