![No step on snek](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4097471/155035647-ad04f2ab-b687-4e80-9f0b-0a11b0693ca9.jpeg)

## Summary
This repo contains the source code for [Pythonistas Meetups](https://www.meetup.com/pythonistas/). For the repos that predate this one, they'll be included as submodules.

### Caveat Emptor
Very little of this gets tested on Windows hosts. Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is used where necessary with the default Ubuntu LTS install.

Be the change et al if Windows is your main and you wanna raise a PR with broad instructions on getting tooling working under Windows (e.g., docker, poetry, playwright.)

## Usage
### Mac and Linux users
Development environments and tooling are first-class citizens on macOS and *nix. For Windows faithfuls, please setup WSL below.

### Windows Subsytem for Linux (wsl)
WSL allows Windows users to run Linux (Unix) [locally at a system-level](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/compare-versions). All of the standard tooling is used and community guides can be followed without standard Windows caveats (e.g., escaping file paths, GNU utilities missing, etc.)
* Install from the [Setup](#setup) section
* Enable
* Start Menu > search for "Turn Windows Features On" > open > toggle "Windows Subsystem for Linux"
* Restart
* M1 Macs only (Intel Macs and native Windows boxes need not apply)
* Revert WSL 2 to WSL 1 due to nested virtualization not being available at a hardware level
```bash
wsl --set-default-version 1
```
* Docker won't run without paravirtualization enabled, but the rest of the development environment will work as expected
* Install Ubuntu
```bash
# enable default distribution (Ubuntu)
wsl --install ubuntu
```
* Start Linux and prep for environment setup
```bash
# launch Ubuntu
ubuntu

# upgrade packages (as root: `sudo -s`)
apt update && apt upgrade -y

# create standard user
adduser
visudo

# search for 'Allow root to run any commands anywhere', then append identical line with new user
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
ALL=(ALL) ALL

# Allow members of group sudo to execute any command
%sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
```
* Additional configuration options
* Configuration locations
* WSL 1: `/etc/wsl.conf`
* WSL 2: `~/.wslconfig`
```bash
# set default user
[user]
default=

# mounts host drive at /mnt/c/
[automount]
enabled = true
options = "uid=1000,gid=1000"

# WSL2-specific options
[wsl2]
memory = 8GB # Limits VM memory in WSL 2
processors = 6 # Makes the WSL 2 VM use two virtual processors
```
* After making changes to the configuration file, WSL needs to be shutdown for [8 seconds](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/wsl-config#the-8-second-rule)
* `wsl --shutdown`
* **OPTIONAL**: Change home directory to host Windows' home
```bash
# copy dotfiles to host home directory
cp $HOME/.* /mnt/c/Users/

# edit /etc/passwd
:x:1000:1000:,,,:/mnt/c/Users/:/bin/bash
```

### asdf
* Install from the [Setup](#setup) section
* WSL/Ubuntu Linux dependencies
```bash
sudo apt update && sudo apt install \
make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev \
libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev wget \
curl llvm libncursesw5-dev xz-utils tk-dev \
libxml2-dev libxmlsec1-dev libffi-dev liblzma-dev
```
* Fedora dependencies
```bash
sudo dnf install -y bzip2-devel libsqlite3x-devel
```
* All operating systems
```bash
# add python plugin
asdf plugin-add python

# install stable python
asdf install python latest

# uninstall version
asdf uninstall python 3.9.6

# refresh symlinks for installed python runtimes
asdf reshim python

# set stable to system python
asdf global python latest

# optional: local python (e.g., python 3.9.10)
cd $work_dir
asdf list-all python 3.9
asdf install python 3.9.10
asdf local python 3.9.10

# verify python shim in use
asdf current

# check installed python
asdf list python
```

### pip
If a basic virtual environment (`venv`) and `requirements.txt` are all that's needed, can use built-in tools.
```bash
# create a virtual environment via python
## built-in
python3 -m venv .venv

## faster
python3 -m pip install virtualenv # _or_ pipx install virtualenv
virtualenv .venv

# activate virtual environment
source .venv/bin/activate

# install dependencies
python3 -m pip install requests inquirer

# generate requirements.txt
python3 -m pip freeze > requirements.txt

# exit virtual environment
deactivate
```

