title: Setting up a local dev environment
|
|

|
|
## Backend
|
|
|
|
To create a local development setup for passbook, you need the following:
|
|
|
|
- Python 3.9
|
|
- pipenv, which is used to manage dependencies, and can be installed with `pip install pipenv`
|
|
- PostgreSQL (any recent version will do)
|
|
- Redis (any recent version will do)
|
|
|
|
For PostgreSQL and Redis, you can use the docker-compose file in `scripts/`. You can also use a native install, if you prefer.
|
|
|
|
To configure passbook to use the local databases, create a file in the passbook directory called `local.env.yml`, with the following contents
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
debug: true
|
|
postgresql:
|
|
user: postgres
|
|
|
|
log_level: debug
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, you can start passbook by running `./manage.py runserver`. Generally speaking, passbook is a Django application.
|
|
|
|
Most functions and classes have type-hints and docstrings, so it is recommended to install a Python Type-checking Extension in your IDE to navigate around the code.
|
|
|
|
## Frontend
|
|
|
|
By default, no transpiled bundle of the frontend is included. To build the UI, you need Node 12 or newer.
|
|
|
|
To build the UI, run these commands:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd web/
|
|
npm i
|
|
npm run build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to make changes to the UI, run `npm run watch` instead.
