• Initial codebase to start from

Using this template

1. Create a new repository from this template:

   • In Omukk Repos, navigate to this repository
   • Click the "Use this template" button at the top of the page
   • Choose "Create a new repository"
   • Fill in your new repository details and click "Create Repository"

2. Clone your new repository:

   cd <repo>
   

Development and Testing

1. Install dependencies:

   poetry install
   poetry run pre-commit install
   

2. Set up environment variables: Create a .env file using the .env.example file as a reference.

3. Run database server:

   docker compose up db -d
   

4. Run Dev Server:

   docker compose up backend --build
   

5. Stop Database Server:

   docker compose down db
   

Development Rules

• Create a separate branch from dev and create a PR to dev after making changes

• Branch names must be meaningful. Check docs for more details

• Always run black and isort to maintain code consistency (this is done automatically using pre-commit hooks)-

  poetry run isort app main.py
  poetry run black app main.py
  # Make sure to run isort first
  

• Use static type checking using mypy if you feel like it (It is recommended but not mandatory). Static type checking might help you to identify critical bugs.
