```
DB_TYPE="sql"
AUTH_FILE="config.yml"
```
If you want to use Neo4J database use:
```
DB_TYPE="neo"
AUTH_FILE="config_neo.yml"
```
requirements.txt: Required python libraries for running the server
run.py: Script to run the server. However we suggest another way to run it, See Below.

You first need to have a config.yml or config_nep.yml if you want to use a SQL/ Neo4J database respectively. The files must have the following format:
```
 user: 
 password: 
 host: 
 database: 
```
Make sure you have the model files for using the Gensim topic model. They should be present in the folder and provided to the TopicExtractor class in views.py
Run the command flask run -host=0.0.0.0 in the repository to start the server.
