COMP3900 Group Project - Dump Stat Intelligence

To run the project, ensure most recent version of:

• nodejs is installed: https://nodejs.org/en/download/
• python3 https://www.python.org/downloads/
• yarn package manager: https://yarnpkg.com/
• pipenv package manager: https://pipenv-fork.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

are all installed.

To install required packages for backend:

• create a new python3 virtual environment with pipenv --three when in the root directory of the project
• Run pipenv install in the root directory to install all required packages

To install required packages for the frontend:

• cd into /frontend
• run yarn install (note if you get to a message that says the installer is "locking" and doesn't end you can control-c and continue)

To run the project:

• ensure no other processes are running on ports 3000, 8000
• open 2 terminal windows in the root directory of the project
• run make frontend in one window
• in the other window run pipenv shell to use the pipenv environment
• run make backend in the other window
• visit http://localhost:3000 and use the project

Ensure you have concurrently installed (yarn global add concurrently) and are in the python virtual environment for backend (pipenv shell in /backend/pantrypirate). You can use these commands to run the project:

• make backend: run the backend on port 8000
• make frontend: run the frontend on port 3000
• make all: simultaneously make frontend and backend

See The API Spec for details on what the frontend expects

• Ensure nodejs and yarn are installed
• Install required packages: yarn install

Dev server (hot reloading): yarn run dev

Build for production: yarn run build

/components
/lib
  /api
  /redux
  /utils
/pages
/public
/styles

• /components contains shared React components used in various routes
• /lib library of helper scripts
  • /api scripts associated with making calls to and from the backend
  • /redux files associated with the state management of the site, including the redux actions and reducers
  • /utils remaining helper scripts, mainly are localstate management
• /pages contains views for routes. Routes for the frontend are created based on the file structure underneath this folder (https://nextjs.org/docs/routing/introduction)
• /styles contains GLOBAL styles. For most Sass work you should create a module for each component in the same directory as the component. I.e. create components/Button.js and then also create components/Button.module.scss and import the scss file in the component.
