Running in development mode
Follow these instructions to run Kuwala in development mode.
To run the backend, you need to have Python 3.9 (we're using v3.9.5) installed.
First, install the dependencies in a new virtual environment by running the following command from inside the
kuwala/core/backend
directory:DBT_PSYCOPG2_NAME=psycopg2 pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt --no-binary dbt-postgres
First, start the backend database by running the following command from inside the
root
directory of the repository:docker-compose --profile backend_database up
After you installed all requirements, you can launch the API by running the following command from inside the
kuwala/core/backend
directory:python3 app/main.py
To force the API server to reload everytime when code changes have been detected, simply pass
--dev=True
as a parameter when launching the API.python3 app/main.py --dev=True
Important: You need to set the following environment variables:
DATABASE_USER=kuwala
DATABASE_PASSWORD=password
