# Local Development Mode
|
|
|
|
This document explains how to run the Netflix GraphRAG application in local development mode without requiring MSAL authentication.
|
|
|
|
## Authentication Bypass
|
|
|
|
When running the application in local development mode (PRODUCTION=false), the authentication system is automatically bypassed:
|
|
|
|
1. The frontend will not redirect to Microsoft login
|
|
2. A default user "dev_user@local" is automatically used for all API requests
|
|
3. You can directly start using the application without any login
|
|
|
|
## Setup Instructions
|
|
|
|
1. Ensure you have a `.env` file in the project root with:
|
|
```
|
|
PRODUCTION=false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Start the backend server:
|
|
```bash
|
|
python main.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Start the frontend development server:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd chat-interface
|
|
npm run dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. Access the application at http://localhost:5173
|
|
|
|
## How it Works
|
|
|
|
- The frontend (auth.js) automatically bypasses authentication checks when in development mode
|
|
- The backend (routes.py) checks for `PRODUCTION=false` in all authenticated endpoints
|
|
- When `PRODUCTION=false` and no username is provided, the backend uses "dev_user@local"
|
|
- All conversations and messages will be associated with this default user
|
|
|
|
## Switching to Production Mode
|
|
|
|
To disable the authentication bypass and use real MSAL authentication:
|
|
|
|
1. Set `PRODUCTION=true` in your `.env` file
|
|
2. Restart both frontend and backend servers
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
- If you encounter authentication errors, make sure PRODUCTION is set to "false" in the .env file
|
|
- Ensure the backend is running before accessing the frontend
|
|
- Check for any error messages in both the frontend and backend consoles |
