Windows: .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

STEP 3: Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

STEP 4: Run backend

python manage.py runserver

TESTING: JACCARD

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @test_user.json http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/feed/jaccard/

• Since there are so many data points (~400,000), you can try changing the line 83 in listings.py to change results from descending to ascending and see the top scores in the terminal.
• Here is the new line that should go there:

sortedScores = sorted(scores.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[1], reverse=False)

TESTING: COSINE

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @test_user.json http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/feed/cosine/

• Same goes for the cosine test. By changing line 72 in listings.py to change results from descending to ascending and see the top scores in the terminal.
• Here is the new line that should go there:

sortedScores = sorted(scores.items(), key=lambda kv: kv[1], reverse=False)
