Python deps: smart missing-package hint + switch to .vrf requirements file
Option A: when a {python} cell fails with ModuleNotFoundError/ImportError, the
log now suggests the exact PyPI package to add (with a module->package map, e.g.
cv2 -> opencv-python, sklearn -> scikit-learn), names the Verso requirements
file, and notes it could instead be a local module — so the langmuirthermalstudy
case isn't mistaken for a PyPI package.

Switch the per-project requirements file from requirements.txt to a Verso-
specific requirements.vrf (so it won't be confused with arbitrary .txt files);
QuartoRunner now looks for requirements.vrf, and 'vrf' is registered as an
editable text extension. The dedicated in-UI editor (and hiding it from the
file tree) follows in a separate change.

overleaf/web

overleaf/web is the front-end web service of the open-source web-based collaborative LaTeX editor, Overleaf. It serves all the HTML pages, CSS and javascript to the client. overleaf/web also contains a lot of logic around creating and editing projects, and account management.

The rest of the Overleaf stack, along with information about contributing can be found in the overleaf/overleaf repository.

Running the app

The app runs natively using yarn and Node on the local system:

$ yarn install
$ yarn run start

Running Tests

To run all tests run:

make test

To run both unit and acceptance tests for a module run:

make test_module MODULE=saas-authentication

Unit Tests

The test suites run in Docker.

Unit tests can be run in the test_unit container defined in docker-compose.tests.yml.

The makefile contains a short cut to run these:

make test_unit

During development it is often useful to only run a subset of tests, which can be configured with arguments to the mocha CLI:

make test_unit MOCHA_GREP='AuthorizationManager'

To run only the unit tests for a single module do:

make test_unit_module MODULE=saas-authentication

Module tests can also use a MOCHA_GREP argument:

make test_unit_module MODULE=saas-authentication MOCHA_GREP=SSO

Acceptance Tests

Acceptance tests are run against a live service, which runs in the acceptance_test container defined in docker-compose.tests.yml.

To run the tests out-of-the-box, the makefile defines:

make test_acceptance

However, during development it is often useful to leave the service running for rapid iteration on the acceptance tests. This can be done with:

make test_acceptance_app_start_service
make test_acceptance_app_run # Run as many times as needed during development
make test_acceptance_app_stop_service

make test_acceptance just runs these three commands in sequence and then runs make test_acceptance_modules which performs the tests for each module in the modules directory. (Note that there is not currently an equivalent to the -start / -run x n / -stop series for modules.)

During development it is often useful to only run a subset of tests, which can be configured with arguments to the mocha CLI:

make test_acceptance_run MOCHA_GREP='AuthorizationManager'

To run only the acceptance tests for a single module do:

make test_acceptance_module MODULE=saas-authentication

Module tests can also use a MOCHA_GREP argument:

make test_acceptance_module MODULE=saas-authentication MOCHA_GREP=SSO