### Poetry
* **NOTE**: it's possible to use the built-in `.venv` virtual environment (e.g., troubleshooting `SolverProblemError` dependency hell)
```bash
poetry env use .venv/bin/python
```
* Install from the [Setup](#setup) section
* Normal usage
```bash
# Install (modifies $PATH)
curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | $(which python3) - # append `--no-modify-path` to EOL if you know what you're doing

# Change config
poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true # .venv in `pwd`
poetry config experimental.new-installer false # fixes JSONDecodeError on Python3.10

# Activate virtual environment (venv)
poetry shell

# Deactivate venv
exit # ctrl-d

# Install multiple libraries
poetry add google-auth google-api-python-client

# Initialize existing project
poetry init

# Run script and exit environment
poetry run python your_script.py

# Install from requirements.txt
poetry add `cat requirements.txt`

# Update dependencies
poetry update

# Remove library
poetry remove google-auth

# Generate requirements.txt
poetry export -f requirements.txt --output requirements.txt --without-hashes

# Uninstall Poetry (e.g., troubleshooting)
POETRY_UNINSTALL=1 bash -c 'curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/python-poetry/poetry/master/get-poetry.py' | $(which python3) -
```

### Docker
* Install from the [Setup](#setup) section
* Usage
```bash
# clean build (remove `--no-cache` for speed)
docker-compose build --no-cache --parallel

# start container
docker-compose up --remove-orphans -d

# exec into container
docker attach hello

# run command inside container
python hello.py

# stop container
docker-compose stop

# destroy container and network
docker-compose down
```

### Playwright
* Install from the [Setup](#setup) section
* Usage
```bash
# install
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install playwright
playwright install

# download new browsers (chromedriver, gecko)
npx playwright install

# generate code via macro
playwright codegen wikipedia.org
```

### Django
* Follow the official [Django Docker Compose article](https://docs.docker.com/samples/django/)
* `cd django`
* Generate the server boilerplate code
```bash
docker-compose run web django-admin startproject composeexample .
```
* Fix upstream import bug and whitelist all hosts/localhost
```bash
$ vim composeexample/settings.py
import os
...
ALLOWED_HOSTS = ["*"]
```
* Profit
```bash
docker-compose up
```
* **Optional**: Comment out Django exclusions for future commits
* Assumed if extracting Django boilerplate from template and creating a new repo
```bash
# .gitignore
# ETC
# django/composeexample/
# django/data/
# django/manage.py
```

### Flask

### FastAPI

### Kubernetes (k8s)
* Easiest way to set up a local single node cluster is via one of the following:
* [Rancher Desktop](https://docs.rancherdesktop.io/getting-started/installation)
* [minikube](https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/)
* Incidentally, `minikube` ships with the Kubernetes Dashboard
```bash
minikube dashboard
```
* The boilerplate [Terraform plan](#terraform) below hasn't been tested against `minikube`
* [multipass](https://multipass.run/) with [microk8s](https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/getting-started-with-kubernetes-ha#1-overview)
* Add aliases to `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`
```bash
# k8s
alias k="kubectl"
alias kc="kubectl config use-context"
alias kns='kubectl config set-context --current --namespace'
alias kgns="kubectl config view --minify --output 'jsonpath={..namespace}' | xargs printf '%s\n'"
KUBECONFIG="$HOME/.kube/config:$HOME/.kube/kubeconfig:$HOME/.kube/k3s.yaml"
```
* CLI/TUI (terminal user interface) management of k8s
* [k9s](https://github.com/derailed/k9s#installation)
* Built-in help: type `?`
* Main Screen: `:pod`
![Main screen](img/k9s_main.png)
* Describe a pod: `d`
![Describe a pod](img/k9s_describe.png)
* Delete a pod:
* `ctrl-d`
* Replicas rebuild
![Delete a pod](img/k9s_delete_pod.png)
* Remove resource (permanent)
* `:deploy`
* `ctrl-d`
![Remove resource](img/k9s_remove_res.png)
* [POC](https://itnext.io/simplest-minimal-k8s-app-tutorial-with-rancher-desktop-in-5-min-5481edb9a4a5)
```bash
git clone https://github.com/jwsy/simplest-k8s.git
k config get-contexts # should have `rancher-desktop` selected
kc rancher-desktop # switch to rancher context if not
k apply -f simplest-k8s
k delete -f simplest-k8s
```
* Navigate to https://jade-shooter.rancher.localhost/ in Chrome
* Allow self-signed cert
* Profit 💸

