Recommender Systems

The application is live at http://recommendersystems.appspot.com/.

Setup

1. Get a copy of Recommender-Systems repo

Go ahead and clone this repo your to machine

git clone https://github.com/pinarkaymaz6/Recommender-Systems.git

2. Run locally

Running locally is not a mandatory step, but I highly recommend it. It's easier to save and view your changes, since deployment to cloud takes a few minutes.

• Create a virtual environment and install dependencies

  cd Recommender-Systems/recommender
  python3 -m venv FILENAME
  source FILENAME/bin/activate
  pip install -r requirements.txt

• Start the app

  python3 main.py

• Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080/ to view your application.

3. Deploy to Google App Engine

First you should create a project on Google Cloud dashboard if you don't have one. You can follow the instructions here to create a project.

• Install Google Cloud SDK. Here is the guide for macOS. Make sure you initialize the setups by running gcloud init.

• Deploy application with your project ID

  gcloud app deploy app.yaml --project PROJECTID

• Your application should be ready shortly on PROJECTID.appspot.com.
