Getting Started

1. Create the .env by using .env.example as a reference: cp .env.example .env
2. Update the .env file with your correct local information

• username: labber
• password: labber
• database: midterm

3. Install dependencies: npm i
4. Fix to binaries for sass: npm rebuild node-sass
5. Reset database: npm run db:reset

• Check the db folder to see what gets created and seeded in the SDB

7. Run the server: npm run local

• Note: nodemon is used, so you should not have to restart your server

8. Visit http://localhost:8080/

Warnings & Tips

• Do not edit the layout.css file directly, it is auto-generated by layout.scss
• Split routes into their own resource-based file names, as demonstrated with users.js and widgets.js
• Split database schema (table definitions) and seeds (inserts) into separate files, one per table. See db folder for pre-populated examples.
• Use the npm run db:reset command each time there is a change to the database schema or seeds.
  • It runs through each of the files, in order, and executes them against the database.
  • Note: you will lose all newly created (test) data each time this is run, since the schema files will tend to DROP the tables and recreate them.

Dependencies

• Node 10.x or above
• NPM 5.x or above
• PG 6.x
