Please see the project page for more information on the Arches project.
The Arches Installation Guide and Arches User Guide are available here.
Important
: Installing the arches-for-science app will install Arches as a dependency. This may replace your current install of Arches with a version from PyPi. If you've installed Arches for development using the --editable
flag, you'll need to reinstall Arches after installing arches-for-science
Clone the arches-for-science repo and checkout the latest dev/x.x.x
branch.
Navigate to the arches-for-science
directory from your terminal and run:
pip install -e .
pip install arches-for-science
If you don't already have an Arches project, you'll need to create one by following the instructions in the Arches documentation.
Since Arches for Science uses Cantaloupe
as its IIIF server, take notice of the
Cantaloupe installation instructions, too.
When your project is ready add "arches_templating", "arches_for_science", and "pgtrigger" to INSTALLED_APPS and "arches_for_science" to ARCHES_APPLICATIONS in your project's settings.py file:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
"arches_templating",
"arches_for_science",
"pgtrigger",
"myappname",
)
ARCHES_APPLICATIONS = ('arches_for_science',)
Also add the following lines to settings.py. (Note: arches-project create
before Arches 6.2.6 or 7.5.0 did not create RENDERERS
, so you may need to
add it first
before extending it as shown below):
FUNCTION_LOCATIONS.append("arches_for_science.pkg.extensions.functions")
TEMPLATES[0]["OPTIONS"]["context_processors"].append("arches_for_science.utils.context_processors.project_settings")
RENDERERS += [
{
"name": "xy-reader",
"title": "XY Data File Reader",
"description": "Use for all instrument outputs with x-y data",
"id": "e93b7b27-40d8-4141-996e-e59ff08742f3",
"iconclass": "fa fa-bolt",
"component": "views/components/cards/file-renderers/xy-reader",
"ext": "txt",
"type": "text/plain",
"exclude": "",
},
]
XY_TEXT_FILE_FORMATS = ["txt"]
X_FRAME_OPTIONS = "SAMEORIGIN"
Next ensure arches and arches_for_science are included as dependencies in package.json
"dependencies": {
"arches": "archesproject/arches#dev/7.6.x",
"arches_for_science": "archesproject/arches-for-science#dev/1.1.x"
}
Update urls.py to include the arches-for-science urls
urlpatterns = [
path("", include("arches.urls")),
path("", include("arches_for_science.urls")),
path("reports/", include("arches_templating.urls")),
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
Install the arches application package (models and other data)
python manage.py packages -o load_package -a arches_for_science -dev -y
Start your project
python manage.py runserver
Next cd into your project's app directory (the one with package.json e.g. $PROJECT_NAME/$PROJECT_NAME/
) install and build front-end dependencies:
yarn install
yarn build_development
