Install and run PHYS Simulation¶
Before installing PHYS Simulation make sure you install pipenv.
To download PHYS Simulation clone it from the github repository using the following command
$ git clone https://github.com/jearistiz/phys_simulation
Change to the directory where PHYS Simulation is installed
$ cd phys_simulationCreate a virtual environment and install all the requirements using
pipenv(this can take several minutes)$ pipenv install
Activate the virtual environment
$ pipenv shell
Finally, run the web application in your localhost http://0.0.0.0:5700/
$ pipenv run simulation_api
You can manage
HOSTandPORTvariables in the server configuration file~/phys_simulation/config.py.
Note
The project runs on a Uvicorn server. The file in charge of setting up and starting the server is
~/phys_simulation/run.py. Change the options to your prefferred ones.If you run the server locally you can try the frontend and API in the host and port you chose. The frontend is almost self-explanatory.
If you want to try out the API, go to the Examples section. We also explain how to use the API in general terms in the Overview section.
The API has its own client documentation, thanks to FastAPI’s integration with Swagger (formerly OpenAPI). To read this docs, after starting the server go to the resource
localhos:5700/docsorlocalhos:5700/redocand refer to the documentation of the resources starting with/api/.If you want to stop the server, go to the terminal where you started it and use the shortcut
Ctrl + C.If you want to remove the virtual environment after using the app move to
~/phys_simulation/directory and execute$ pipenv --rm
