Features from the Digital Marketplace platform were migrated to BuyICT.gov.au in May 2022. The DTA no longer maintains a separate Digital Marketplace platform.


Digital Marketplace Buyer Frontend

Frontend buyer application for the digital marketplace.

Setup

Install Virtualenv

sudo easy_install virtualenv

Mac users may need to install cairo and pango (dependencies for weasyprint, the PDF generator).

brew install cairo
brew install pango

Set environment variables

The buyer frontend app requires access to the API backend and AWS. The location and access tokens for these backends is set with environment variables.

For development you can either point the environment variables to use the staging environment's API instance, or use local API instances if you have them running:

export DM_DATA_API_URL=http://localhost:5000
export DM_DATA_API_AUTH_TOKEN=<auth_token_accepted_by_api>
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<access key ID for AWS>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<secret key corresponding to the above key ID>
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=<region for AWS>

Where DM_DATA_API_AUTH_TOKEN is a token accepted by the Data API instance pointed to by DM_API_URL.

The AWS key is currently used for email sending.

Create and activate the virtual environment

Create the virtual environment:

virtualenv ./venv

Activate it:

source ./venv/bin/activate

You should now see (venv) in your prompt. The virtual environment should only need to be created once, but it needs to be activated again if you switch terminal (or repository).

Upgrade dependencies

Install new Python dependencies with pip

pip install -r requirements_for_test.txt

Install frontend dependencies with npm and gulp

npm install
npm run frontend-build:production

Run the tests

To run the whole testsuite:

./scripts/run_tests.sh

To only run the JavaScript tests:

npm test

Run the development server

Every time you open a new terminal, you'll need to set the environment variables and activate the Python virtual environment before you can run the server or tests.

The command to start the server by itself is

python application.py runserver

The buyer app runs on port 5002 by default. Use the app at http://127.0.0.1:5002/

If you want to run the other frontends in a local environment, there's a reverse proxy config that unifies them behind one domain. To use it you need to install lighttpd on your system, then you can run

./scripts/reverse_proxy.sh

Run the other frontends using the normal python application.py runserver commands in other terminals. The Marketplace should now be available at http://localhost:8000/marketplace/

Using FeatureFlags

To use feature flags, check out the documentation in (the README of) digitalmarketplace-utils.

Front-end

Front-end code (both development and production) is compiled using Node and Gulp.

Requirements

You need Node (version 5.5.0 recommended), which will also get you NPM, Node's package management tool.

To check the version you're running, type:

node --version

Installation

To install the required Node modules, type:

npm install

Frontend tasks

NPM is used for all frontend build tasks. The commands available are:

  • npm run frontend-build:development (compile the frontend files for development)
  • npm run frontend-build:production (compile the frontend files for production)
  • npm run frontend-build:watch (watch all frontend files & rebuild when anything changes)
  • npm run frontend-install (install all non-NPM dependancies)

Note: npm run frontend-install is run automatically as a post-install task when you run npm install.

Frontend tests

To run the JavaScript tests, navigate to spec/javascripts/support/ and open LocalTestRunner.html in a browser.

TODO: Add a Gulp task which is run as part of ./scripts/run_tests.sh.
