RDepot

Open Source Enterprise Management of R and Python Repositories

Running application

Backend (for frontend development)

To develop the frontend with a live preview, you’ll need the backend up and running first.

Start by cloning the backend repository:

https://scm.openanalytics.eu/git/RDepot.git

Once cloned, switch to the develop branch and pull the latest changes (including Git LFS files):

git lfs pull

Next, build the Maven project. This will clean the project, compile it, and prepare everything needed for running alongside frontend project:

mvn clean pre-integration-test

Now move to the Docker setup directory:

cd rdepot-app/src/test/resources/

Pull and build the required Docker images:

docker compose pull && docker compose build

Then start the Docker environment:

docker compose up

After the containers are running, restore the database. Navigate to the scripts directory:

cd rdepot-app/src/test/resources/scripts

Run the restore script:

sh restore.sh

With the backend ready, switch to the frontend project.

Install frontend dependencies:

npm install

Start the development server on port 3001:

npm run dev -- --port 3001

Once everything is up, the live preview will be available at:

http://localhost:3001/

End-to-end testing environment

For E2E tests, only the frontend project is required.

First, pull and build the Docker images used for browser-based testing (Firefox and Chrome):

docker compose -f src/__tests__/end-to-end/config/docker-compose-test-firefox.yml pull && docker compose -f src/__tests__/end-to-end/config/docker-compose-test-firefox.yml up --build
docker compose -f src/__tests__/end-to-end/config/docker-compose-test-chrome.yml pull && docker compose -f src/__tests__/end-to-end/config/docker-compose-test-chrome.yml up --build

Next, run the setup script. This prepares all containers and restores the test database:

npm run test:e2e:setup

Once setup is complete, you can run the end-to-end tests:

npm run test:e2e

The built frontend used during E2E testing can be accessed at:

http://192.168.51.20/
