StarWarsMap

This is the repo where we build a map of the Star Wars Galaxy using graphs

In the first steps of the project we are foccusing on designing a graph structure that connects all available planets in the galaxy. Taking into account known hyperspace routes, grids and sectors.

We are using this map for reference.

After we complete the graph generation process we can store this data on neo4j with the same structure.

There is also a web app. Where also you will be able to plot a route between two planets and traverse the galaxy far far away.

Avilable data used for this map

The information for this map is contained on this json files:

• map_api/data/grid_db.json
• map_api/data/hyperlanes_db.json
• map_api/data/regions_db.json

You can also find a csv file taken from This Dataset which belongs to the author of the map mentioned above. To generate the json files you can also use the script provided in /app/migrations/json_from_csv.py

To Run the current version of the map

You need to install Python 3.7.X

Install virtualenv if you prefer: pip install virtualenv

Create a new virtualenv with virtualenv venv

Activate the virtualenv with /venv/Scripts/activate in Windows or source /venv/bin/activate on unix based systems

Install the requierements with pip install -r requirements.txt

Inside the map_api folder run the plot with python manage.py plotgraph

A figure will be displayed showing the current state of the map.

To Run the map api

Follow the same steps as before and use the command python manage.py run

Run the web app

This project uses yarn and nodejs.

In the project folder run yarn install to install the required packages, and yarn start to run the app in developement mode.
