Getting Started
###############
Installation
************
`Good installation guide <https://meintechblog.de/2024/09/05/andreas-schmitz-joerg-installiert-mein-energieoptimierungssystem/>`_
The project requires Python 3.10 or newer.
Quick Start Guide
-----------------
On Linux (Ubuntu/Debian):
```bash
sudo apt install make
```
On MacOS (requires `Homebrew <https://brew.sh>`_):
```zsh
brew install make
```
Next, adjust `config.py`.
The server can then be started with `make run`. A full overview of the main shortcuts is given by `make help`.
Detailed Instructions
---------------------
All necessary dependencies can be installed via `pip`. Clone the repository and install the required packages with:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Akkudoktor-EOS/EOS
cd EOS
```
Next, create a virtual environment. This serves to store the Python dependencies, which we will install later using `pip`:
```bash
virtualenv .venv
```
Finally, install the Python dependencies for EOS:
```bash
.venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
```
To always use the Python version from the virtual environment, you should activate it before working in EOS:
```bash
source .venv/bin/activate
```
(for Bash users, the default under Linux) or
```zsh
. .venv/bin/activate
```
(if using zsh, primarily for MacOS users).
If `pip install` fails to install the mariadb dependency, the following commands may help:
* Debian/Ubuntu: `sudo apt-get install -y libmariadb-dev`
* MacOS/Homebrew: `brew install mariadb-connector-c`
Followed by a renewed `pip install -r requirements.txt`.
Usage
*****
Adjust `config.py`.
To start the server:
```bash
make run
```
