BCODB Local Deployment

System Setup

Requirements

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/biocompute-objects/bco_api

Make sure you are on the desired branch (Check for latest branch):

git switch [DESIRED BRANCH TAG]

Enter the repository

cd bco_api

Create a virtual environment and install the required packages

For Mac/Linux:

skip this first step if you do not want to use pyenv

pyenv local 3.10.6

python3 -m venv env

source env/bin/activate

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

If you are using pyenv and you’re in the virtual environment you created using just python points to python3.10.6

For Windows:

`cd server`
`python -m venv env`
`source env/Scripts/activate`
`pip install -r requirements.txt`

Configure the DB settings using the .secrets file:

OPTION 1: Generate the secrets file

In the project root copy the .secrets.example to .secrets

cp .secrets.example .secrets

Generate the DJANGO_KEY

Generate a 32-bytes long PSK key using the openssl command or PowerShell command.

Mac/Linux:
openssl rand -base64 32
Windows:
[Convert]::ToBase64String((1..32 | ForEach-Object { Get-Random -Minimum 0 -Maximum 256 }) -as [byte[]])

Use a text editor to open the .secrets file update the rest of the values with the required values. For specifics see the configuration documentation.

OPTION 2: Use the local_deployment.secrets file

Fromt the project root:

cp admin_only/local_deployment.secrets .secrets

Set up the database

Both options will give you a working BCO DB with a couple of test users, existing BCOs, and some prefixes.

The details for the test data is included in the

Option #1: Use existing DB

cp admin_only/db.sqlite3 .
python3 manage.py migrate

superusername: bco_api_user
password: testing123

Option #2: Create a new DB with test data

Create a DB and load the DB with test data:

python3 manage.py migrate
python manage.py loaddata tests/fixtures/testing_data.json

Run The Server

Start the Django server.

python3 manage.py runserver

The BCO DB is designed to run on the default Django port 8000. If you want to use another port you can specify that option at the end of the command: python3 manage.py runserver 8181

Make sure API is accessible via web browser. If it worked, you should be able to see the Django Admin site at:

http://localhost:8000/api/admin/

You should be able to log in with the superuser credentials you created or imported

If you copied over the existing databases you should be able to use any of the tokens[KEYs] listed in the authtoken_token.tsv table to submit requests via the Swagger page

Otherwise you will have to create a new user.
