🐋 with Docker

First install Docker and Docker-compose and set it up.

Clone the repository navigate to

./RTRE/Server

🔥 Firestore Configuration

Create a Firestore Database and acquire the service acount key by generating it

- Go to console
- Add project
- Build
- Firestore Database (follow instructions)
- Press the gear ⚙️ icon next To Project Overview
- Project Settings -> Service accounts
- Generate new private key and save that in ./Server 

navigate to ./RTRE and type the following;

🔔 Make sure in server/fore/rtre/server/Main.java BimPort is set to docker.internal.host:port

public class Main {
	 public static String BimPort = "http://host.docker.internal:8082";
	// public static String BimPort = "http://localhost:8082";

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		SpringApplication.run(Main.class, args);
	}
}

## build server, frontend and Bimserver images
> docker-compose up

After the process is done, should be when the springboot backend has started these are the following adresses at default:

• Springboot - http://localhost:3030
• Bimserver - http://localhost:8082
• Client - http://localhost:8080
  • Default Admin username = admin@admin.com
  • Defauilt Admin password = password

🤖 Dev-Setup

🔒 Requirements

• Python 3.9
• JDK 8
• IfcOpenshell
• Bimserver
• Maven
• Node.js , npm
• Firestore

First installing the merge functionality, navigate to IfcOpenshell repository and install the blendebim-py3.9 version

Copy the files from ./blenderbim/libs/site/packages/ and copy the

ifcpatch and ifcopenshell 

folders to python3.9 site-packages/dist-packages You can locate the site using the command:

python -m site

You will also need to connect to a firebase Database, follow instructions in the section firestore Configuration

Next, either install Bimserver from its repository version 1.5.182 Or the easier way trough a docker with image from dockerhub

## pull image
docker pull disitlab/bimserver:1.5.182
## run bimserver on port 8082
docker run -p 8082:8080 disitlab/bimserver:1.5.182

Clone repository and navigate to ./RTRE/frontend/rtre-webbapplication/ and run commands

## install modules
npm install
## run frontend Client
npm run serve

Next, navigate to ./RTRE/Server/ and run

🔔 Make sure in server/fore/rtre/server/Main.java BimPort is set to localhost:port

public class Main {
	// public static String BimPort = "http://host.docker.internal:8082";
	public static String BimPort = "http://localhost:8082";

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		SpringApplication.run(Main.class, args);
	}
