🎯 frontEASE - Frontend for Effortless Algorithmic Solution Evolution

🚀 frontEASE is the frontend component of the EASE framework, providing a user-friendly interface to interact with the backend services. It is built using C# and integrates seamlessly with the backend to offer a cohesive user experience.

Disclaimer

This is an open beta version of the framework.

How to run it - Windows

Prerequisites

Git installed to clone this repository.
Docker installed for containerized deployment.

Installation

Clone the Repository:

From the command line at the location where you want to have the project (e.g. C:\Users\JohnDoe)
```
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/TBU-AILab/frontEASE.git
```
Go into the project directory
```
cd frontEASE
```

Create .env file In the root folder (where readme file is located), create a file named .env - the file must have the following structure:

# If you change the values for user and password, you will need to change
# the connection string in appsettings.json and appsettings.Development.json
POSTGRES_USER="postgres" # required
POSTGRES_PASSWORD="root" # required

# Options: true | false
# If true, the database will be deleted and re-created with the seed data
# If false, the database will be used as is
SEED_DB="true" # true for the initialization

# Set these to the URL that matches server where the backend runs on if its not the local machine from which you access it
API_BASE_URL="http://localhost:4000"
PYTHON_BASE_URL="http://localhost:8086"

Compose docker containers

The docker has to be running for this step.
- If running locally for development, use:
```
docker compose up -d
```
- If running in production, use:
```
docker compose -f .\docker-compose.yml up -d
```
