Make Post Sell
==============
The `Make Post Sell <https://www.makepostsell.com>`_ monolith platform service.
You can use the SaaS or self-host!
Our `blog acts as our user guide <https://blog.makepostsell.com/>`_ & also uses ``make_post_sell``!
Quick Start: Operating a Server with PyPI or Source Code
==========================================================
Before you start, navigate to the directory where you want to install ``make_post_sell`` database & files.
This Makefile-based workflow lets you choose between installing ``make_post_sell`` from PyPI packages or directly from the source code (editable mode). Both flows create a virtual environment in ``./env`` and store configuration and SQLite data in the persistent ``./data`` directory.
1. **Install make_post_sell**
- **PyPI Installation:**
Download the Makefile and run::
wget "https://git.unturf.com/engineering/make-post-sell/make_post_sell/-/raw/master/Makefile"
make install-from-pypi
- **Source Installation (Editable Mode):**
Clone the repository and run::
git clone ssh://git@git.unturf.com:2222/engineering/make-post-sell/make_post_sell.git
make install-from-source
- **Production Installation (Non‑Editable):**
For production use (non‑editable even from source), run::
git clone ssh://git@git.unturf.com:2222/engineering/make-post-sell/make_post_sell.git
make install-from-source-prod
2. **Activate the Virtual Environment**
Before running any commands, activate the virtual environment::
source env/bin/activate
3. **Start the Development Server**
You'll want to configure the system in ``data/development.ini``.
Typically I control most stuff with environment vars, for example ``vars.sh``::
# boto3 style credentials for s3/digital-ocean spaces.
# this is for storing content & physical products.
export MPS_APP_MAIN_BUCKET="removed"
export MPS_APP_SECURE_UPLOADS_ACCESS_KEY="removed"
export MPS_APP_SECURE_UPLOADS_SECRET_KEY="removed"
# stripe keys for collecting credit cards & crypto.
export MPS_TEST_STRIPE_PUBLIC_API_KEY="pk_test_removed"
export MPS_TEST_STRIPE_SECRET_API_KEY="sk_test_removed"
# the root domain acts as a SaaS for many shop domains!
export MAKE_POST_SELL_ROOT_DOMAIN="example.com"
export MAKE_POST_SELL_ROOT_URL="http://example.com:6501"
With the virtual environment active, start the server::
source vars.sh
make serve
Then browse to `http://127.0.0.1:6501/ <http://127.0.0.1:6501/>`_ to view the app.
Running Tests
-------------
We currently use `pytest`:
.. code-block:: bash
make test
SQL Migrations
===============
If your deployment is brand new, you don't need to run any migrations.
Otherwise, it should be safe to run this at anytime to catch your database up:
.. code-block:: bash
alembic -c development.ini upgrade head
To look at the current revision and the history run these:
.. code-block:: bash
alembic -c development.ini history
alembic -c development.ini current
If you ever want to cut a new migration script, you can run this:
.. code-block:: bash
alembic -c development.ini revision -m "Added email_id column to User table."
Then you can edit / modify the generated ``.py`` file with your changes.
You can also autogenerate a new migration script using `--autogenerate`.
Alembic will prepare a migration script by comparing the state of the
database with the state of the model:
.. code-block:: bash
alembic -c development.ini revision --autogenerate -m "autogenerated indicies."
You should review the recommended migration script before `upgrade`.
misc
====
You may source the new Python virtual environment during development:
.. code-block:: bash
# source env/bin/activate.fish
. env/bin/activate
Python Pyramid Shell
==========================
If you want to use an interactive Python interpreter to interact with Make Post Sell app/models & DB:
.. code-block:: bash
pshell development.ini
For example, we needed to migrate production data using this script:
.. code-block:: python
# begin the database transaction.
request.tm.begin()
suses = models.stripe_user_shop.get_all_stripe_user_shop_objects(request.dbsession)
for sus in suses:
try:
sus.active_card_id = sus.stripe_customer_default_source.id
request.dbsession.add(sus)
except AttributeError:
pass
# flush / commit all changes stored the the sqlachemy session.
request.dbsession.flush()
# commit/close the database transaction to really make changes.
request.tm.commit()
Contributing
===================
* Establish communication with Russell or another admin to bless your git.unturf.com gitlab account & put you into the proper roles.
* Russell should see your account request but due to spam you have to ask him directly for approval via email or some other means of comms.
* Clone repo & make commits
* Create merge requests, we automatically run the unit & headless functional tests on each commit
* On merge we release to the production site & see the change across users.
Optionally, format your code.
This is not set in stone, but if you want to use a formatter this is the path for now!
**Python**
black (manual)
**Jinja2**
None (not needed, neither is an HTML formatter)
**JavaScript**
Prettier or biome (manual)
**CSS**
