ATST
Description
This is the main user-facing web application for the ATAT stack. All end-user requests are handled by ATST, with it making backend calls to various microservices when appropriate.
Installation
Requirements
See the scriptz repository for the shared requirements and guidelines for all ATAT applications. Additionally, ATST requires a redis instance for session management. Have redis installed and running. By default, ATST will try to connect to a redis instance running on localhost on its default port, 6379.
Cloning
This project contains git submodules. Here is an example clone command that will automatically initialize and update those modules:
git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:dod-ccpo/atst.git
Setup
This application uses Pipenv to manage Python dependencies and a virtual
environment. Instead of the classic requirements.txt file, pipenv uses a
Pipfile and Pipfile.lock, making it more similar to other modern package managers
like yarn or mix.
To perform the installation, run the setup script:
script/setup
The setup script creates the virtual environment, and then calls script/bootstrap to install all of the Python and Node dependencies.
To enter the virtualenv manually (a la source .venv/bin/activate):
pipenv shell
If you want to automatically load the virtual environment whenever you enter the project directory, take a look at direnv. An .envrc file is included in this repository. direnv will activate and deactivate virtualenvs for you when you enter and leave the directory.
Running (development)
To start the app locally in the foreground and watch for changes:
script/dev_server
Testing
To run lint, static analysis, and unit tests:
script/test
To run only the unit tests:
pipenv run python -m pytest
To re-run tests each time a file is changed:
pipenv run ptw
Notes
tornado templates are like mustache templates -- add the
following to ~/.vim/filetype.vim for syntax highlighting:
:au BufRead *.html.to set filetype=mustache
