Atos Pattern Matching Algorithm Build Status

To get started, you will need to install pip, git, PostgreSQL (and brew, if you're using a mac).

Setting Up the Database

Create a postgres database with psql (installed with PostgreSQL):

CREATE USER atos WITH PASSWORD 'atos';
CREATE DATABASE atos WITH OWNER atos;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE atos TO atos;

Setting Up a Local Environment

First, you will need to install virtualenv using pip:

pip install virtualenv

After you have virtualenv installed, create a virtual environment:

virtualenv venv

In your new virtual environment, clone the repository and cd into the correct repository

git clone https://github.com/ucl-team-8/service.git service
cd service

Then run these bash commands to set the environment variables in your virtual environment activate file:

echo "export APP_SETTINGS='config.DevelopmentConfig'" >> venv/bin/activate
echo "export DATABASE_URL='postgres://atos:atos@localhost/atos'" >> venv/bin/activate

Activate your virtual environment by running:

source venv/bin/activate

Finally, install all dependencies from requirements.txt:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Installing Visualisation Dependencies

To install node and npm on a Mac, run:

brew install node

If you don't have brew, see installation instructions here.

To install node and npm on Windows, download it from nodejs.org.

After you have npm, run:

npm install -g jspm
npm install
jspm install

Finally, a local environment should be set up.

Creating the Database Tables

We use Flask-Migrate to handle database migrations. To create the necessary database tables, run:

python manage.py db upgrade

Importing Data

You will first need to get a copy of the locations.tsv file with all of the TIPLOC locations. This file is not publicly available since it is considered confidential information.

To import all of the data in the data directory, either run:

python import/import.py northern_rail

or:

python import/import.py east_coast

depending on which data set you would like to import.
