Add guide on how to start a development environment about qiita HOT 9 CLOSED

What is the extent of the documentation what we should implement? Perhaps:

• Install and start redis
• Install and start postgres
• run setup.py
• Set up your qiita config file (see examples at qiita/qiita_core/support_files/config_demo.txt) and use environment variable QIITA_CONFIG_FP
• Then run the following commands:

ipython profile create qiita_general --parallel
ipython profile create qiita_demo --parallel
ipython profile create qiita_reserved --parallel
qiita_env start_cluster --cluster general
qiita_env start_cluster --cluster demo
qiita_env start_cluster --cluster reserved
qiita_env make_env --env test

Is this taken care of by #902?

from qiita.

Yeah I think so.

#902 doesn't create a development environment, it creates a release environment.

@ElDeveloper could you explain what's needed?

from qiita.

How to setup an environment from a git repository, creating an admin user (I believe this has to be done via the psql console), running the unit tests and I think that would be all.

While we're discussing this, I had one question.

Shouldn't the user be running python setup.py build && python setup.py install in order to install qiita? If so, the install docs will need to
be updated.

On a side note, I have a Docker image for qiita that is fairly close to
being complete. This will also help automate this process.

I don't think so, using pip resolves dependencies and is the simplest
way to install a python package (I think).

YES, that would also work, though I think docker images make more sense
for live/production environments, we have a specific issue about this,
see: #1064
