We are strongly advice you to use pycharm during development process.

Create a file imcslms/settings.py with content:

from imcslms.default_settings import *

You may want to define following variables as well

CATS_URL = '<cats-url>'
CATS_LOGIN = '<your-cats-account>'
CATS_PASSWD = '<your-cats-password>'

Create database inside the composition.

Launch the database container:

docker compose up database

Postgres should create default database during the initial launch with use .docker/conf/common.env variables.

In case if it's not created automatically for some reason then read logs and create it manually using any approach that's suits for you (pgAdmin, pycharm, terminal).

When it's done you should apply migrations

docker compose run backend python manage.py migrate

docker compose run backend python manage.py createsuperuser

You are ready to launch composition

docker compose up

Don't forget to add superuser to 'teacher' group in admin-panel.

You can run tests with

docker compose exec backend python manage.py test

Install Node.js & install frontend dependencies via command

npm install

Now you should be able to run frontend application

npm run serve
