Prerequisites

Ensure that the following dependencies are installed with the specified versions:

1. Python 3.9
2. Node.js v18
3. FFmpeg v5.0
4. Docker v2 or later: If Docker is not already installed, download and install Docker Desktop from the official Docker website.

Update dependencies

To update Python dependencies you need to run npm install in the target deployment environment:

$ docker run -it --platform="linux/amd64" --rm -v $(pwd):/app -w /app \
    registry.cern.ch/inveniosoftware/almalinux:1 \
    sh -c "dnf install -y openldap-devel && pip install -e . && pip freeze > requirements.new.txt"

Installation and Setup

1. Clone the Repository

Begin by cloning this repository and navigating to the project directory:

git clone https://github.com/CERNDocumentServer/cds-videos.git
cd cds-videos

2. Start Docker

Use Docker Compose to start the required containers in detached mode:

docker compose up -d

3. Run Setup Scripts

The scripts folder contains the necessary setup scripts to initialize and configure your instance.

1. Bootstrap Script

Initialize the environment by running the bootstrap script:

./scripts/bootstrap

Troubleshooting:

These are the macOS solutions using brew for installation.

If you encounter the error pg_config executable not found, you may need to install PostgreSQL and update the PATH:

brew install postgresql@14
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/homebrew/opt/postgresql@14/bin

For errors related to missing cmake and ninja tools ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1 ... "cmake>=3.14" "ninja>=1.5":

Install cmake and ninja with the following command:

brew install cmake ninja

If you encounter errors with cryptography and OpenSSL, ensure that OpenSSL version 3 is installed:

brew install openssl@3

2. Setup Script

Run the setup script to finalize the installation and configuration:

./scripts/setup

Troubleshooting: If you encounter the error connection to server at "localhost", port 5432 failed: FATAL: role ".." does not exist, it may indicate an issue with the database role or a port conflict. To diagnose:

1. First, connect to the Docker database container and verify that the expected role exists and the database is working correctly.

   docker exec -it <db_container_name> psql -U <username> -d <database>

2. If the role is present and the database is functional, check for port conflicts on port 5432:

   lsof -i :5432

Terminate any conflicting process if found, and restart Docker.

4. Local Development

To facilitate local development, open multiple terminal sessions and run the following commands separately:

• Start Web Server This command launches the web server:

  ./scripts/server

• Start Celery Workers Celery workers are required for background task processing:

  ./scripts/celery

• Watch Frontend Code This command watches frontend code for changes and rebuilds assets as needed:

  ./scripts/assets-watch

Testing

To run the tests, follow these steps:

1. Activate your Python environment:

2. Set up the test environment:

   ./scripts/setup-tests

3. Run the tests:

   ./run-tests.sh

   Running Specific Tests

   To run a specific test file or function, use the following command:

   ./run-tests.sh tests/unit/test_example.py -k "test_specific_function"

Publish Video through REST API

Generate a Personal Access Token

• Navigate to the CDS Videos platform.
• Click on your user info in the top-right corner.
• Go to Applications and create a new Personal Access Token.
• Copy the token and store it securely.

Using Bruno

If you'd like to use the pre-configured REST API collection in Bruno, ensure you have the application installed. Follow the steps below to set up and use the collection:

1. Install Bruno:

   Visit the official Bruno documentation or repository and install the application.

2. Import the Collection:

   • Download this Bruno collection.
   • Open Bruno and import downloaded collection.
   • Create an environment for the collection.
   • Configure the environment by adding a variable named baseURL. Set its value to your API base URL (e.g., http://localhost:5000).

3. Configure Authentication in Bruno:

   • In Bruno, open the Collection Settings.
   • Go to Auth and set the Bearer Token to your Personal Access Token.
