Development

Create a .env file in the project root with the following environment variables:

MG_HOST=          # Memgraph host address
MG_PORT=          # Default Memgraph port
MG_PORT_ALT=      # Alternative port

To enter development mode of the website, with the memgraph database running in the background, run

fastapi dev app/main.py

Deployment

1. Create a memgraph instance on Microsoft Azure.

Once the VM is up and running, SSH into the VM, download and install memgraph

curl -O https://download.memgraph.com/memgraph/v2.14.1/ubuntu-20.04/memgraph_2.14.1-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i /memgraph_2.14.1-1_amd64.deb

2. Build Docker container

docker build -t research_index_web_app:development .

Run the docker container in development mode to test

docker run -dp 8000:8000 research_index_web_app:development

docker run -dp 5001:80 -w /app -v "$(pwd):/app" research-index-gunicorn-311 sh -c "python app/app.py"

3. Deploy front-end to Azure and provision database

Push container to docker hub

docker container commit c385 ccg-research-index:v0.1
docker image tag ccg-research-index:v0.1 willu47docker/ccg-research-index:ccg-research-index
docker image push willu47docker/ccg-research-index:ccg-research-index
