||||
|
||||
```bash

||||
git clone https://github.com/AJaySi/ALwrity.git
|
||||
cd ALwrity
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 2: Backend Setup**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Navigate to backend
|
||||
cd backend
|
||||
|
||||
# Create virtual environment
|
||||
python -m venv .venv
|
||||
|
||||
# Activate virtual environment
|
||||
# Windows:
|
||||
.venv\Scripts\activate
|
||||
# macOS/Linux:
|
||||
source .venv/bin/activate
|
||||
|
||||
# Install dependencies
|
||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
|
||||
# Create .env file
|
||||
cp env_template.txt .env
|
||||
|
||||
# Edit .env and add your API keys:
|
||||
# - CLERK_SECRET_KEY
|
||||
# - CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY
|
||||
# - GEMINI_API_KEY (optional, can be provided in UI)
|
||||
|
||||
# Initialize database

|
||||
|
||||
# Return to root
|
||||
cd ..
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 3: Frontend Setup**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Navigate to frontend
|
||||
cd frontend
|
||||
|
||||
# Clean install (important!)
|
||||
rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json # macOS/Linux
|
||||
# OR for Windows PowerShell:
|
||||
# Remove-Item -Recurse -Force node_modules, package-lock.json -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
|
||||
|
||||
# Install dependencies (THIS IS CRITICAL - DO NOT SKIP!)
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
|
||||
# Create .env file
|
||||
cp env_template.txt .env
|
||||
|
||||
# Edit .env and add:
|
||||
# REACT_APP_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=<your-clerk-publishable-key>
|
||||
# REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000
|
||||
|
||||
# Build the project (validates everything compiles)
|
||||
npm run build
|
||||
|
||||
# Return to root
|
||||
cd ..
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 4: Start the Application**
|
||||
|
||||
**Terminal 1 - Backend:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd backend
|
||||
python app.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Terminal 2 - Frontend:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd frontend
|
||||
npm start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Step 5: Access the Application**
|
||||
|
||||
- **Frontend UI**: http://localhost:3000
|
||||
- **Backend API Docs**: http://localhost:8000/api/docs
|
||||
- **Health Check**: http://localhost:8000/health
|
||||
|
||||
## 🐛 **Troubleshooting Common Issues**
|
||||
|
||||
### **Issue 1: "CopilotSidebar is not exported" Error**
|
||||
|
||||
**Cause**: Did not run `npm install` in frontend directory
|
||||
|
||||
**Fix:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd frontend
|
||||
rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
npm run build
|
||||
npm start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Issue 2: "Module not found" (Python)**
|
||||
|
||||
**Cause**: Did not install Python dependencies or activate virtual environment
|
||||
|
||||
**Fix:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd backend
|
||||
source .venv/bin/activate # or .venv\Scripts\activate on Windows
|
||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Issue 3: "CORS Error" in Browser**
|
||||
|
||||
**Cause**: Backend not running or frontend connecting to wrong URL
|
||||
|
||||
**Fix:**
|
||||
1. Ensure backend is running on `http://localhost:8000`
|
||||
2. Check `frontend/.env` has `REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000`
|
||||
3. Restart both frontend and backend
|
||||
|
||||
### **Issue 4: "Clerk Publishable Key Missing"**
|
||||
|
||||
**Cause**: Frontend `.env` file not configured
|
||||
|
||||
**Fix:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd frontend
|
||||
# Edit .env file and add:
|
||||
# REACT_APP_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=pk_test_xxx...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Issue 5: "Database Error" or "Subscription Plans Not Found"**
|
||||
|
||||
**Cause**: Database tables not created
|
||||
|
||||
**Fix:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd backend
|
||||
python scripts/create_subscription_tables.py
|
||||
python scripts/cleanup_alpha_plans.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Issue 6: "Port Already in Use"**
|
||||
|
||||
**Backend (8000):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Find and kill process using port 8000
|
||||
# Windows:
|
||||
netstat -ano | findstr :8000
|
||||
taskkill /PID <process_id> /F
|
||||
|
||||
# macOS/Linux:
|
||||
lsof -ti:8000 | xargs kill -9
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Frontend (3000):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Find and kill process using port 3000
|
||||
# Windows:
|
||||
netstat -ano | findstr :3000
|
||||
taskkill /PID <process_id> /F
|
||||
|
||||
# macOS/Linux:
|
||||
lsof -ti:3000 | xargs kill -9
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

||||

||||
