Flashfood-python

• DevOps project for the course

• Python Bottle Server code for the Flashfood bot.

• This server is for making database transactions and storing the schema and information in the redis database.

• This is a platform where any verified restaurant can come to sell food items. We provide them with our customer base and push offers to customers present in that area that time. Also, a user can come and ask for currently live offers.

• Packages required to run the python server locally.

  • bottle
  • pandas
  • redis
  • googlemaps
  • requests
  • geopy
  • pottery

• To build a docker image, use the dockerfile present in the root directory.

• For running this server, ou can pull the docker image available to docker hub.

  • Pull : docker pull suryavampire/redpython
  • Run : docker run -p 4000:4000 suryavampire/redpython

• To just run the server locally clone this branch and run the following command : python3 server.py

  • The python server assumes that the redis server is running locally. Tries to connect to 0.0.0.0:6379. If their is a different address, it needs to changed appropriately.

• To test the server, as in to test the database transactions run the following command : python3 test.py. The test code assumes that the python server is running locally. If it not the case then pass the appropriate server address in the code.
