Build and Run

Development

Install Dependencies

git clone https://github.com/willson556/covid-dashboard.git
cd covid-dashboard
cp debug.env .env

# Python 3 Dependencies
pip3 install -r requirements.txt # I recommend doing this in a virtualenv.

# Node.js Dependencies
cd src/covid_dashboard
npm install -g ember-cli
npm install

Run Dev Server

This project requires two processes to be running for development; a flask dev server for the backend and an ember-cli dev server for the frontend.

Backend:

cd covid-dashboard
flask run # Starts backend at http://localhost:5000

Frontend:

cd covid-dashboard/src/covid_dashboard
ember serve --proxy http://localhost:5000 # Start frontend dev server at http://localhost:4200 while proxying api requests to the backend.

Once both of those are running, the site should be accessible at http://localhost:4200. The dev servers will automatically reload files as they change.

Production

This project is designed to be deployed using Docker Compose. Simply run

git clone https://github.com/willson556/covid-dashboard.git
cd covid-dashboard
docker-compose up --build -d

to deploy. That will run the site at http://localhost:1337. To update, run

cd covid-dashboard
git pull
docker-compose up --build -d