### Terraform
* **NOTES**:
* This section depends on Kubernetes and a `~/.kubeconfig` from [above](#kubernetes-k8s)
* `NodePort` was used instead of `LoadBalancer` for `service.type`
* [MetalLB is a stretch goal](https://stackoverflow.com/a/71047314) for future deployments
* Install `terraform` via `asdf
```bash
# terraform
asdf plugin-add terraform
asdf install terraform latest
```
* Add aliases to `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`
```bash
# ~/.bashrc
alias tf='terraform'
alias tfi='terraform init -backend-config=./state.conf'
alias tfa='terraform apply'
alias tfp='terraform plan'
alias tfpn='terraform plan -refresh=false'
```
* Navigate to `./terraform/` and [initialize](https://www.terraform.io/cli/commands/init) the `terraform` working directory
```bash
cd terraform/
tfi
```
* Create an [execution plan](https://www.terraform.io/cli/commands/plan)
```bash
tfp
```
* [Apply/execute the actions](https://www.terraform.io/cli/commands/apply) from Terraform plan
```bash
tfa
```
* Navigate to `http://localhost:`
* Port can be found via `kubectl`
```bash
k get svc # 80:31942/TCP
```
* [Tear down deployment](https://www.terraform.io/cli/commands/destroy)
```bash
tf destroy
```
* Real-time view of pod removal
![Real-time view of pod removal](img/k9s_termination.png)

## GitHub Actions
### Update submodules recursively
* Add the submodule to the downstream repo
```bash
git submodule add https://github.com/pythoninthegrass/automate_boring_stuff.git
git commit -m "automate_boring_stuff submodule"
git push
```
* Create a personal access token called `PRIVATE_TOKEN_GITHUB` with `repo` permissions on the downstream repo
* `repo:status`
* `repo_deployment`
* `public_repo`
* Add that key to the original repo
* Settings > Security > Secrets > Actions
* New repository secret
* Setup a new Action workflow
* Actions > New Workflow
* Choose a workflow > set up a workflow yourself
```bash
# main.yml
# SOURCE: https://stackoverflow.com/a/68213855
name: Send submodule updates to parent repo

on:
push:
branches:
- main
- master

jobs:
update:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
repository: username/repo_name
token: ${{ secrets.PRIVATE_TOKEN_GITHUB }}

- name: Pull & update submodules recursively
run: |
git submodule update --init --recursive
git submodule update --recursive --remote
- name: Commit
run: |
git config user.email "[email protected]"
git config user.name "GitHub Actions - update submodules"
git add --all
git commit -m "Update submodules" || echo "No changes to commit"
git push
```

## Debugging
### asdf
**No version set for command python**
* Make sure `python` or `python3` isn't aliased in `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`

[bash - Is it possible to check where an alias was defined? - Unix & Linux Stack Exchange](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/322459/is-it-possible-to-check-where-an-alias-was-defined/544970#544970)

### Docker
* Watch logs in real-time: `docker-compose logs -tf --tail="50" hello`
* Check exit code
```bash
$ docker-compose ps
Name Command State Ports
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
docker_python python manage.py runserver ... Exit 0
```

### PATH
* `asdf`, `poetry`, and `python` all need to be sourced in your shell `$PATH` in a specific order
* `asdf` stores its Python shims in `~/.asdf/shims`
* `poetry` lives in `~/.local/bin`
```bash
export ASDF_DIR="$HOME/.asdf"
export PATH="$ASDF_DIR/shims:$HOME/.local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
```
* Furthermore, any aliases or alias files need to be sourced as well
```bash
. "$ASDF_DIR/asdf.sh"
. "$ASDF_DIR/completions/asdf.bash"
. /usr/local/etc/profile.d/poetry.bash-completion
```
### Terraform
* [Verbose logging](https://www.terraform.io/cli/config/environment-variables) and redirection to a file
```bash
export TF_LOG="trace" # unset via "off"
export TF_LOG_PATH="$HOME/Downloads/tf.log" # `~` doesn't expand
```
* [Log levels](https://www.terraform.io/internals/debugging)
* TRACE
* DEBUG
* INFO
* WARN
* ERROR
* `Error: cannot re-use a name that is still in use`
> I think I resolved the issue. This is what I did: 1) mv the terraform.tfstate to another name, 2) mv the terraform.tfstate.backup to terraform.tfstate, and 3) run 'terraform refresh' command to confirm the state is synchronized, and 4) run 'terraform apply' to delete/create the resource. I will mark your reply as the answer, as it gives me the clue for solving the issue. Thanks! – ozmhsh Dec 9, 2021 at 4:57
