## How to run it locally?

### Run docker compose or install redis manually

Install docker (on mac: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/)

```sh

docker network create global

docker-compose up -d --build

```

#### If you install redis manually open django-backend/configuration folder and copy `.env.example` to create `.env`. And provide the values for environment variables

    - REDIS_HOST: Redis server host

    - REDIS_PORT: Redis server port

    - REDIS_DB: Redis server db index

    - REDIS_PASSWORD: Redis server password

#### Setup and run backend

Install python, pip and venv (on mac: https://installpython3.com/mac/)

Use python version: 3.8

``` sh

python3 -m venv venv

source ./venv/bin/activate

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

python3 manage.py collectstatic

gunicorn configuration.asgi:application -b 127.0.0.1:5000 -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker

```
