# "Quick Start" Guide
The following description applies to Ubuntu and similar debian based Linux distributions.
## Prerequisites
These are the things you need to do/install before you can get started working on Uni2work.
### Install german locale
You will need to install the german locale at compile time.
Install:
- Edit `/etc/locale.gen` as root and uncomment/add the line `de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8`
- Save the file and run `sudo locale-gen`
### Clone repository
Clone this repository and navigate into it
```sh
$ git clone https://gitlab.cip.ifi.lmu.de/jost/UniWorX.git && cd UniWorX
```
### `LDAP`
LDAP is needed to handle logins.
Install:
```sh
sudo apt-get install slapd ldap-utils
```
### `PostgreSQL`
PostgreSQL will serve as database for Uni2work.
Install:
```sh
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql
```
Switch to user *postgres* (got created during installation):
```sh
$ sudo -i -u postgres
```
Add new database user *uniworx*:
```sh
$ createuser --interactive
```
You'll get a prompt:
```sh
Enter name of role to add: uniworx
Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y [user must be superuser to create extensions]
Password: uniworx
...
```
Create database *uniworx*:
```sh
$ psql -c 'create database uniworx owner uniworx'
$ psql -c 'create database uniworx_test owner uniworx'
```
After you added the database switch back to your own user with `Ctrl + D`.
To properly access the database you now need to add a new linux user called *uniworx*. Enter "uniworx" as the password.
```sh
$ sudo adduser uniworx
```
### `Stack`
Stack is a toolbox for "Haskellers" to aid in developing Haskell projects.
Install:
```sh
$ curl -sSL https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh
```
Setup stack and install dependencies. This needs to be run from inside the directory you cloned this repository to:
```sh
$ stack setup
```
During this step or the next you might get an error that says something about missing C libraries for `ldap` and `lber`. You can install these using
```sh
$ sudo apt-get install libsasl2-dev libldap2-dev
```
If you get an error that says *You need to install postgresql-server-dev-X.Y for building a server-side extension or libpq-dev for building a client-side application.*
Go ahead and install `libpq-dev` with
```sh
$ sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
```
Other packages you might need to install during this process:
```sh
$ sudo apt-get install pkg-config
$ sudo apt-get install libsodium-dev
```
### `Node` & `npm`
Node and Npm are needed to compile the frontend.
Install:
```sh
$ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -
$ sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
```
Build the app:
```sh
$ npm run build
```
This might take a few minutes... if not hours... be prepared.
install yesod:
```sh
$ stack install yesod-bin --install-ghc
```
### Add dummy data to the database
After building the app you can prepare the database and add some dummy data:
```sh
$ ./db.sh -f
```
## Run Uni2work
```sh
$ npm run start
```
This will compile both frontend and backend and will start Uni2work in development mode (might take a few minutes the first time). It will keep running and will watch any file changes to automatically re-compile the application if necessary.
If you followed the steps above you should now be able to visit http://localhost:3000 and login as one of the accounts from the Development-Logins dropdown.
