Advanced tools
The backend server for the Rogue Scholar science blog archive. The Rogue Scholar API is a Python Quart application that provides a RESTful API for the Rogue Scholar service.
Requires Python 3.8 or higher (Python 3.11 recommended). Uses Poetry for dependency management. Depends on credentials for the Rogue Scholar Postgres database (hosted by Supabase) and Rogue Scholar search index (hosted by Typesense):
# required environment variables
SUPABASE_URL
SUPABASE_ANON_KEY
TYPESENSE_HOST
TYPESENSE_API_KEY
The API uses Poetry for dependency management. To install Poetry, see the Poetry documentation. Then install the dependencies and run the server:
poetry install
poetry run quart --app rogue_scholar_api run
The API will then be available at http://localhost:5000
.
We use pytest for testing:
poetry run pytest
