A tool kit to quick-start NIRS applications without coding.

Definitions

• UbiNIRS App: An Django app running on the server, which performs a specific task using NIRS, such as identifying pills using NIRS.

pip install django django-extensions django-nested-admin django-cleanup numpy joblib scipy scikit-learn===0.22.1 matplotlib pandas

or

cd UbiNIRS
pip install -r requirements.txt

Note: Only tested in Linux, requiring some tweaks for Windows / MacOS.

cd src/django_server/nirs_server
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:18000

• In your web browser, visit the URL: server_ip_address:18000/admin/
• The default username is admin, password is ubinirsadmin

To create new NIRS apps, simply go to the dashboard, then click "ADD UBI NIRS APP".

• Compile and install the app through Android Studio, or use the pre-compiled apk file.
• Click the add button on the bottom-right corner.
• Input the URL shown in the server side with NIRS-app name. By default, the URL for the app is the lower-cased and no-white-space app name (e.g., server_ip_port/smartpillbox for the "Smart Pillbox" app).

• Currently the secret key is hardcoded in the source file, please use system environment for practical use [reference].

• There is no authentication for NIRS app access. Considering adding authentication tokens (such as via user log-in) with https protocal.

• For long-term running, please consider a WSGI or an ASGI server [reference].
