Planning Referral System

This project is the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions Planning Referral System corporate application.

Installation

The recommended way to set up this project for development is using Poetry to install and manage a virtual Python environment. With Poetry installed, change into the project directory and run:

poetry install

Activate the virtualenv like so:

poetry shell

To run Python commands in the activated virtualenv, thereafter run them like so:

python manage.py

Manage new or updating project dependencies with Poetry also, like so:

poetry add newpackage==1.0

Environment variables

This project uses python-dotenv to set environment variables (in a .env file). The following variables are required for the project to run:

DATABASE_URL="postgis://USER:PASSWORD@HOST:5432/DATABASE_NAME"

Variables below may also need to be defined in production (context-dependent):

SECRET_KEY="ThisIsASecretKey"
DEBUG=True
ALLOWED_DOMAINS=".dbca.wa.gov.au,localhost"
CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE=False
SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE=False
EMAIL_HOST="email.host"
EMAIL_PORT=25
REFERRAL_EMAIL_HOST="outlook.office365.com"
REFERRAL_EMAIL_USER="referrals@email.address"
REFERRAL_EMAIL_PASSWORD="password"
REFERRAL_ASSIGNEE_FALLBACK="admin"
PLANNING_EMAILS="referrals@planning.wa.gov.au,referrals@dplh.wa.gov.au"
ASSESSOR_EMAILS="assessor1@dbca.wa.gov.au,assessor2@dbca.wa.gov.au"
SITE_URL="prs.dbca.wa.gov.au"
GEOSERVER_URL="https://geoserver.url/service"
PRS_USER_GROUP="PRS user"
PRS_PWUSER_GROUP="PRS power user"
SLIP_USERNAME="slip_username"
SLIP_PASSWORD="slip_password"
SLIP_ESRI_FS_URL="https://wfs.slip.url.au/endpoint"

Media uploads

By default, PRS assumes that user-uploaded media will be saved to Azure blob storage. To use local storage, set the environment variable LOCAL_MEDIA_STORAGE=True and ensure that a writeable media directory exists in the project directory.

Credentials for Azure should be defined in the following environment variables:

AZURE_ACCOUNT_NAME=name
AZURE_ACCOUNT_KEY=key
AZURE_CONTAINER=container_name

Running

Use runserver to run a local copy of the application:

python manage.py runserver 0:8080

Run console commands manually:

python manage.py shell_plus

Run a single Celery worker alongside the local webserver to test indexing:

celery --app prs2 worker --loglevel INFO --events --without-heartbeat --without-gossip --without-mingle

Note: a message broker service is required for Celery tasks to run; Redis is typically used for this purpose. The CELERY_BROKER_URL env variable should contain the broker URL value. Reference:

https://docs.celeryq.dev/en/stable/getting-started/backends-and-brokers/redis.html#broker-redis

Testing

Run unit tests as follows:

python manage.py test --keepdb -v2 --settings prs2.test-settings

To run tests for e.g. models only:

python manage.py test prs2.referral.test_models --keepdb -v2 --settings prs2.test-settings

To obtain coverage reports:

coverage run --source='.' manage.py test --keepdb -v2 --settings prs2.test-settings
coverage report -m

Docker image

To build a new Docker image from the Dockerfile:

docker image build -t ghcr.io/dbca-wa/prs .
