Deployment

1. Navigate to /opt/arc/shimmer_new/

   • DO NOT use docker compose watch, it can cause issues with the database and frontend.
4. Backend is ready to recieve images.
   • The frontend is at localhost:80 and the database (backup way to view images) is at localhost:9090 with credentials admin, arcshimmer
   • If you want to test that everything is running correctly, in another pane navigate to /opt/arc/shimmer_new/backend/ and run $ python3 test_post.py
     • This will post 5 images to the backend, with one having metadata.
   • If for whatever reason the database is having problems, images are stored in the /opt/arc/shimmer_new/backend/backup_images/ folder, with the same organization as in the database
