Installation

Requirements:

• Must have Python 3.5+
• npm (latest version will do)

Process

• Once you have Python installed create a virtual environment (you may need to pip install virtualenv) using virtualenv.
• Once you have an environment set up clone the Github repo into the root of your virtual environment.
• Activate your virtual environment by running ./Scripts/activate in the root of the env.
• Once activated go into backend folder and run pip install -r requirements.text which will install all of the backend requirements.
• Then go into frontend folder and run npm install which looks for the package.json and installs all the dependencies listed.

Running:

Frontend:

• To run the frontend simply be in the frontend folder and run npm start the virtualenv does NOT need to be activated which makes things easier.

Backend:

• Make sure the virtualenv is ACTIVATED, then run python main.py whilst you have an a serial port which is taking data from an Arduino/Xbee to be processed.
• Once that is running you can manually check the data via opening a browser to localhost:8000/
