Development

Setup

The requirements necessary to use this project on a development machine are:

sudo apt-get install git python3 python3-venv postgresql postgresql-contrib

Python environment

Create Python virtual environment:

python3 -m venv rewards

Set some environment variables upon activation:

/home/username/dev/venvs/rewards/bin/activate

export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=rewardsweb.settings.development

Activate Python environment:

source rewards/bin/activate

Adding an alias can be useful:

~/.bashrc

alias 'rwds'='cd /home/username/dev/rewards-suite/rewardsweb;source /home/username/dev/venvs/rewards/bin/activate'

Initial packages installation:

(rewards) debian:~/dev/rewards-suite/rewardsweb$ pip install -r requirements/development.txt
(rewards) debian:~/dev/rewards-suite/rewardsweb$ pip install -r requirements/contract.txt

Run development server

python manage.py runserver

PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL setup in development

Database creation on development machine:

root@debian:~# su - postgres
postgres@debian:~# createdb rewards_db

Database user setup on development machine (CREATEDB is needed for running tests, while pg_trgm extension is used for determining the similarity of text based on trigram matching):

postgres@debian:~# psql
postgres=# CREATE USER rewards_user WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'mypassword';
postgres=# ALTER USER rewards_user CREATEDB;
postgres=# ALTER DATABASE rewards_db OWNER TO rewards_user;
postgres=# \connect rewards_db
postgres=# CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_trgm;

Finally, under rewards web Python environemnt:

python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

DaisyUI

Follow the instructions found here <https://daisyui.com/docs/install/django/>. One of the alternatives to watchman is entr (you can install it on Debain based systems with sudo apt-get install entr), invoke the following trigger build/watch command to use it:

$ ls core/static/css/*.css | entr core/static/css/tailwindcss \
  -i core/static/css/input.css -o core/static/css/style.css \
  --config core/static/css/tailwind.config.js --minify

Smart contract

Compile

After you activated the Python environment, you can compile smart contract by issuing the following commands:

cd rewardsweb
algokit compile py contract/contract.py --out-dir artifacts

Deploy, fund, and setup dApp

Here’s a shortcat Django management command that will deploy generated smart contract on the blockchain, fund the related account with required ALGO, and finally set up the dApp with rewards token ID and claim period duration values retrieved from the environemnt variables:

python manage.py deploy_dapp testnet

Tests

Python

Run all tests:

cd /home/username/dev/rewards-suite/rewardsweb
source /home/username/dev/venvs/rewards/bin/activate
python -m pytest -v  # or just pytest -v

Run tests matching pattern:

pytest -v -k test_contributor_model  # pytest -vvv for more verbose output
