AutoLIMS

autolims allows experiments to be executed by humans and lab robots working together

setup dev environment (OSX)

install db dependencies

brew install mysql postgres

start mysql & postgres if not daemonized

mysql.server start pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres start

create autolims db user & db

will need to update autolims/mysite/settings.py DATABASE field w/ user, db

createuser autolims --createdb -P createdb autolims -U autolims

to reset db (if desired):

dropdb autolims; createdb autolims -U autolims

clone repo

git clone https://github.com/scottbecker/autolims cd autolims

create python virtualenv to store dependencies locally

I like to name mine '.pyenv' or .py3env

use .pyenv/bin/ to shim in the environment for your shell

virtualenv -p python .pyenv . .pyenv/bin/activate.fish

install requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

run migrations

python manage.py migrate

make a django superuser

python manage.py createsuperuser

check that the app works

python manage.py runserver open http://localhost:8000/admin/autolims

add test_db_fixture (kill server first)

python manage.py loaddata autolims/tests/data/test_db_fixture.json python manage.py runserver

create / admin autolims content at http://localhost:8000/admin/autolims

play with app i.e. http://localhost:8000/default/1/runs/5
