### Option 1: Docker (Recommended)

```bash
# Clone repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd INDEX-SISTEM-JOCURI

# Build and start services
docker-compose up --build

# Access application
open http://localhost:5000
```

### Option 2: Local Development

```bash
# Install Pipenv if not already installed
pip install pipenv

# Install dependencies
pipenv install

# Activate virtual environment
pipenv shell

# Index activities from INDEX_MASTER
python scripts/index_data.py --clear

# Start application
python app/main.py
```

## 📚 Usage

### Web Interface

1. **Main Search**: Navigate to http://localhost:5000
2. **Filter Activities**: Use dropdown filters for precise results
3. **View Details**: Click activity titles for comprehensive information
4. **Health Check**: Monitor at http://localhost:5000/health

### Command Line Tools

```bash
# Index all activities
python scripts/index_data.py --clear

# Index specific category
python scripts/index_data.py --category "[A]"

# View database statistics
python scripts/index_data.py --stats

# Verify indexing quality
python scripts/index_data.py --verify
```

## 🔍 Search Features

### Full-Text Search
- **Romanian Diacritics**: Automatic handling of ă, â, î, ș, ț
- **Phrase Search**: Exact phrase matching with fallback
- **Relevance Ranking**: Intelligent scoring based on title, description, keywords

### Advanced Filters
- **Category**: 8 main activity categories
- **Age Group**: Specific age ranges (5-8, 8-12, 12-16, 16+)
- **Participants**: Group size filtering
- **Duration**: Time-based activity selection
- **Materials**: Filter by required materials
- **Difficulty**: Activity complexity levels

### API Endpoints
- `GET /api/search?q=keyword` - JSON search results
- `GET /api/statistics` - Database statistics
- `GET /api/filters` - Available filter options
- `GET /health` - Application health status

## 🗄️ Database Schema

### Activities Table
- **Basic Info**: name, description, rules, variations
- **Categories**: category, subcategory
- **Parameters**: age_group_min/max, participants_min/max, duration_min/max
- **Materials**: materials_category, materials_list
- **Metadata**: keywords, tags, popularity_score, source info

### Search Index (FTS5)
- **Full-Text**: name, description, rules, variations, keywords
- **Performance**: Optimized for 500+ activities
- **Triggers**: Automatic sync with main table

## 🎯 Data Sources

The system processes activities from **INDEX_MASTER_JOCURI_ACTIVITATI.md** containing:

- **Total Files Analyzed**: 200+
- **Total Activities Catalogued**: 2000+
- **Current Extraction**: 63 activities from explicit patterns
- **Enhancement Potential**: Parser can be extended for 500+ activities

### Categories Covered
1. **[A] Jocuri Cercetășești și Scout** (38 activities)

## 🚀 Deployment

### Production Environment

```bash
# Set environment variables
export FLASK_ENV=production
export SECRET_KEY=your-secure-secret-key
export DATABASE_URL=/app/data/activities.db

# Start with docker-compose
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
```

### Environment Variables
- `FLASK_ENV`: application environment (development/production)
- `SECRET_KEY`: Flask secret key for sessions
- `DATABASE_URL`: SQLite database path
- `SEARCH_RESULTS_LIMIT`: Maximum search results (default: 100)

## 🧪 Testing

### Manual Testing
```bash
# Test search functionality
curl "http://localhost:5000/api/search?q=acting"

# Check application health
curl http://localhost:5000/health

# View database statistics
curl http://localhost:5000/api/statistics
```

## 🔧 Development

### Managing Dependencies

```bash
# Install new package
pipenv install package-name

# Install development dependencies
pipenv install package-name --dev

# Update dependencies
pipenv update

# Generate requirements.txt (if needed for compatibility)
pipenv requirements > requirements.txt
```

### Adding New Activities
1. Update INDEX_MASTER_JOCURI_ACTIVITATI.md
2. Run `python scripts/index_data.py --clear`
3. Verify with `python scripts/index_data.py --stats`

### Enhancing the Parser
- Modify `app/services/parser.py` to extract more patterns
- Add new extraction methods in `_parse_subsections()`
- Test changes with specific categories

## 📈 Performance

### Current Metrics
- **Index Time**: ~0.5 seconds for 63 activities
- **Search Response**: <100ms average
- **Database Size**: ~116KB
- **Memory Usage**: <50MB

### Optimization Features
- SQLite FTS5 for full-text search
- Indexed columns for filters
- Connection pooling
- Query optimization

## 🛡️ Security

### Implemented Measures
- Input sanitization and validation
- SQL injection protection via parameterized queries
- Path traversal protection for file access
- Non-root Docker container execution
- Environment variable configuration

### Production Considerations
- Set secure SECRET_KEY
- Use HTTPS in production
- Regular database backups
- Monitor application logs
