RISOTTO's backend server

This repository hosts the code that runs RISOTTO's backend server. RISOTTO stands for Research Intelligent Support and Organization TOol against COVID-19 and aims to support COVID-19 research. More information is available at RISOTTO's homepage: https://inria-chile.github.io/risotto/.

How to run locally

In order to launch the local development environment, we suggest to use the integration repository.

How to test

The unit test suite is executed by the following command:

$ docker-compose run --rm risotto-backend pytest

Backend architecture

The backend is built on Python using the following libraries:

• Flask: https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/1.1.x/
• Flask-SQLAlchemy: https://flask-sqlalchemy.palletsprojects.com/en/2.x/
• Flask-Migrate: https://flask-migrate.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Even though currently the database and migrations libraries aren't being used, they are ready to be integrated uncommenting a few lines in risotto/__init__.py.
