safe-config-service

The safe-config-service is a service that provides configuration information in the context of the Safe clients environment (eg.: list of available safe apps and chain metadata).

Requirements

docker-compose – https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/
Python 3

Setup

1. Configuration

The environment variables are set via the .env file. The configuration in .env.example is meant to be production ready. You can copy it and adjust it to your development needs (refer to the file for the explanation about each environment variable).

cp .env.example .env

Important: Some variables are required to be set before running the application: SECRET_KEY, POSTGRES_USER, POSTGRES_PASSWORD. They can be set either locally on your environment or (as a provided example) by uncommenting these variables from the .env file.

2. Running the service image

The project relies on nginx and postgres services. If you are running this locally this is already set in the docker-compose.yml file:

docker compose up

The service will then be available under localhost:$NGINX_HOST_PORT.

Development

If you wish to develop locally without running an image for the Django service you can do the following:

Install the required Python dependencies. Eg.: With a python virtual environment:

python -m venv venv # creates a virtual environment venv in the local directory
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Export the environment variables of .env to the local shell/environment (some shells might require you to allexport before doing that)

source .env

Run a PostgreSQL database locally. Check your .env to see the user, host and port details which are expected by the Django application. You can also run the bundled Postrges image with Docker.

docker-compose up -d db # postgres will be listening on port $POSTGRES_PORT

Launch the service:

python src/manage.py runserver

Development Tools

The project uses a variety of tools to make sure that the styling, health and correctness are validated on each change. These tools are available via requirements-dev.txt so to have them available in your virtual environment run:

pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Testing

Pytest is used to run the available tests in the project. Some of these tests validate the integration with the database so having one running is required (you can have one running in the background with docker compose up -d db). From the project root:

pytest src

Code Style Formatter and Linter

Black, Flake8 and isort are the tools used to validate the style of the changes being pushed. You can refer to the documentation of these tools to check how to integrate them with your editor/IDE.

isort --profile black src # sorts imports according to the isort spec with a profile compatible with Black
black src # formats the files in the src folder using Black
flake8 src # runs flake8 Linter in the src folder

There's also a pre-commit hook that you can install locally via pre-commit so that it formats the files changed on each commit automatically:

pre-commit install # installs commit hook under .git/hooks/pre-commit
git commit # Initially this can take a couple minutes to setup the environment (which will be reused in following commits)
