This project was generated with the Angular Full-Stack Generator version 4.2.2.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Git
• Node.js and npm Node >= 4.x.x, npm >= 2.x.x
• Gulp (sudo npm install -g gulp@3.9.0)
• MongoDB - Keep a running daemon with mongod
• Python 2.7 With the following package installed:

• numpy
• pymongo
• gridfs
• sphinx
• pynn
• parameters
• re
• sys
• os
• datetime
• json
• pickle
• imageio==2.6
• mozaik (https://github.com/CSNG-MFF/mozaik/)

Developing

1. Run npm install to install server dependencies.

2. Run sudo npm install -g bower to install bower and then run bower install -f angular-ui-tree angular-bootstrap-lightbox angularjs-slider --config.directory=client/bower_components to install these bower components in the proper directory.

3. Run sudo mkdir -p /data/db/ and sudo chown `id -u` /data/db to create the MongoDB directory with user ownership and then mongod in a separate shell to keep an instance of the MongoDB Daemon running.

4. Run sudo npm install --global gulp@3.9.0 to install gulp and npm link gulp to link it locally. Then run gulp serve to start the development server. It should automatically open the client in your browser when ready.

5. Use the script add_mozaik_repository.py in the server directory to add mozaik simulations (python add_mozaik_repository.py path_to_mozaik_simulation_run_output_directory) or mozaik parameter search (python add_mozaik_repository.py path_to_mozaik_parameter_search_output_directory name_of_the_simulation) in the mozaik repository.

Build & development

Run gulp build for building and gulp serve for preview.
