first thing is to set up your virtual environment.
By way of illustration I will provide snippets to help you setup.
Ps. All commands below are terminal commands.
creating a virtualenv via venv
python3 -m venv {name of your env}
To activate your venv
source {name of your venv}/bin/activate
Please create a dotenv file for your environment variables. An example environment variable is provided. This file is called .example.env.
Installing Requirements can be done by using this command.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Migrating DB with Alembic
alembic upgrade heads
Starting your Server
uvicorn src.app.main:app --reload
I create a postman collection that can be forked for testing. here -> https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/17138168/2s93RUuBx8
what does this means?
we can skip creating Virtualenvs and work directly with docker.
The start up code is
docker-compose up
tear down
docker-compose down
to carry out db migrations we use
docker-compose exec web alembic upgrade heads
