[BUG] Installation Troubleshooting

TAWinterton2 commented 10 months ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

[ ] I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

when trying to follow the instructions on installing the needed dependences to run website, I was running into permissions issues regarding to installing the environment needed to run the website. Maybe add in some common trouble shooting steps to solve this dependence issue. (Add "sudo" in front of command)

Additional Notes:

Note if pipenv doesn't work, go to "Pipfile" to manually install
have nodejs + flask run in 2 seperate terminals
Maybe specify what is benchmark vs final product
cd into project directory

Future README.md versions will now include relevant highlights for dependency prerequisites and clarify development instructions. 💻

I followed the updated README.md that you provided and I noticed that I ran into an issue.

Install dependencies: pipenv shell or via requirements.txt
Run program: pipenv run flask --app server.py --debug run

after installing dependencies using the provided command and going to the run program, I ran into an error that reads as follows:

Warning: Python 3.9 was not found on your system...
Neither 'pyenv' nor 'asdf' could be found to install Python.
You can specify specific versions of Python with:
$ pipenv --python path/to/python

While I wasn't able to run the server using the command in the documentation, i was however able to run it by removing the first 2 lines in the command pipenv run.

So to get the server running without pipenv, I was using the following command. flask --app server.py --debug run

For reference, the VM i was using has python 3.11.5 installed on it.
