Data

The Dataset is from Kaggle. It represents car accidents in the UK over a time-frame of about 10 years.

Deployment

The current deployed version can be visited under: http://sdc-project.azurewebsites.net. It gets automatically built and pushed on every new commit.

Below is a schematic of our pipline for deployment:

And here a little overview of the infrastructure used in deployment:

Project Structure

The structure of this repo is the following:

Folder	Details
/backend	contains all the files for our backend
/frontend	contains all our frontend files
/dash_app	contains the dash app, which is integrated into our frontend
/data	empty folder for local usage, see /data/README.md
/etc	contains additional content for the project (for example pics)
/notebooks	contains all the notebooks used for data analysis etc.

Build

First you'll need to install node.js. Then you can build the frontend. Inside the /frontend/sdc-frontend/ folder run:

npm install

and (for local testing, for production substitute local for prod)

npm run build:local

Sidenote: Since env-cmd is used this command will not work on standard Windows cmd or Powershell. Execute the following commands prior to solve this:

npm update

npm install dotenv --save

To build all docker containers run (after substituting user and token) in the root project folder:

docker compose build --build-arg kaggle_user=user --build-arg kaggle_token=token

Run

After building you can start the project simply via:

docker compose up

And point your browser to localhost
