Development Environment

Requirements

• Server-side language

  • Python
  • Pip

• Testing (all of them installable via pip)

  • nose
  • I also use rednose but this one is optional

• Assets management / generation

  • Node.js
  • Npm - Usually shipped with Node.js
  • Grunt
  • Bower

Dependency Installation

• Node.js and Npm - See their websites (2 and 3) about how to get them installed in your platform
• Grunt: npm install -g grunt-cli
• Bower: npm install -g bower
• Nose and its companions: pip install -r requirements.txt (May require sudo or su)
  • For development, please install also pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Running the application

Just run honcho start

It will start both uWSGI server and grunt. This will watch the filesystem for changes in the source folders and regenerate the client-side target files as needed.

The API will be available on http://localhost:5000 (The port can be overridden by the $PORT environment variable). The web app is available at http://localhost:8082

Testing the application

To test the application, run nosetests -c nose.cfg from a terminal window.
