Prerequisites: CMake (Required to build VisualDL) and virtualenv

1. Clone paddleboard repo and setup git submodules

git clone git@github.com:PaddlePaddle/board.git

cd board
git submodule init
git submodule update

2. Create virtual environment

virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate

3. Build and install paddleboard wheel. Note VisualDL cmake build currently requires numpy to be installed, so you must install this first.

pip install numpy==1.13.3
./paddleboard/pip/build_package.sh
pip install --upgrade dist/paddleboard-0.1-py2-none-any.whl

4. Run server

paddleboard runserver

5. Launch browser and navigate to http://localhost:8000
