+# CircuMat
+---
+CircuMat is a modified (forked) version of Rama-Scene EIT Raw Materials project related to analyzing Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) tables. CircuMat focuses on NUTS2 level classification as opposed to Rama-Scene country level analysis tool.

+[![Contributions welcome](https://img.shields.io/badge/contributions-welcome-brightgreen.svg)](resources/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md)
+
+# Developers Guide
+---
+For more information on the tool architecture, please refer to Rama-Scene's documenation: http://rama-scene.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
+
+# Getting started
+---
+### Retrieve the raw datasets
+
+
+* EXIOBASE-Rama-Scene (v4 - modified version including secondary materials + CircuMat Eurostat data): 
+
+https://surfdrive.surf.nl/files/index.php/s/bEVnoyJUeYMUiyr
+
+pass: circumat
+
+Download the circumat_v4_clean.zip folder.
+
+### Clone the project 
+``` 
+$ git clone https://[email protected]/CML-IE/circumat.git
+```
+
+### Create a virtual environment (python3.5 or higher) and install the app requirements (make sure you have python-dev installed via apt-get)
+``` 
+$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt 
+```
+
+### Install node.js (node version: 3.10.10 or higher)
+``` 
+$ sudo apt-get update
+$ sudo apt-get install nodejs
+```
+> Note: On debian apt install nodejs-legacy
+
+### Install redis (for Django Channels)
+```
+$ sudo apt install redis-server
+```
+
+### Install rabbitMQ (for Celery)
+
+``$ sudo apt-get install -y erlang``
+
+``$ sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server``
+
+Then enable and start the RabbitMQ service:
+
+``$ sudo systemctl enable rabbitmq-server``
+
+``$ sudo systemctl start rabbitmq-server``
+
+Check the status to make sure everything is running:
+``$ sudo systemctl status rabbitmq-server``
+
+
+> Note: Perform all next steps in the virtualenv and in the rootfolder of the project
+
+### Set the following environment variables (see sample-dev-env.sh):
+```
+export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=circumatMasterProject.config.dev
+export DATASETS_VERSION=[version downloaded e.g. v3]
+export DATASETS_DIR=my/path/to/datasets (make sure that inside this folder is a folder containing the year 2011)
+export OPENBLAS_NUM_THREADS=<adjust according to how many cores you want to use>
+```
+If you are on Linux and using the OpenBlas library for Numpy. 
+It is advised to set the number of threads Numpy uses. To find which library is used in python:
+```
+>>>import numpy as np
+>>>np.__config__.show()
+```
+
+
+### Prepare the database
+```
+$ python3 manage.py makemigrations
+$ python3 manage.py migrate
+```
+
+### Populate the database 
+```
+$ python3 manage.py populateHierarchies
+```
+
+### Prepare static resources (npm version 4.6.1 or higher)
+```
+$ npm install
+```
+
+### Built React bundle
+```
+$ ./node_modules/.bin/webpack --config dev-webpack.config.js 
+```
+
+### Start Celery
+Start the celery module to enable handling of calculations:
+```
+$ celery -A circumatMasterProject worker -l info  --concurrency 1 
+```
+
+### Start the development server
+```
+$ python3 manage.py runserver
+```
+
+Access the app via the webbrowser: http://127.0.0.1:8000/circumat/
+
+
+### Core dependencies
+---
+#### TO BE UPDATED
+The app uses Celery [4.1.0] (http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/django/first-steps-with-django.html), Django channels [2.1.5] (https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)
