Development Setup

Each team member will need to do this on their local machine.

Ensure you have PostgreSQL installed

• Check if you have PostgreSQL installed
  • ✅ versions 10-14 should work
  • 🚫 version 15 has not been tested

Create a PostgreSQL user and database

The project-starter template expects the following for local development:

• PostgreSQL User/Role
  • name: team-meeter
  • password: ctp2022
• PostgreSQL Database
  • name: estudy

For Windows/pgAdmin users

If you are on Windows and installed pgAdmin follow our pgAdmin guide to create a user in PostgreSQL named team-meeter with the password ctp2022 and a database named estudy.

For Mac/Linux users

Create a user in PostgreSQL named team-meeter with the password ctp2022:

This only needs to be done one time on your machine You can create additional users if you want to.

createuser -P -s -e team-meeter

Create a separate db for this project:

createdb -h localhost -U team-meeter estudy

Running the app locally

For local development you will need two terminals open, one for the api-backend and another for the react-client.

Clone this app, then:

# api-backend terminal 1
cp .env.example .env
npm install
npm run dev

# react-client terminal 2
cd client
npm install
npm start

• api-backend will launch at: http://localhost:8080
• react-client will launch at: http://localhost:3000
• api documentation will be at: http://localhost:8080/api-docs

In production you will only deploy a single app. The react client will build into static files that will be served from the backend.
