## Development
### Client
### Server/Backend (Python)
The Python backend runs on Python 3.9. It's built on FastAPI for the REST API, and SQLAlchemy to handle the databases.
To setup yourself for Python development, do the following:
1. Clone this repo
2. CD into the repo
3. Install PDM: `pip install --user pdm`
4. Install Spoolman dependencies: `pdm sync`
And you should be all setup. Read the Style and Integration Testing sections below as well.
#### Style
[Black](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) and [Ruff](https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/) is used to ensure a consistent style and good code quality. You can install extensions in your editor to make them run automatically.
[Pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) is used to ensure the style is maintained for each commit. You can setup pre-commit by simply running the following in the Spoolman root directory:
```
pip install pre-commit
pre-commit install
```
#### Integration Testing
The entire REST API is integration tested using an isolated docker container, with all 4 database types that we support (Postgres, MySQL, SQLite and CockroachDB). These integration tests live in `tests_integration/`. They are designed to "use" the REST API in the same way that a client would, and ensures that everything remains consistent between updates. The databases are created as part of the integration testing, so no external database is needed to run them.
If you have docker installed, you can run the integration tests using `pdm run itest` for all databases, or e.g. `pdm run itest postgres` for a single database.
### Client (Node/React/Typescript)
The client is a React-based web client, built using the [refine.dev](https://refine.dev) framework, with Ant Design as the components.
To test out changes to the web client, the best way is to run it in development mode.
Prerequisites:
* NodeJS 16 or above installed, along with NPM. Running `node --version` should print a correct version.
* NodeJS 20 or above installed, along with NPM. Running `node --version` should print a correct version.
* A running Spoolman server, with the following two environment variables added in the `docker-compose.yml`:

Instructions:
1. Open a terminal and CD to the `client` subdirectory
2. Run `npm install`. If it doesn't succeed, you probably have an incorrect node version. Spoolman is only tested on NodeJS 16.
2. Run `npm install`. If it doesn't succeed, you probably have an incorrect node version. Spoolman is only tested on NodeJS 20.
3. Run `echo "VITE_APIURL=http://192.168.0.123:7901/api/v1" > .env`, where the ip:port is the address of the running Spoolman server. This should create a `.env` file in the `client` directory. If you don't already have one running on your network, you can start one up using the `docker-compose.yml` showed above.
4. Run `npm run dev`. The terminal will print a "Local: xxxx" URL, open that in your browser and the web client should show up. Your existing spools etc in your Spoolman database should be loaded in.
5. Any edits in .ts/.tsx files will be automatically reloaded in your browser. If you make any change to .json files you will need to F5 in your browser.
