# Website Template
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This repository is a template to build high quality websites as a team.
|
|
|
|
|
The frontend uses [React NextJS
|
|
|
|
|
](https://nextjs.org/) and the backend uses Python with the [Fastapi framework](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/). To ensure API compatibility between frontend and backend an `openapi.json` file is generated from the Python backend code, which defines the REST API. This `openapi.json` file is then fed into [Orval](https://orval.dev/), which generates Typescript bindings for the Rest API. To ensure code correctness, we use [mypy](https://mypy-lang.org/) to ensure the Python code is correctly statically typed, and [pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/en/7.4.x/) for backend tests. A Continuos Integration (CI) Bot, verifies the code with previously mentioned Quality Assurance (QA) tools and blocks Pull requests if any errors arise.
|
|
|
|
|
For dependency management we use the [Nix package manager](https://nixos.org/) to ensure reproducibility.

Welcome to our website template repository! This template is designed to help you and your team build high-quality websites efficiently. We've carefully chosen the technologies to make development smooth and enjoyable. Here's what you can expect from this template:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started: Development Environment
|
|
|
|
|
**Frontend**: Our frontend is powered by [React NextJS](https://nextjs.org/), a popular and versatile framework for building web applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Install the Nix package manager by [downloading the nix installer](https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer/releases) or executing this command:
|
|
|
|
|
**Backend**: For the backend, we use Python along with the [FastAPI framework](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/). To ensure seamless communication between the frontend and backend, we generate an `openapi.json` file from the Python code, which defines the REST API. This file is then used with [Orval](https://orval.dev/) to generate TypeScript bindings for the REST API. We're committed to code correctness, so we use [mypy](https://mypy-lang.org/) to ensure that our Python code is statically typed correctly. For backend testing, we rely on [pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/en/7.4.x/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
**Continuous Integration (CI)**: We've set up a CI bot that rigorously checks your code using the quality assurance (QA) tools mentioned above. If any errors are detected, it will block pull requests until they're resolved.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Install direnv by [downloading the direnv package](https://direnv.net/docs/installation.html) or executing this command:
|
|
|
|
|
**Dependency Management**: We use the [Nix package manager](https://nixos.org/) to manage dependencies and ensure reproducibility, making your development process more robust.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
curl -sfL https://direnv.net/install.sh | bash
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|

Visit the website by going to [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Getting started: Setup Git Workflow
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Register your Gitea account locally by executing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
tea login add
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You will then see a prompt, please fill it out like outlined below:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
? URL of Gitea instance: https://gitea.gchq.icu
|
|
|
|
|
? Name of new Login [gitea.gchq.icu]: gitea.gchq.icu:7171
|
|
|
|
|
? Do you have an access token? No
|
|
|
|
|
? Username: MyUserName
|
|
|
|
|
? Password: **********
|
|
|
|
|
? Set Optional settings: No
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. First add your changes to git:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. `git add <file1> <file2>` your changes
|
|
|
|
|
2. Execute `nix fmt` to lint your files
|
|
|
|
|
3. `git commit -a -m "My descriptive commit message"`
|
|
|
|
|
4. Make sure your branch has the latest changes from upstream by executing:
|
|
|
|
|
- Direnv needs to [hook into your shell](https://direnv.net/docs/hook.html) to work.
|
|
|
|
|
You can do this by executing following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
git fetch && git rebase origin/main --autostash
|
|
|
|
|
echo 'eval "$(direnv hook zsh)"' >> ~/.zshrc && echo 'eval "$(direnv hook bash)"' >> ~/.bashrc && eval "$SHELL"
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Execute `git status` to see if you have a merge conflict.
|
|
|
|
|
6. If so edit the file and fix the conflict. Here is a tutorial how to do so in [vscode](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/sourcecontrol/overview#_merge-conflicts)
|
|
|
|
|
7. Execute `git merge --continue` and repeat step 5 till there are no conflicts anymore
|
|
|
|
|
4. **Clone the Repository and Navigate**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. To automatically open up a pull request, that gets merged if all tests pass execute:
|
|
|
|
|
- Clone this repository and navigate to it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. **Allow .envrc**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- When you enter the directory, you'll receive an error message like this:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
direnv: error .envrc is blocked. Run `direnv allow` to approve its content
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
- Execute `direnv allow` to automatically execute the shell script `.envrc` when entering the directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. **Build the Backend**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Go to the `pkgs/clan-cli` directory and execute:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
direnv allow
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
- Wait for the backend to build.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. **Start the Backend Server**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- To start the backend server, execute:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
clan webui --reload --no-open --log-level debug
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
- The server will automatically restart if any Python files change.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. **Build the Frontend**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- In a different shell, navigate to the `pkgs/ui` directory and execute:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
direnv allow
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
- Wait for the frontend to build.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. **Start the Frontend**:
|
|
|
|
|
- To start the frontend, execute:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
npm run dev

