title: Full development environment
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Backend
|
|
|
|
To create a local development setup for authentik, you need the following:
|
|
|
|
- Python 3.9
|
|
- pipenv, which is used to manage dependencies, and can be installed with `pip install pipenv`
|
|
- Go 1.16
|
|
- PostgreSQL (any recent version will do)
|
|
- Redis (any recent version will do)
|
|
|
|
For PostgreSQL and Redis, you can use the docker-compose file in `scripts/`. You can also use a native install, if you prefer.
|
|
|
|
To configure authentik to use the local databases, create a file in the authentik directory called `local.env.yml`, with the following contents
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
debug: true
|
|
postgresql:
|
|
user: postgres
|
|
|
|
log_level: debug
|
|
secret_key: "A long key you can generate with `pwgen 40 1` for example"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, you can start authentik by running `make run`.
|
|
|
|
Generally speaking, authentik is a Django application, ran by gunicorn, proxied by a Go application. The Go application serves static files.
|
|
|
|
Most functions and classes have type-hints and docstrings, so it is recommended to install a Python Type-checking Extension in your IDE to navigate around the code.
|
|
|
|
Before committing code, run `make lint` to ensure your code is formatted well. This also requires `pyright@1.1.136`, which can be installed with npm.
|
|
|
|
Run `make gen` to generate an updated OpenAPI document for any changes you made.
|
|
|
|
## Frontend
|
|
|
|
By default, no transpiled bundle of the frontend is included. To build the UI, you need Node 12 or newer.
|
|
|
|
The Frontend also uses a generated API client to talk with the backend. To generate this client, [openapitools/openapi-generator-cli](https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator) is used.
|
|
|
|
If you want to generate the client without installing anything, run this command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
make gen-web
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To build the UI, run these commands:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd web/
|
|
npm i
|
|
npm run build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to make changes to the UI, run `npm run watch` instead.
|
|
|
|
To ensure the code is formatted well, run `npx eslint . --fix` and `npm run lit-analyse`.
