Development

Database

To setup the project locally install Postgres and set PG_URL to your database. The format should postgres://USERNAME:PASSWORD@localhost/DB. The capitalized words should be replaced with your own values.

To export your variable on a Unix-system, simply use the export command, i.e. export PG_URL=your value.

Local production environment

Run npm run build to get a transpiled version of the API, then start with npm start.

Local development environment

If you're gonna develop:

1. Install nodemon npm install -g nodemon
2. Run npm run start:dev Remember that you can run it with environment variables in before the command, i.e. PG_URL=value npm run start:dev.

This will watch for changes and keep the application open for you.

Usage

1. Create your models with Sequelize and place in models/. Look at the example for inspiration.
2. Create a controller for the new entity by extending the common CRUD controller. See controllers/example.controller.js
3. Create routes for the entity, see routes/example.routes.js.
4. Rename the namespace in line 7 of models/index.js

That's about it.

Tests

Single run

• Run unit tests & code lint with npm test. This will use your local database.
• Run just unit tests with npm run tests with NODE_ENV=test. This will use your local database.

Watch

Run the unit tests continuously with npm run test:watch, only the tests currently worked on will run when updated. All tests will run when a server file is updated. This will use your local database.
