qPRC

Jupyter notebook and web UI for modelling visualising DNA concentration over time.

Notebook

While developing the workflow, we are using a Jupyter notebook. Assuming you have your Python sci dev environment set up (Python 3.5 was used during development), you can start it from the root of the git repository with:

jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=./notebook

And see it in your browser at http://127.0.0.1:8888/.

If you just want to view the contents, you can see it on nbviewer without installing anything.

Web app

Development

Assuming a Python sci/dev environment, which would on e.g. OS X be more or less:

install OS X command line tools (or Xcode)
install Homebrew
install some binary dependencies
```
 brew install python3 gcc freetype
```
install some Python global dependencies
```
 pip install virtualenvwrapper
```

Get ready:

mkvirtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 qPRC
pip install -r requirements/dev.txt
npm install
bower install
grunt build

See if any migrations are necessary:

./manage.py migrate

Link up your front+backend:

util/bootstrap.sh

Then in one tab spin up the frontend workflow:

grunt serve

And in another the backend workflow:

./manage.py runserver_plus

Production

Everything the same, except:

pip install -r requirements/prod.txt
util/boostrap.sh prod

Or use the prod brunch:

grunt publish
cd prod
git checkout prod
./manage.py runserver

Deployment

To deploy to Heroku, from the repo root run:
