How to run locally for testing

Start a local Dash server on localhost:8050 by submitting

python app.py

The app can be accessed in the browser at http://localhost:8050/viscosity-calculator/.

Install Docker

Go to https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/ and install the Docker desktop.

Preparation for deployment

Before deployment to the server, make sure that the application is runnable in a Docker container. In order to check that, perform the following steps on your machine.

1. Build Docker container

   docker build -t viscosity-calculator .
   

2. Run the container

   docker run -p 8050:8050 viscosity-calculator
   

3. Open a browser and load the following address. This should start the app.

   http://localhost:8050/viscosity-calculator/
   

4. Stop the container. First look up the ID of the running container:

   >> docker ps
   CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                  COMMAND             CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                    NAMES
   bd8bb0decd02        viscosity-calculator   "python3 app.py"    11 minutes ago      Up 11 minutes       0.0.0.0:8050->8050/tcp   gallant_poitras
   

   The container ID and name will be different in your case.

   Then stop the container:

   docker stop bd8bb0decd02
