Application Configuration

  • config.py - will hold all configuration values for the application runtime - LOCAL FILE

Getting Started

Installing Packaged Dependencies

You are strongly encouraged to use a virtual environment for development, and virtualenv wrapper is the way to go.

Whether you use a virtualenv or not your first step is to install your Python dependencies:

  • with virtualenv wrapper
  • $ mkvirtualenv survey_env -r requirements.txt
  • without virtualenv wrapper
  • $ pip install -r requirement.txt

requirements.txt holds a record of all packaged Python dependencies. If you update or add any packages, please remember to run:

  • $ pip freeze > requirements.txt

Configuring/Initializing the Database

Configuration specifications will come in a later update. For now these are the config variables that will be utilized.

  • SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI
  • SQLALCHEMY_ECHO
  • DATABASE_QUERY_TIMEOUT

To initialize the database, run:
$ python manage.py initdb

Running the App

Development

To run the application in your development environment. After you initialize your database;

  • $ python manage.py runserver

The development server should start in DEBUG mode (this is specified in you config file) and with the reloader:

$ python manage.py runserver
* Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/
* Restarting with reloader

Production

Cron job:

  • $ python manage.py write_output to get the csv output file

Tools and Dependencies

All packaged Python dependencies can be found in requirements.txt and are managed using pip.

Most other packages (related to the application's front end) are managed with Bower and you can see this list in bower.json.

The style for the applications front end is based on Bootstrap but is customized by using a modified bootstrap swatch theme from Bootswatch, namely 'Darkly'.

The custom style sheet is located in app/static/bootswatch.

We update styles by modifying the LESS files. These are compiled using Grunt:

$ grunt swatch:darkly
Running "swatch:darkly" (swatch) task
...
Done, without errors.
