Backend

This repository contains the backend code for the application. It utilizes FastAPI to quickly create a RESTful API that exposes the endpoints of the route optimizer.

Getting Started

Directory Structure

  • The code for the Python application is located in the src directory. For further information, refer to the src README.
  • Package management is handled with pipenv, and the dependencies are listed in the Pipfile.
  • Since the application is designed to be deployed in a container, the Dockerfile is provided to build the image.

Setting Up the Development Environment

To set up your development environment using pipenv, follow these steps:

  1. Install pipenv by running:

    sudo apt install pipenv
    
  2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

    pipenv shell
    
  3. Install the dependencies listed in the Pipfile:

    pipenv install
    
  4. The virtual environment will be created under:

    ~/.local/share/virtualenvs/...
    

Deployment

To deploy the backend docker container, we use kubernetes. Modifications to the backend are automatically pushed to a two-stage environment through the CI pipeline. See [deployment/README](deployment/README.md] for further information.

The deployment configuration is included as a submodule in the deployment directory. The standalone repository is under https://git.kluster.moll.re/anydev/anyway-backend-deployment/.
