Development on Ubuntu
Environment setup
Choose one of the following two config:
Config global to your desktop
Follow the procedure Ubuntu from scratch
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
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
Hacking on the code
Create a workspace folder ~/wk and go into it.
"git clone" the main repository and go in the umap/ folder.
Once you are in the umap/ folder, create a Python virtual environment:
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
Now, the umap command will be available.
Note: if you close your terminal, you will need to re-run that command from ~/wk/umap:
source venv/bin/activate
To test your code, you will add to install umap from your git folder. Go to ~/wk/umap and run:
make install
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).
Create a PostgreSQL database and apply migrations to setup your database:
createdb umap
umap migrate
You should now be able to start your local uMap instance:
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.