# Setting Up Your Git Workflow
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's set up your Git workflow to collaborate effectively:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Register Your Gitea Account Locally**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Execute the following command to add your Gitea account locally:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
tea login add
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
- Fill out the prompt as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
- URL of Gitea instance: `https://gitea.gchq.icu`
|
|
|
|
|
- Name of new Login [gitea.gchq.icu]: `gitea.gchq.icu:7171`
|
|
|
|
|
- Do you have an access token? No
|
|
|
|
|
- Username: YourUsername
|
|
|
|
|
- Password: YourPassword
|
|
|
|
|
- Set Optional settings: No
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. **Git Workflow**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Add your changes to Git using `git add <file1> <file2>`.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Run `nix fmt` to lint your files.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Commit your changes with a descriptive message: `git commit -a -m "My descriptive commit message"`.
|
|
|
|
|
4. Make sure your branch has the latest changes from upstream by executing:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
git fetch && git rebase origin/main --autostash
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
5. Use `git status` to check for merge conflicts.
|
|
|
|
|
6. If conflicts exist, resolve them. Here's a tutorial for resolving conflicts in [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/sourcecontrol/overview#_merge-conflicts).
|
|
|
|
|
7. After resolving conflicts, execute `git merge --continue` and repeat step 5 until there are no conflicts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. **Create a Pull Request**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- To automatically open a pull request that gets merged if all tests pass, execute:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
merge-after-ci
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. **Review Your Pull Request**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Visit https://gitea.gchq.icu and go to the project page. Check under "Pull Requests" for any issues with your pull request.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. **Push Your Changes**:
|
|
|
|
|
- If there are issues, fix them and redo step 2. Afterward, execute:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
git push origin HEAD:YourUsername-main
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
- This will directly push to your open pull request.
|
|
|
|

# Debugging
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When working on the backend of your project, debugging is an essential part of the development process. Here are some methods for debugging and testing the backend of your application:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Test Backend Locally in Devshell with Breakpoints
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To test the backend locally in a development environment and set breakpoints for debugging, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Run the following command to execute your tests and allow for debugging with breakpoints:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
pytest -n0 -s --maxfail=1
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
You can place `breakpoint()` in your Python code where you want to trigger a breakpoint for debugging.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Test Backend Locally in a Nix Sandbox
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To run your backend tests in a Nix sandbox, you have two options depending on whether your test functions have been marked as impure or not:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Running Tests Marked as Impure
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your test functions need to execute `nix build` and have been marked as impure because you can't execute `nix build` inside a Nix sandbox, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
merge-after-ci
|
|
|
|
|
nix run .#impure-checks
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Go to https://gitea.gchq.icu to the project page, and look under "Pull Requests" if there are any issues with it.
|
|
|
|
|
5. If there are issues, fix them and redo step 2. Afterwards execute
|
|
|
|
|
This command will run the impure test functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
git push origin HEAD:MyUserName-main
|
|
|
|
|
### Running Pure Tests
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For test functions that have not been marked as impure and don't require executing `nix build`, you can use the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
nix build .#checks.x86_64-linux.clan-pytest --rebuild
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to directly push to your open pull request
|
|
|
|
|
This command will run all pure test functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Using this template
|
|
|
|
|
### Inspecting the Nix Sandbox
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setup two new gitea accounts.
|
|
|
|
|
One named `ui-asset-bot`, generate an access token for it with all access permissions and set under `settings/actions/secrets` a secret called `BOT_ACCESS_TOKEN` with the token.
|
|
|
|
|
Also edit the file `.gitea/workflows/ui_assets.yaml` and change the `BOT_EMAIL` variable to the email you set for that account.
|
|
|
|
|
The second account is called `merge-bot` edit the file `pkgs/merge-after-ci/default.nix`
|
|
|
|
|
if the name should be different.
|
|
|
|
|
Under Branches set the main branch to protected and add `merge-bot` to whitelisted users for pushing.
|
|
|
|
|
Also set an unprotected file pattern to `**/ui-assets.nix`.
|
|
|
|
|
Also set the option `Enable Status Check` to `build / test (pull_request)`
|
|
|
|
|
Add `merge-bot` and `ui-asset-bot` as collaborators.
|
|
|
|
|
Also set the option `Delete pull request branch after merge by default`
|
|
|
|
|
Also the the default merge style to `Rebase then create merge commit`
|
|
|
|
|
If you need to inspect the Nix sandbox while running tests, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Insert an endless sleep into your test code where you want to pause the execution. For example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
|
|
|
import time
|
|
|
|
|
time.sleep(3600) # Sleep for one hour
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Use `cntr` and `psgrep` to attach to the Nix sandbox. This allows you to interactively debug your code while it's paused. For example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
cntr exec -w your_sandbox_name
|
|
|
|
|
psgrep -a -x your_python_process_name
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These debugging and testing methods will help you identify and fix issues in your backend code efficiently, ensuring the reliability and robustness of your application.

# Using this Template
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To make the most of this template:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Set up a new Gitea account named `ui-asset-bot`. Generate an access token with all access permissions and set it under `settings/actions/secrets` as a secret called `BOT_ACCESS_TOKEN`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Also, edit the file `.gitea/workflows/ui_assets.yaml` and change the `BOT_EMAIL` variable to match the email you set for that account. Gitea matches commits to accounts by their email address, so this step is essential.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Create a second Gitea account named `merge-bot`. Edit the file `pkgs/merge-after-ci/default.nix` if the name should be different. Under "Branches," set the main branch to be protected and add `merge-bot` to the whitelisted users for pushing. Set the unprotected file pattern to `**/ui-assets.nix`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Enable the status check for "build / test (pull_request)."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Add both `merge-bot` and `ui-asset-bot` as collaborators.
|
|
|
|
|
- Set the option to "Delete pull request branch after merge by default."
|
|
|
|
|
- Also, set the default merge style to "Rebase then create merge commit."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With this template, you're well-equipped to build and collaborate on high-quality websites efficiently. Happy coding!.
