Question and answer

Installation

1. Install the required packages by running the command pip install -r requirements.txt in your terminal.

Running the Application

1. Navigate to the directory containing your main.py file. If your main.py is inside the app directory, you should be in the same directory as the app folder.
2. Run the command uvicorn app.main:app --reload in your terminal. This command tells Uvicorn to run your application, which is located in the app.main module, and the --reload flag enables hot reloading, which means the server will automatically update whenever you make changes to your code.

After running the command, you should see output indicating that the server is running. You can then access the application by navigating to http://localhost:8000 in your web browser.

Running the Tests

1. Navigate to the root directory of the project (the same directory as the app folder).
2. Run the command pytest in your terminal.

This will discover and run all test cases in the tests directory. Make sure you have the pytest package installed. If not, you can install it with pip install pytest.

Running the Application with Docker Compose

1. Build the Docker images by running the command docker-compose build in your terminal.
2. Start the application by running the command docker-compose up in your terminal.

After running these commands, you should see output indicating that the application and the MongoDB database are running. You can then access the application by navigating to http://localhost:8000 in your web browser.

To stop the application, press Ctrl+C in your terminal. To remove the containers entirely, run docker-compose down.
