To run this project locally:

• Clone this repo

  git clone https://github.com/josenriagu/furry-winner.git soclone

• Install dependencies

  npm install

• Create a .env file at the root of this project and put the variables below (if you don't specify NODE_ENV correctly, your server may not start and your database may not connect. lol)

  NODE_ENV=staging
  PORT=4000
  SECRET_KEY=placeYourDesiredSecretKeyHereWithNoSpaces
  

• Start Mongodb instance on your local machine on port 27017

  • Your main database will be created as mongodb://localhost:27017/soclone

  • While your test database (when you run tests) will be created as mongodb://localhost:27017/soclonetest

• Run tests

  npm test

  or

• Run tests while watching files for changes (you may need to specify a different PORT since it may conflict with starting your server)

  npm run test:watch

• Start server with Node

  npm start

• Start server with Nodemon (allows your server to refresh with file changes)

  npm run server
