Diagram

A diagram showing all of the following:

• project inputs
• projects end users
• project outputs
• project data stores

(see mermaid documentation on how to create these diagrams)

For example:

graph LR
    subgraph project_components[Hypothetical Service]

        project_api[Hypothetical Service API]
        project_frontend[Hypothetical Service Frontend]
        subgraph datastores[Data Stores]
        postgres[PostgreSQL]
            queue[SQS queue service]
        end
    end

    subgraph inputs[Inputs]
        event_platform_input[Event Platform]
            cloud_canvas[Cloud Canvas API]
            identity[Identity Server]
    end


    subgraph end_users[End Users]
        student[Student]
            administrator[Administrator]
    end

    subgraph outputs[Outputs]
        event_platform_out[Event Platform]
    end

    event_platform_input -->|Canvas Change Events| project_api
    cloud_canvas -->|Canvas User API get| project_api
    identity -->|Authentication of users| project_frontend

    project_frontend -->|Views a thing| student

4. Create virtual environment for project mkvirtualenv project_name -p /opt/homebrew/opt/python@3.10/bin/python3
5. Install project requirements pip install -r requirements.txt

Known Issues and Fixes

If your system python does not include pip, you will need to make sure pip is installed :

python -m ensurepip # if your system python is at least 3.4

If your system python isn't at least 3.4, you will need to use your system package manager to install pip.
