There are two hard things in computer science, cache invalidation and deciding where to eat.
Ebédke is Flask frontend and a web crawler that collects the daily menu from pages of restaurants. The collected menus are cached in redis and can be view in an HTML page or in JSON format.
Pipenv is the recommended tool to manage dependencies. A locally installed and running redis server is required at the moment.
First install the dependencies:
pipenv sync
Copy config.py.example as config.py and set the values. A Facebook app
token
is required to read posts from facebook pages.
Running app.py directly will run the Flask dev server, enough for testing
purposes but not ideal for production.
pipenv run python app.py
To test individual providers add their module name as an argument to app.py.
Adding an optional integer argument will offset the date, for example:
pipenv run python app.py provider -3
Note that running the scripts individually will skip the redis cache.
Using a production webserver with a wsgi server like gunicorn or uwsgi is recommended. An example nginx config is included in the resources directory. It can be used with this example uwsgi command.
uwsgi --plugin python3 --virtualenv /virtualenv/path/ -s /run/ebedke.sock --manage-script-name --mount /=app:app --threads=4 --chmod-socket=664 -T
