Family Promise of Spokane

Welcome to the Data Science Team B's repository for the Family Promise of Spokane Project! This repository holds all the source code for our API as well as the predictive model used by the app. At this time, there have been three iterations of this project with three different teams, each building upon the last.

Description

The Family Promise of Spokane is a US-based nonprofit organization based in Spokane, WA. They are an organization that aims to curb homelessness for families through both corrective and preventive measures. Their services include providing shelter for families as well as rental assitance. For more details of the organizations and the amazing work they do, be sure to check out their website.

User Flow

The aim of the project is to eventually have a central app for all user types of Family Promise.

Getting Started

Libraries

fastapi uvicorn

sqlalchemy python-dotenv

pandas scikit-learn plotly

Setup Instructions

In your CLI, clone the repository to your local machine using:

git clone <repository link>

In order for the app to function correctly, the user must set up valid environment variables. There should be a .env file in the root project directory containing the following:

SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URL = Postgres database credentials

To run the FastAPI app from your CLI, use:

uvicorn app.main:app --reload

You should be able to see the app running in your localhost after application startup is complete.

Tech Stack

Deployed API built with:

  • Python
  • FastAPI
  • Docker
  • AWS Elastic Beanstalk
  • PostgreSQL

Reasons for tech stack choices:

  • Gain insight into AWS deployments and debugging with Docker
  • Speed of FastAPI and its increase in popularity
  • Solid structure with SQL queries

Issues

If you are having an issue with the existing project code, please submit a bug report under the following guidelines:

  • Check first to see if your issue has already been reported.
  • Check to see if the issue has recently been fixed by attempting to reproduce the issue using the latest master branch in the repository.
  • Create a live example of the problem.
  • Submit a detailed bug report including your environment & browser, steps to reproduce the issue, actual and expected outcomes, where you believe the issue is originating from, and any potential solutions you have considered.

Pull Request Guidelines

  • Ensure any install or build dependencies are removed before the end of the layer when doing a build.
  • Update the README.md with details of changes to the interface, including new plist variables, exposed ports, useful file locations and container parameters.
  • Ensure that your code conforms to our existing code conventions and test coverage.
  • Include the relevant issue number, if applicable.
  • You may merge the Pull Request in once you have the sign-off of two other developers, or if you do not have permission to do that, you may request the second reviewer to merge it for you.
