GN4 Guile Webservice
This directory provides a Guile web service incl. the new REST API. It is used in conjunction with the Python web services and (very much) WIP.
Run
- Navigate to the Web Directory and Start the Server
Running the web server is documented in guix script.
curl http://127.0.0.1:8091/version
"4.0.0"
Documentation
Start with this file and then the documentation in doc.
Development
The current repository lives at
git clone tux02.genenetwork.org:/home/git/public/gn-guile
GNU Guile allows you to develop against a live running web server using emacs-geiser. To try this fire up the web server from the web directory as
cd web
unset GUIX_PROFILE
. .guix-shell -- guile -L .. --fresh-auto-compile --listen=1970 -e main ./webserver.scm 8091
Note the leading dot. The .guix-shell is defined in gn-guile/web and loads required packages using GNU Guix.
If you are on Debian you may need to unset GUIX_PROFILE first.
Welcome to the world of interactive Lisp programming
Next fire up emacs with emacs-geiser-guile and connect to the running web server with M-x geiser-connect and the port 1970. Now you can not only inspect procedures, but also update any prodedure on the live server using C-M-x on code, call and get updated output from the webserver! No need to save/reload files and all that.
Note that you may have to try different versions of guile+emacs to succeed.
Tools
Some tooling and scripts that run independently are stored in ./scripts.

git remote add gn git.genenetwork.org:/home/git/public/gn-guile
