Storefront Backend Project

Getting Started

• run : yarn install to install the dependencies
• build : yarn run build
• start the server : yarn run start

server run on port : 3000

Connect the database

I have included my .env file and down here is the schema of my file

Create a .env file with the following details :

• POSTGRES_HOST= host
• POSTGRES_DB= database name
• POSTGRES_DB_TEST= database name for tests
• POSTGRES_USER= database user username
• POSTGRES_USER_PASSWORD= database user password
• ENV= "dev" or "test"
• BCRYPT_PASSWORD= pepper for bcrypt
• SALT_ROUNDS= salt rounds for bcrypt
• TOKEN_SECRET= secret for jsonwebtoken

After creating that file everything should be working

• I use postgres locally because I didn't manage to connect the server to the database in docker container

Test with jasmine

Test are run on the test database : make sure to set ENV=test before running the tests run tests with : yarn run test

Test endpoints with postman

I added a table for categories. I added the endpoints for categories in REQUIREMENTS.md

So these are the steps to start adding product:

1. create a category
2. create a product
3. create a user
4. create an order

and from there you are good to go.
