Countries Informer Service

Service to get up-to-date information about countries and cities.

Requirements:

Install the appropriate software:

1. Docker Desktop.
2. Git.
3. PyCharm (optional).

Quick start

1. cp .env.sample .env
2. docker compose up --build
3. docker exec -it countries-informer-app bash
4. python manage.py migrate --fake sessions zero python manage.py showmigrations sessions [ ] 0001_initial python manage.py migrate --fake-initial

Installation

Clone the repository to your computer:

git clone https://github.com/miamib34ch/HSE-Python-CountriesInformer.git

1. To configure the application copy .env.sample into .env file:

   cp .env.sample .env

   This file contains environment variables that will share their values across the application. The sample file (.env.sample) contains a set of variables with default values. So it can be configured depending on the environment.

2. Build the container using Docker Compose:

   docker compose build

   This command should be run from the root directory where Dockerfile is located. You also need to build the docker container again in case if you have updated requirements.txt.

3. Now it is possible to run the project inside the Docker container:

   docker compose up

   When containers are up server starts at http://0.0.0.0:8020. You can open it in your browser.

Usage

1. To manage your api you need to add superuser. Connect to the application Docker-container (if you are outside the container):

   docker compose exec app bash

   Create superuser:

   ./manage.py createsuperuser

2. Go to http://0.0.0.0:8020/admin and manage your database.

Automation commands

The project contains a special Makefile that provides shortcuts for a set of commands:

1. Build the Docker container:

   make build

2. Generate Sphinx documentation run:

   make docs-html

3. Autoformat source code:

   make format

4. Static analysis (linters):

   make lint

5. Autotests:

   make test

6. Run autoformat, linters and tests in one command:

   make all

Run these commands from the source directory where Makefile is located.

Documentation

The project integrated with the Sphinx documentation engine. It allows the creation of documentation from source code. So the source code should contain docstrings in reStructuredText format.

To create HTML documentation run this command from the source directory where Makefile is located:

make docs-html

After generation documentation can be opened from a file docs/build/html/index.html.
