Quick start

Consists of a flask python app and a postresql database. They exist in two different docker containers. Flask app refers to the DB via local network.

For a quick start run these:

docker compose up db

// here wait till you see "database system is ready to accept connections" for the second time. This means db is set up. (It says it one time, then runs init scripts, then restarts and tells it for the second time)
// then stop the container, press (Ctrl + C) one time

docker compose up -d
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

// Now we run population script. This will download the corpus and put it to the database. `full` mode puts all ~1800 translations (takes >1h). `debug` mode puts just 10 translations (takes <1min)

python3 populate_db.py -m full
