Execution

Requisites

The following software is needed to execute this application:

Python Virtual Environment

We deploy this application into it's own virtual environment therefore you will need to do the same. Install & Activate the virtualenv (this assumes you are in the root of the application folder using a cli):

    easy_install virtualenv
    mkdir ~/.virtualenvs
    cd ~/.virtualenvs
    virtualenv adaptivelab
    source ~/.virtualenvs/adaptivelab/bin/activate

Install Python Packages

This assumes you are in the root of the application folder using cli:

    cd src
    while read line; do easy_install -ZU $line; done < install-requires.txt
    while read line; do easy_install -ZU $line; done < install-test-requires.txt

Running Application

Execute the following to get the application up and running (assumes you are in the root of the project):

    cd src/adaptivelab
    python setup.py develop
    python manage.py syncdb
    python manage.py runserver

Running Unit Tests

This assumes you are in the root of the project:

    cd src/adaptivelab
    python setup.py develop
    python manage.py test coke.IndexPageTest

Database

The database is put into a temporary folder that is printed to the console when the application is started using python manage.py runserver. Using sqlite3 you can then query the table coke_tweet to see the data captured.
