• Download this source code into a working directory, be sure to use the flag --recurse-submodules to clone also our submodules.

• Install the requirements using pip:

  make install
  # This will install all the required packages and libraries for using PokeAPI

• Set up the local development environment using the following command:

  make setup

• Run the server using the following command:

  make serve

Start the Django shell by

python manage.py shell --settings=config.local

Run the build script with

from data.v2.build import build_all
build_all()

Visit localhost:8000/api/v2/ to see the running API!

Each time the build script is run, it will iterate over each table in the database, wipe it, and rewrite each row using the data found in data/v2/csv.

The option to build individual portions of the database was removed in order to increase performance of the build script.

If you ever need to wipe the database use this command:

make wipe_db

There is also a multi-container setup, managed by Docker Compose. This setup allow you to deploy a production-like environment, with separate containers for each services.

Start everything by simply

make docker-setup

If you don't have make on your machine you can use the following commands

docker-compose up -d
docker-compose exec -T app python manage.py migrate --settings=config.docker-compose
docker-compose exec -T app sh -c 'echo "from data.v2.build import build_all; build_all()" | python manage.py shell --settings=config.docker-compose'

Browse localhost/api/v2/ or localhost/api/v2/pokemon/bulbasaur/ on port 80.
