Before running the applications please ensure the following prerequisites have been met.
#### Software
Most applications in this repository are built using Docker which resolves many dependencies but you will require a local installation of `git`, `docker` and `docker-compose`.
```bash
$ sudo apt install git docker-compose
```
To install `docker`, follow the [official installation documentation](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/). [Instructions are also available for `docker-compose`](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
In order to recieve address data while running in development mode you will need to set an environment variable containing a valid linz data service api key. Such a key can be retrieved by signing up to https://data.linz.govt.nz/. One way of setting the variable is exporting it in the same terminal window that you will run the application. To do this please create a .env file in the root directory using `default.env` as an example. Fill in values as appropriate.
Please unzip and add the following shapefiles to the `./backend/right_tree/api/data/resources` directory. It should include all the files required by the shapefile and use naming conventions as follows:
A summary of available commands are outlined below. Note that if the command requires the application to be running (`Requires Run`) please execute `./dev start` in another terminal before running that command.
| Command | Description | Requires Run |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `create_database` | Removes the existing database and data. Then it creates the `right_tree` database within a fresh postgis database instance. | No
| `makemigrations` | Performs the django `makemigrations` command in the backend container. | Yes
| `migrate` | Performs the django `migrate` command in the backend container. | Yes
| `createsuperuser` | Performs the django `createsuperuser` command in the backend container. | Yes
| `load_fixtures` | Performs the django `loaddata` command in the backend container. This loads all the fixtures found in the `/backend/right_tree/api/data/fixtures` directory. | Yes
| `load_shapefiles` | Performs the custom `loadshapefiles` command in the backend container. This loads the ecological districts and soil layers shape files in `c`. | Yes
| `create_plant_fixtures` | Performs the custom `createplantfixtures` command in the backend container. This loads the plant spreadsheet data from `/backend/right_tree/api/data/resources/plant_data.xlsx`. Requires the fixtures to be applied and shapefiles loaded. | Yes
| `reset_plants` | Performs the custom `resetplants` command in the backend container. This removes all plant entries from the database. | Yes
| `load_plant_fixtures` | Loads the `/backend/right_tree/api/data/fixtures/plants.json` fixture. Requires the `plants.json` file to be created (`./dev create_plant_fixtures`) and the plant table to be empty (`./dev reset_plants`). | Yes
| `load_plants` | Creates plants fixtures and loads them into a fresh plant table in the database. Requires the fixtures to be applied and shapefiles loaded. | Yes
| `populate_database` | Populates the `right_tree` database with base data (fixtures), provided shapefiles and plant spreadsheet data. Requires the database to be created. | No
| `init_database` | Creates and populates the database | No
| `reset_database` | Removes, recreates and populates the database | No
2. Create an `.env` file (if not done prior) in the root directory using `default.env` as an example. Uncomment values relating to production and fill in the values as appropriate.
Within the interactive terminal. Connect to the database, add the righttree_admin user and give permissions. Please use the same credentials as defined in .env.
6. Populate the database using `sudo ./dev populate_database`
7. Build optimised frontend build and collect together staticfiles `sudo ./dev create_staticfiles`
8. Create a django superuser for access to the admin interface. Please use the same credentials as defined in .env `sudo ./dev createsuperuser`
9. Run the production application using `sudo ./dev start_production`
### Setting up certificates
Create certificate using certbot and letsencrypt, choose option 1 and provide an appropriate email. Ensure port 80 and 443 are externally exposed for the domain before running this command. To retrieve a staging certificate, use the `--test-cert` flag.
