Demo REST API to do enquiries of the details of a country

Project description

The strange name comes from the name of an entity and helmsman whois also a navigator hence looking for details of a country. The strange name also contribute to finding a unique name on yPI and at the same time not squatting useful names on the public domain. Testing the application: 1. Run it locally 2. Connect to the SPI server www.prodigyhelmsman.co.za Run it locally Setup an development environemtn 1. Download from Git 2. InstallReahl - Configure the database 3. Start the server - RUn the unit tests or - Run enquire_country Development

Developing

To do any development, you must install Reahl in a virtual environment. For detailed instructions please refer to the Reahl website (https://www.reahl.org/docs/5.1/tutorial/gettingstarted-install.d.html) The basic steps are as follow:

  1. Prerequisites (for these instructions)

    • Linux 20.4 (Ubuntu)

    • Python 3.8

    • Git 2.25.1

  2. Install a virtual environment

    • You can setup the virtual environment in a different directory than from your development directory.

    • Make sure you have sufficient rights to the directory directories.

    • Install the virtual environment

    • Activate the virtual environment

    • The prompt should change to indicate that your virtual environment is active.

$ sudo chmod 777 /usr/local
$ python3 -m venv /usr/local/prodigyhelmsman_env
$ source /usr/local/prodigyhelmsman_env/bin/activate
  1. Install Reahl in the virtual environment

    • Change to or create the directory where you want to install your project. Your home directory might be the safest for now.

    • The instructions below will prepare Reahl to connect to a Sqlite database.

    • Add/replace the mysql parameter in the instruction below depending on your requirement.

$ cd ~
$ pip3 install reahl[declarative,sqlite,dev,doc]
  1. Clone the project from GitHub

$ git clone https://github.com/hendrikdutoit/ProdigyHelmsman
  1. Configure ProdigyHelmsman

$ cd ./ProdigyHelmsman/
$ reahl setup develop -N
$ reahl createdbuser etc
$ reahl createdb etc
$ reahl createdbtables etc
  1. Load test data

    • The database is empty.

    • The demosetup procedure will load test data into the database

$ reahl demosetup
  1. Start the simulator

$ reahl serve etc
  1. Run a sample

    • Open-up another session

    • Run the enquire_country script.

    • Start the enquire_country with command line option “1”. This will connect to the local server. Option “2” will connect to www.prodigyhelmsman.co.za

$ cd ./ProdigyHelmsman/

  1. Notes

    • The reahl unit wack the database i.e. the database will be empty after a unit test

    • Use the reahl demosetup to refresh the database

    • If you are using sqlite, you must stop the server before loading data into the database. Sqlite can only handle one connection at a time.

    • Stop the server whilst executing the unit tests. The unit test start its own server, but sqlite has a problem with multiple connections.

Testing

  1. This project uses reahl unit to run execute pytest.

  2. To run the tests
    • Make sure the server is stopped <ctrl-c>
