 $ python unittests.py 

If you get requests module import error make sure you install it using below command.

 $ pip3 install requests==2.25.1

Setup

Follow below steps to setup your environment locally. You can use also clone dev branch or use it for reference as other branches have production related changes and dev branch should work if you have docker running.

  • Python 3
  • Docker/Docker-Compose (Optional)
  • All the python dependencies are listed in requirements.txt.

Docker: Setting up the server

  1. If you have docker/docker-compose installed and running this setup is recommended, otherwise follow non-dockerized setup.
  2. From your terminal go to main project directory i.e. the Netflix-Shows project directory that contains the docker-compose.yml file.
  3. Type docker-compose up --build to start the server. You will see docker building the service and starting the Fast API server.
  4. Go to your browser and copy-paste http://localhost:9001. If you see a welcome message then you've successfully setup the server and ready to start using the API.

Non-dockerized: Setting up the server

  1. Create a virtual environment using below command.
    $ python3 -m venv venv
  2. Activate your virtual environment.
    $ source/venv/bin/active
  3. If you are on Windows or need more help with virtual environments follow this link.
  4. From your terminal go ~/Netflix-Shows/ directory, you should be in the directory that contains requirements.txt.
  5. Install all the requirements using below command and make sure your virtual environment is active.
    $ pip install requirements.txt
  6. Start the Fast API server using below command. You should see
    $ python main.py
  7. Go to your browser and copy-paste http://localhost:9001. If you see a welcome message then you've successfully setup the server and ready to start using the API.
  1. This project uses Postgres server hosted on Heroku. You can view the data clip here: https://data.heroku.com/dataclips/llzjpvexielskjurztdntndfttah
  2. These are setups to setup database locally. Comment the Heroku DB variables in database.py and uncomment local DB variables. Once your API server is setup start your Postgresql server.
  3. Go to ~/Netflix-Shows/netflix-shows and run python backfill.py to import all the data into your database.
