## Getting Started

### Installation

#### From pip
```
pip install --upgrade evc
```

#### Manual install
```
git clone https://github.com/evbg/evc.git
cd evc
python setup.py install
```

#### Installing directly from the [repository](https://github.com/evbg/evc) on GitHub.com
```
pip install git+https://github.com/evbg/evc.git
```


### Requirements

evc requires [requests](https://pypi.org/project/requests/) and [simplejson](https://pypi.org/project/simplejson/) libraries.


## Running the tests

Evc has been tested on the following versions of Python: 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, pypy, pypy3.

### Integration tests with the Eve framework

#### Prerequisites

To run tests on a localhost, it is necessary that the MongoDB service is started with access control disabled.

#### Running the tests via [tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/) tool
```
git clone https://github.com/evbg/evc.git
cd evc
tox
```


## Example of usage

The following example shows the use of evc through the Python interactive shell:

### First, run the server "Eve"

```
    Python 2.7.5 (default, Mar  9 2014, 22:15:05)
    [GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 5.0 (clang-500.0.68)] on darwin
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> from eve import Eve
    >>> settings = {'XML': False, 'JSON': True, 'SERVER_NAME': '127.0.0.1:5555', 'MONGO_DBNAME': 'evc_test'}
    >>> settings['RESOURCE_METHODS'] = ['GET', 'POST', 'DELETE']
    >>> settings['ITEM_METHODS'] = ['GET', 'PATCH', 'PUT', 'DELETE']
    >>> settings['DOMAIN'] = {'persons': {'versioning': True, 'allow_unknown': True, 'schema': {}}}
    >>> app = Eve(settings=settings)
    >>> app.run()
     * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5555/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
```

### Second, run the client "Evc"
