PATRIC 3 WebApp

Requirements

node (6.x LTS) https://nodejs.org or

// macOS
brew install node@6

// centos
curl --silent --location https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | bash -
yum -y install nodejs

redis (3.2+) http://redis.io/ or

brew install redis

Installation

git clone --recursive  https://github.com/PATRIC3/p3_web.git
cd p3_web
npm install
cp p3-web.conf.sample p3-web.conf  (and edit as necessary)

If you cloned without --recursive flag,

cd p3_web
npm install
git submodule update --init
// Note: git submodule fetches a module in node_modules directory. So npm install first!

Authentication config for development

In ./p3-web.conf, place a token and user id/name as follows:

{
    "devAuthorizationToken": "token",
    "devUser": {
        "id":"user@patricbrc.org",
        "name": "user name"
    }
}

Note: authentication is stored as a session cookie. You can clear it via your browser devtools if needed.

Running

redis-server &
npm start 

Note: if any configuration changes are made (i.e., changes to ./p3-web.conf), then ./bin/p3-web must be restarted.
