Webservice & GUI

Look at Krinsky's Guide to Rocket GUI.pdf for all information about the GUI

For developers

1: Set up pre-commit to make all your code nice before committing

$ pip install pre-commit
$ pre-commit install

Now whenever you try to commit, prettier will fix everything up, so you will need to git add * and then git commit again which is annoying but it makes your stuff pretty.

2: Install Node.js from https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager

Install playwright for integration tests by running

$ npx -y playwright@1.44.0 install --with-deps

Initial Setup

1: Download and install docker desktop from docker website https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/ Create a docker account and sign in on docker desktop. You will need to keep docker desktop open when you want to run a docker container.

If you are on Windows

1: Install chocolatey

Open an administrative shell (powershell but run as admin)

$ Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned or Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process
$ Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://community.chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

2: Install Make

$ choco install make

Once this is done, restart your computer

Open up Docker desktop and make sure you are still signed in

Startup

Open up Docker Desktop and make sure you are still signed in

Open up this git repo in a command line and run

$ make build

Spin up the docker containers:

For dev environment which includes fake_rocket

$ make run

For prod environment which sends requests to 10.0.255.1 instead of fake_rocket

$ make run_prod

NOTE: If you are starting up the containers for the first time, POSTGRES might fail because it takes time to initialize. Just make run again

Testing

To run tests, run

$ make test
