git clone [email protected]:HE-Arc/neurona.git

With HTTP

git clone https://github.com/HE-Arc/neurona.git

If you are working with Docker, skip to the Docker section

Docker

In a terminal in the project's current folder

docker compose up -d

Once the images have been built, the containers will launch automatically. The application is available at http://localhost:3000.

Without docker

Before you start, ensure you have the following installed on your machine:

• Python (3.8 or later)

• Node.js (14.x or later)

• PostgreSQL (12.x or later)

• Git

1. Clone the Project

First, clone the project repository from GitHub to your local machine.

git clone https://github.com/HE-Arc/neurona.git
cd neurona

2. Set Up the Backend

Install Python:

Download and install Python from python.org.

Set up a virtual environment:

Navigate to the project's root directory in your terminal and run the following commands:

pip install pipenv

Install project dependencies

pipenv install

Activate the virtual environment :

pipenv shell

Execute migrations (database must be configured, otherwise ignore):

python manage.py migrate

3. Configure PostgreSQL

Download and install PostgreSQL from PostgreSQL official site.

Create a database:

Open the PostgreSQL command line client, psql, and run:

CREATE DATABASE neuronaApp;
CREATE USER admin WITH PASSWORD 'yourpassword';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE neuronaApp TO admin;

Configure the Django project's settings:

Open the Django project's settings file (settings.py) and configure the DATABASES setting:

    DATABASES = {
        'default': {
            'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
            'NAME': 'neuronaApp',
            'USER': 'admin',
            'PASSWORD': 'yourpassword',
            'HOST': 'localhost',
            'PORT': '',  # Default is 5432
        }
    }

Make Migrations

Generate the database schema by running these commands:

python manage.py migrate neuronaApp
python manage.py migrate neuronaLogs --database logs

4. Set Up the Frontend

Download and install Node.js from Node.js official site.

Navigate to the directory containing the Vue project (frontend folder) and install the necessary packages:

cd frontend
npm install

4. Run the Project

Run the Django Development Server

In the directory of the Django project, activate the virtual environment if it's not already activated and run:

python manage.py runserver

Run the Vue Development Server

Open a new command line window, navigate to the Vue project directory, and run:

npm run dev

This will start the Vite development server, usually accessible at http://localhost:3000.

5. Access the Application

With both servers running, you can access the frontend of your application by opening http://localhost:3000 in a web browser. The backend will be accessible at http://localhost:8000.
