Usage

Permissions

Access to resources in Skyportal is controlled in two ways:

  • ACLs control which actions a user is allowed to perform: create a new user, upload spectra, post comments, etc.
  • Groups are sets of sources that are accessible to members of that group
    • Members can also be made an admin of the group, which gives them group-specific permissions to add new users, etc.
    • The same source source can belong to multiple groups

Roles are collections of ACLs, and are a convenient way of giving users the same subset of permissions.

Adding roles to users

  • User permissions can be managed on the /users/ page (click through from profile)

Adding users to groups

  • Groups membership can be managed on the /groups/ page (click through from profile)

Important Makefile targets

Run make to get a list of Makefile targets. Here are some commonly used ones:

General:

  • help : Describe make targets

DB preparation:

  • db_init : Create database
  • db_clear : Drop and re-create DB

Launching:

  • run : Launch the web application
  • log : Tail all log files

Testing:

  • test : Launch web app & execute frontend tests
  • test_headless : (Linux only) The above, but without a visible browser

Development:

  • lint-githook : Install a Git pre-commit hook that lints staged chunks (this is done automatically when you lint for the first time).

Code formatting / linters

To set up pre-commit for automatically reformatting Python and JavaScript changes, run pip install pre-commit && pre-commit install.

pre-commit is run each time a new change is committed. If an error can be fixed automatically (such as a spacing issue), the tool does that automatically, and you can re-attempt the commit. Otherwise, you may have to make the change manually.
