Installation

Step 1: Generate certificates

If you are planning to use the certs included with repo you can skip it. Before you can run Socket Spades, you need to set up SSL certificates. You can do this using mkcert, a tool that generates and manages SSL certificates.

To install mkcert using Homebrew, run the following command:

brew install mkcert

Once mkcert is installed, you can create the SSL certificates for localhost and 127.0.0.1 by running:

mkcert -install
mkcert -cert-file ./certs/server.crt -key-file ./certs/server.key localhost 127.0.0.1

You can also generate a self-signed SSL certificate using OpenSSL by running:

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:4096 -days 365 -nodes -x509 -subj "/CN=localhost/C=US/L=San Fransisco" -keyout server.key -out server.crt

Step 2: Install dependencies and run server

Create a virtual environment and activate it by running:

python3 -m venv venv-name
source venv-name/bin/activate

Next, install all required dependencies by running:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the following commands to create database tables:

export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=ChatApp.settings
python3 manage.py makemigrations chat    
python3 manage.py migrate

Finally, run the server using:

./run.sh
