## Development on Ubuntu
### Environment setup
Choose one of the following two config:
#### Config global to your desktop
Follow the procedure [Ubuntu from scratch](ubuntu.md)
But instead using folders /etc/umap, you can create a ~/.umap folder.
This folder will contain the umap.conf file.
And for folder /srv/umap, you can create a ~/umap folder (We will remove this folder later)
You will have to set an env var, we will set it in your .bashrc:
nano ~/.bashrc
Add the following at the end of file:
```
# uMap
export UMAP_SETTINGS=~/.umap/umap.conf
```
Then refresh your terminal
source ~/.bashrc
Run your local uMap and check that it is working properly.
#### Config inside your local git repo
Follow the procedure [Ubuntu from scratch](ubuntu.md)
You can use the local.py.sample in the git repo and copy it to your local git repo to umap/settings/local.py
See [Installation](install.md)
### Hacking on the code
Create a workspace folder ~/wk and go into it.
"git clone" the main repository and go in the umap folder
Several commands you need to issue to be in a virtualenv:
virtualenv ~/wk/umap/venv --python=/usr/bin/python3.6
source ~/wk/umap/venv/bin/activate
Now, command "umap" will be available
*Note: if you close your terminal, you will need to re-run command:*
source /srv/umap/venv/bin/activate
To test your code, you will add to install umap from your git folder. Go to ~/wk/umap and run:
pip install -e .
# or pip install -e ~/wk/umap
This command will check dependencies and install uMap from sources inside folder.
When installing from the git repository, do not forget to run `make installjs` and `make vendors`, before running `umap collectstatic` (as mentioned in [Ubuntu from scratch](ubuntu.md)).
To start your local uMap:
umap runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
### Update translations
Install needed tools:
apt install gettext transifex-client
Pull the translations from transifex website:
tx pull -f
Then you will need to update binary files with command:
make compilemessages
Done. You can now review and commit modified/added files.
