In order to run the mmeds server locally you will need.

• Some mysql server running on your machine. For development we are using mariadb. To install on linux install the mariadb and mariadb-server packages using your distro's manager. For other OS's the installer can be found here

• A mongoDB server running on your machine. Installers can be found here

To setup the SQL database connect to you sql database as root:
mysql -u root
Then run the following command.
source setup.sql;

mmeds is written in in Python3 so you will need a python3 environment to run it. Run python setup.py install to install the necessary dependencies.

To start the server change to the host directory and run python host.py 1

To connect to the server go to MMEDS Allow access to the webpage despite your browsers warning. The security certificate is not signed.

NOTE: Certain versions of openssl as installed by conda cause issues with cherrypy ssl. To fix this run conda install openssl=1.0.2p. This version should work.

The directory that uploads are saved in are determined by the value of the MMEDS environment variable. If this variable is not set it defaults to the current user's home directory.
