## Prerequisites for testing and documentation
The Nominatim test suite consists of behavioural tests (using behave) and
-unit tests (using PHPUnit for PHP code and pytest for Python code).
-It has the following additional requirements:
+unit tests (using pytest). It has the following additional requirements:
* [behave test framework](https://behave.readthedocs.io) >= 1.2.6
-* [phpunit](https://phpunit.de) (9.5 is known to work)
-* [PHP CodeSniffer](https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer)
-* [Pylint](https://pylint.org/) (CI always runs the latest version from pip)
+* [flake8](https://flake8.pycqa.org/en/stable/) (CI always runs the latest version from pip)
* [mypy](http://mypy-lang.org/) (plus typing information for external libs)
* [Python Typing Extensions](https://github.com/python/typing_extensions) (for Python < 3.9)
* [pytest](https://pytest.org)
* [mkdocs](https://www.mkdocs.org/) >= 1.1.2
* [mkdocstrings](https://mkdocstrings.github.io/) >= 0.25
* [mkdocs-material](https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/)
+* [mkdocs-gen-files](https://oprypin.github.io/mkdocs-gen-files/)
+
+Please be aware that tests always run against the globally installed
+osm2pgsql, so you need to have this set up. If you want to test against
+the vendored version of osm2pgsql, you need to set the PATH accordingly.
### Installing prerequisites on Ubuntu/Debian
The Python tools should always be run with the most recent version.
-In particular, pylint tends to have a lot of breaking changes between versions.
The easiest way, to handle these Python dependencies is to run your
development from within a virtual environment.
+```sh
+sudo apt install libsqlite3-mod-spatialite
+```
+
To set up the virtual environment with all necessary packages run:
```sh
virtualenv ~/nominatim-dev-venv
~/nominatim-dev-venv/bin/pip install\
- psycopg2-binary psutil psycopg[binary] PyICU SQLAlchemy \
- python-dotenv jinja2 pyYAML datree \
- behave mkdocs mkdocstrings pytest pytest-asyncio pylint \
+ psutil psycopg[binary] PyICU SQLAlchemy \
+ python-dotenv jinja2 pyYAML datrie behave \
+ mkdocs mkdocstrings mkdocs-gen-files pytest pytest-asyncio flake8 \
types-jinja2 types-markupsafe types-psutil types-psycopg2 \
types-pygments types-pyyaml types-requests types-ujson \
- types-urllib3 typing-extensions unicorn falcon
+ types-urllib3 typing-extensions unicorn falcon starlette \
+ uvicorn mypy osmium aiosqlite
```
Now enter the virtual environment whenever you want to develop:
. ~/nominatim-dev-venv/bin/activate
```
-For installing the PHP development tools, run:
-
-```sh
-sudo apt install php-cgi phpunit php-codesniffer
-```
-
-If your distribution does not have PHPUnit 7.3+, you can install it (as well
-as CodeSniffer) via composer:
-
-```
-sudo apt-get install composer
-composer global require "squizlabs/php_codesniffer=*"
-composer global require "phpunit/phpunit=8.*"
-```
-
-The binaries are found in `.config/composer/vendor/bin`. You need to add this
-to your PATH:
-
-```
-echo 'export PATH=~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH' > ~/.profile
-```
-
### Running Nominatim during development
The source code for Nominatim can be found in the `src` directory and can
framework. The master branch is automatically deployed every night on
[https://nominatim.org/release-docs/develop/](https://nominatim.org/release-docs/develop/)
-To build the documentation, go to the build directory and run
+To build the documentation run
```
make doc
-INFO - Cleaning site directory
-INFO - Building documentation to directory: /home/vagrant/build/site-html
```
-This runs `mkdocs build` plus extra transformation of some files and adds
-symlinks (see `CMakeLists.txt` for the exact steps).
-Now you can start webserver for local testing
+For local testing, you can start webserver:
```
build> make serve-doc
to your host:
```
-build> PYTHONPATH=$SRCDIR mkdocs serve --dev-addr 0.0.0.0:8088
+build> mkdocs serve --dev-addr 0.0.0.0:8088
[server:296] Serving on http://0.0.0.0:8088
[handlers:62] Start watching changes
