This django web application is developed for uploading data in ".csv" format to a postgresql database and serving (rendering) the data from the DB in an html.

To enable this app function properly, install the dependencies in the pipenv. Simply run:

pipenv shell
pipenv install

Once all the dependencies have been installed, proceed as follows:

• Create a postgres DB
• Run upload_data app
• Launch DataTask server

The details of the steps are provided as follows:

• First install postgresql 12.2 (incase it's not installed already).

  One way of doing this is to download the postgresql app from https://postgresapp.com/downloads.html or use homebrew by running:

  brew install postgresql

  After installing postgresql, start all postgresql services from terminal by either running (postgres must be running at all times):

  pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres start or brew services start postgresql

• Second, create a new postgres database named task using:

  CREATEDB task;

  Afterward, launch the task db shell by running:

  psql task

  create username and password for the database using:

  CREATE USER admin1 with encrypted password 'admin1';

  grant all privileges of the db to USER admin1 using:

  GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE task TO admin1;

  grant the USER the role to create new db using:

  ALTER USER admin1 CREATEDB;

By completing the first step, we have created a db task. The next step is uploading csv data to postgres db. The app for achieving this is upload_data.

In order to upload the data, we need to create a db table which will be accessed by our django project model, we need to:

• Create db table

  create db table Taskdata in the db task by running the following:

  python upload_data/create_db_table.py

• Upload csv data to db table

  start the web server using:

  python manage.py runserver

  open another terminal and goto project directory

  cd data-extraction-service

  to upload the task.csv data into table Taskdata, run:

  python upload_data/stack_data.py

  we can now turn off the web application server (Ctrl + C)

The main app in data-extraction-service is showdata. It contains the data model, views, and url routes

• Again launch the server using:

  python manage.py runserver

• to view the uploaded data in html, go to:

  http://127.0.0.1:8000/index.html/

• to access the admin page, go to:

  http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/

The admin page login details is:

username: admin
password: user1234
