Setup and run
To setup the project locally read these wiki pages and follow the instructions:
Run app in Windows
The project runs on Python 3.
-
Create a virtual environment:
virtualenv venv --python=python3
-
Activate the virtual environment: For Git Bash Users:
source ./venv/Scripts/activate
For Windows Command Line Users:
venv\Scripts\activate
-
Install all the dependencies in
requirements.txt
file:pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Make sure you create
.env
using.env.template
and update the values of corresponding environment variables or make sure you exported the following environment variables:
export FLASK_ENVIRONMENT_CONFIG=<local-or-dev-or-test-or-prod-or-stag>
export SECRET_KEY=<your-secret-key>
export SECURITY_PASSWORD_SALT=<your-security-password-salt>
export MAIL_DEFAULT_SENDER=<mail-default-sender>
export MAIL_SERVER=<mail-server>
export APP_MAIL_USERNAME=<app-mail-username>
export APP_MAIL_PASSWORD=<app-mail-password>
export MOCK_EMAIL=<True-or-False>
If you're testing any environment other than "local", then you have to also set these other variables:
export DB_TYPE=<database_type>
export DB_USERNAME=<database_username>
export DB_PASSWORD=<database_password>
export DB_ENDPOINT=<database_endpoint>
export DB_NAME=<database_name>
-
Run the app:
python run.py
-
Navigate to http://localhost:5000 in your browser
-
When you are done using the app, deactivate the virtual environment:
deactivate
Run app in Linux
The project runs on Python 3.
-
Create a virtual enviorntment:
virtualenv venv
-
Activate the virtual environment:
source venv/bin/activate
-
Install all the dependencies in

export FLASK_ENVIRONMENT_CONFIG=<local-or-dev-or-test-or-prod-or-stag>
export SECRET_KEY=<your-secret-key>
export SECURITY_PASSWORD_SALT=<your-security-password-salt>
export MAIL_DEFAULT_SENDER=<mail-default-sender>
export MAIL_SERVER=<mail-server>
export APP_MAIL_USERNAME=<app-mail-username>
export APP_MAIL_PASSWORD=<app-mail-password>
export MOCK_EMAIL=<True-or-False>
If you're testing any environment other than "local", then you have to also set these other variables in the .env file.
export DB_TYPE=<database_type>
export DB_USERNAME=<database_username>
export DB_PASSWORD=<database_password>
export DB_ENDPOINT=<database_endpoint>
export DB_NAME=<database_name>
Use: printenv
to print the environment variables and check all configurations.
-
Run the app with
python run.py
or:export FLASK_APP=run.py flask run
-
Navigate to http://localhost:5000 or the current server in which you are running(will be shown when app is running) in your browser.
-
When you are done using the app, deactivate the virtual environment:
deactivate
or use:
source deactivate
Run with docker
-
Make sure you exported the following environment variables to
.env
file -
Build docker image
docker build -t mentorship-backend:latest .
-
Deploy Docker container ports must be mapped to the host machine port using '--publish' so they're visible.
docker run --env "FLASK_APP=run.py" --publish 5000:5000 mentorship-backend:latest
Run tests
To run the unitests run the following command in the terminal (while the virtual environment is activated):
python -m unittest discover tests
Auto-formatting with black
We use Black to format code automatically so that we don't have to worry about clean and readable code. To install Black:
pip install black
To run black:
black .
Sorting imports with isort
We use isort to sort imports alphabetically, and automatically separated into sections and by type. To install isort:
pip install isort
To run isort:
isort . --profile=black
Automate auto-formatting tools with pre-commit
We use pre-commit to check formatting before every commit message. To install pre-commit:
pip install pre-commit
To set up the git hook scripts:
pre-commit install

Branches
The repository has the following permanent branches:
-
master This contains the code which has been released.
-
develop This contains the latest code. All the contributing PRs must be sent to this branch. When we want to release the next version of the app, this branch is merged into the
master
branch. This is the branch that is used in the deployed version of the app on Heroku. -
bit This branch is for MS-backend version specific to BridgeInTech project. All the contributing PRs related to BIT-MS integration issue must be sent to this branch.
IMPORTANT!! If this is your first time setting up the BridgeInTech project, please DO NOT RUN the MS backend server from this branch BEFORE you run the BIT backend server. Failing to do this will mess up the postgres db schemas used in BIT project. More instruction on setting up the BridgeInTech project can be found here.
