Teaching Time Tool

Tool for managing staff teaching time.

<<<<<<< before updating

Installation

Clone the repo to the server:

cd /var/www/
git clone https://github.com/Southampton-RSG/physics-workload

Also copy the cut-down spreadsheets derived from the workload 2425.xlsx spreadsheet into the same directory as the code. They aren't included in the repo as they contain personally identifiable data.

Running

The tool is run using docker compose. Generally, it's best to do this in a screen session. Start the server (and associated containers) using:

screen
sudo docker compose up

Initialising

If this is the first time the tool is being run, import the .csv data:

sudo docker exec -it physics-workload-django /bin/bash 
make clean
make data
make superuser

Then, log into the website to link your user account to the site. The command make superuser will then make the swm1r18 account site staff; edit the script make_swm1r18_superuser.py to change the account.

Updating

To update the tool, take the containers down, rebuild, and restart using:

screen -r
sudo docker compose down 
sudo docker compose build --no-cache
sudo docker compose up
