Running Noki

After completing the setup requirements, follow these steps to run Noki:

1. Install Dependencies

• Navigate to the Noki directory and install the dependencies listed in the requirements.txt file.
• Note: Some packages may be outdated. If you encounter errors, update the packages to their latest versions or to those specified in the error messages.

2. Configure Database Connection

• Ensure you have access to the database by either connecting to the VPN or using a local database.

• You will need to specify the database credentials in the config.py file under the variable POSTGRES_CREDS.

• For a local database, your credentials should look similar to the example below (replace the user and password with your own):

POSTGRES_CREDS = {
  'user': 'your_username',     # Replace with your username
  'password': 'your_password',  # Replace with your password
  'host': 'localhost',
  'port': '5432',
  'database': 'noki'
}

• If you’re accessing the live database, obtain the necessary credentials from the contacts mentioned previously.

3. Run Noki

• Once the above steps are completed, you can run Noki locally:
• You can run the application directly from your Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or from the terminal.
