Note: this setup should be run under a Linux environment (either WSL or Linux distribution), it is not guaranteed to work on MacOS.
Run the following command to set up a new environment
bin/asdinstall
You might be prompted to install python3, python3-venv or node. The installation might take a few minutes, be patient.
Note: If you are using WSL, the installation might be faster if you put this project under the Linux path instead of the Windows path. npm tends to work slower over a network connection.
| Bad Example | Good Example |
|---|---|
| /mnt/d/Users/Wangdawei/VE-450-Capstone | /home/wangdawei/VE-450-Capstone |
Then you should activate the python virtual environment:
source env/bin/activate
After that, you can use the following command to setup a local website
bin/asdrun
After a few seconds, an ip address, together with a port, will appear in the command line and you can visit it in your browser.
Note: If you did not change the javascript file, you can comment out line 14 npx webpack in bin/asdrun to save time from compiling the bundled js files.
