# How to run Capsul locally
## <a name="manually"></a>Manually
Ensure you have the pre-requisites for the psycopg2 Postgres database adapter package:
```sh
sudo apt install python3-dev libpq-dev
pg_config --version
```
Ensure you have the wonderful `pipenv` python package management and virtual environment cli:
```sh
sudo apt install pipenv
```
Create python virtual environment and install packages:
```sh
pipenv install
```
Run an instance of Postgres (I used docker for this, you can use whatever you want, point is its listening on `localhost:5432`):
```sh
docker run --rm -it -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=dev -p 5432:5432 postgres
```
Run the app
```sh
pipenv run flask run
```
or, using Gunicorn:
```sh
pipenv run gunicorn --bind 127.0.0.1:5000 -k gevent --worker-connections 1000 app:app
```
Note that by default when running locally, the `SPOKE_MODEL` is set to `mock`, meaning that it won't actually try to spawn vms.
## Crediting your account
Once you log in for the first time, you will want to give yourself some free capsulbux so you can create fake capsuls for testing.
```sh
pipenv run flask cli sql -c "INSERT INTO payments (email, dollars) VALUES ('<your email address here>', 20.00)"
```
## Running scheduled tasks:
```sh
pipenv run flask cli cron-task
```
## <a name="docker_compose"></a>Run locally with docker-compose
If you have Docker and Docker-Compose installed, you can use the
`3wordchant/capsul-flask` Docker image to launch capsul-flask, and a Postgres
database server, for you:
```sh
docker-compose up
```
`capsul-flask` will read settings from your `.env` file as usual; you can set any of the options mentioned in the [configuration documentation](./configuration.md).
