bibbox/azizi-onadata repository overview

⁠Ona Platform

Collect, Analyze and Share Data!

.. image:: https://travis-ci.org/onaio/onadata.svg?branch=master⁠ :target: https://travis-ci.org/onaio/onadata⁠

⁠About

Ona is derived from the excellent formhub <http://github.com/SEL-Columbia/formhub>_ platform developed by the Sustainable Engineering Lab at Columbia University.

⁠Installation

See the installation documentation <https://api.ona.io/static/docs/install.html>_.

⁠Docker

Install Docker <https://www.docker.com/get-docker>_ and Docker Compose <https://docs.docker.com/compose/>_.

.. code-block:: sh

docker-compose up

# create super user
# -----------------
docker exec -it onadata_web_1 bash

# activate virtual envirenment
source /srv/.virtualenv/bin/activate

python manage.py createsuperuser

It should be accessible via http://localhost:8000⁠. The settings are in onadata/settings/docker.py <onadata/settings/docker.py>_.

On registration check the console for the activation links, the default email backend is django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend. See Django Docs <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/email/>_ for details.

⁠Contributing

If you would like to contribute code please read Contributing Code to Ona Data <https://github.com/onaio/onadata/wiki/Contributing-Code-to-OnaData>_.

Edit top level requirements in the file requirements/base.in <requirements/base.in>. Use pip-compile <https://github.com/nvie/pip-tools> to update requirements/base.pip <requirements/base.pip>_. You will need to update requirements.pip and set lxml==3.6.0, for some unknown reason pip-compile seems to pick a lower version of lxml when openpyxl requires lxml>=3.3.4.

.. code-block:: sh

pip-compile --output-file requirements/base.pip requirements/base.in

⁠Code Structure

• api - This app provides the API functionality mostly made up of viewsets

• logger - This app serves XForms to and receives submissions from ODK Collect and Enketo.

• viewer - This app provides a csv and xls export of the data stored in logger. This app uses a data dictionary as produced by pyxform. It also provides a map and single survey view.

• main - This app is the glue that brings logger and viewer together.

⁠Localization

To generate a locale from scratch (ex. Spanish)

.. code-block:: sh

django-admin.py makemessages -l es -e py,html,email,txt ;
for app in {main,viewer} ; do cd onadata/apps/${app} && django-admin.py makemessages -d djangojs -l es && cd - ; done

To update PO files

.. code-block:: sh

django-admin.py makemessages -a ;
for app in {main,viewer} ; do cd onadata/apps/${app} && django-admin.py makemessages -d djangojs -a && cd - ; done

To compile MO files and update live translations

.. code-block:: sh

django-admin.py compilemessages ;
for app in {main,viewer} ; do cd onadata/apps/${app} && django-admin.py compilemessages && cd - ; done

⁠Api Documentation

Generate the API documentation and serve via Django using:

.. code-block:: sh

cd docs
make html
python manage.py collectstatic

Generate sphinx docs for new code using autodoc <http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/invocation.html#invocation-of-sphinx-apidoc>_.

Run sphinx in autobuild mode using:

.. code-block:: sh

sphinx-autobuild docs docs/_build/html

Requires sphinx-autobuild, install with pip install sphinx-autobuild.

⁠Django Debug Toolbar

• $ pip install django-debug-toolbar
• Use/see onadata/settings/debug_toolbar_settings/py
• Access api endpoint on the browser and use .debug as the format extension e.g /api/v1/projects.debug

⁠Upgrading existing installation to django 1.9+

Requirements

• Postgres 9.4 or higher
• xcode-select version 2343 or higher

Upgrading from a pervious Ona setup Ensure you upgrade all your pip requirements using the following command:

.. code-block:: sh

pip install -r requirements/base.pip

Fake initial migration of guardian, django_digest, registration. Migrate contenttypes app first.

.. code-block:: sh

python manage.py migrate contenttypes
python manage.py migrate --fake-initial django_digest
python manage.py migrate --fake-initial guardian
python manage.py migrate --fake-initial registration
python manage.py migrate

Major django changes affecting Ona

• The DATABASES settings key depricates the use of the autocommit setting in the OPTIONS dictionary.
