Working on Interactive Classifier

The code for Interactive Classifier is contained in rodan-main/code/rodan/jobs/interactive_classifier.

To set up Interactive Classifier, you will need to be running Node v7 and have Python 2.7 installed.

To use Node v7:

1. Install nvm if not yet installed
2. Run nvm install 7 or nvm use 7 if already installed

To use Python 2.7:

1. Install pyenv if not yet installed
2. Run pyenv install 2.7
3. Run pyenv shell 2.7

Making Changes

Whenever you make changes to Interactive Classifier source code, the static files need to be recompiled.

1. cd rodan-main/code/rodan/jobs/interactive_classifier/ic_frontend
2. npm install --python=python2.7
3. gulp

Merging Changes

Running gulp will generate documentation in docs/ and output compiled .js, .js.map, and .css files in static/.

Make sure to rebase before merging changes so that changes are merged in the static files. When rebasing, resolve all merge conflicts in the source code, then run gulp to regenerate the static files.

There should be a better way to do this (see issue #913).
