To set up the system, first clone the whole repo into your local machine:

git clone git@github.com:vincentfung13/TwitterRepManagement.git

Then navigate to the TwitterRepManagemnet directory and install the requirements with pip:

pip install -r requirements.txt

This system has a dependency of [PostgreSQL] (http://www.postgresql.org/download/) version 9.2 onwards and Django 1.9 onwards. You will also need to install PostgreSQL's python driver [here] (http://initd.org/psycopg/docs/install.html).

First create a database called TwitterRepMonitor in postgres, you can do this via command line:

createdb TwitterRepMonitor

Then you should open TwitterRepManagement/TwitterRepManagement/settings.py, in the python dictionary called DATABASES, change field "USER" and "PASSWORD" to yours (you can also change the host and port if you need to).

Now you can use the provided scripts to set up the project, under the root TwitterRepManagement directory:

<!-- This will do a migration to your database and populate the traning set table -->
sh setup.sh

<!-- This starts the application and set up a cron job for the reputation monitor -->
sh start_app.sh

After this step you can visit the application site on your localhost. If you want to turn on the tweet streaming, you can simply run:

python manage.py start_streamer

Note that the reputation monitor will run once a day, you might want to delete the cron job. After you shut down the server, a file will be opened in which there is a list of your crontabs, to delete the reputation monitor run, simply remove the line "0 0 */1 * * monitor_setup.sh" and save it.
