Fietsenrek

Team project for a university course: designing highly efficient web services

Fietsenrek means a bike rack in Dutch. The project is about getting more fietsenrekken in places where they are really needed. It's community-based: users submit places where a bike rack would be handy while others vote for it.

To run the project backend locally follow these steps:

1. Create a virtualenv with Python 3.5 (we suggest using a virtualenvwrapper)

   mkvirtualenv -p python3.5 fietsenrek

2. Install local requirements (while in the virtualenv)

   pip install -r requirements/local.txt

3. Set up the database

   ./manage.py migrate

4. Create a superuser

   ./manage.py createsuperuser

5. Run the development server on localhost (it's needed for the social apps)

   ./manage.py runserver localhost:8000

6. Add social app integrations:
   1. for Facebook:
      • go to the developers site and create a Facebook Social App in the Django admin using App ID and App Secret from the site.
      • in Django Admin change existing site (example.com) to http://localhost:8000/
      • in Facebook Social App add site http://localhost:8000/

To run the project frontend locally follow these steps:

1. Install npm (https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-node)

2. cd fietsenrek-frontend

3. npm install

4. npm install @angular/http (may require additional libraries, install them if so)

5. npm run serve

6. Go to localhost:3000 and you're good to go!
