Pebitoro Backend

This is the backend for the pebitoro project.

Prerequisites

1. Install PostgreSQL: Before setting up the project, make sure you have PostgreSQL installed on your system. This will allow you to connect to the database via the console.

   • For macOS, you can use Homebrew:

     brew install postgresql
     

   • For Ubuntu/Debian:

     sudo apt-get update
     sudo apt-get install postgresql
     

   • For Windows, download the installer from the official PostgreSQL website.

Setup

1. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

2. Create a .env file in the root directory and add the following variables:

   NODE_ENV=development
   DATABASE_URL=your_database_url_here
   JWT_SECRET=your_jwt_secret_here
   

   Replace your_database_url_here with your actual PostgreSQL database URL and your_jwt_secret_here with a secure secret for JWT token generation.

3. Set up the development environment:

   npm run docker:build
   

   This command will set up the necessary Docker containers for your development environment.

4. Generate database migrations:

   npm run db:generate
   npm run db:migrate
   

5. Start the development server:

   npm run dev
   

   This will start the server in watch mode, automatically restarting when changes are detected.
