Development

Local

• Install dependencies: npm install --legacy-peer-deps

• Start Postgres, Redis, ElasticSearch, and IPFS daemon

• Setup Environments: cp .env.example .env

• Run all migrations: npm run db:migrate

• Populate all seeds data if needed: npm run db:seed

• Run npm run start:dev, then go to http://localhost:4000/playground to GraphQL Playground.

• Run test cases: npm run test

• Run db rollup process; use the same psql command line parameters if modified in .env; (hint -d database and -U username, and -w to read saved password of psqlrc)

  (cd ./db; PSQL='psql -h localhost ... -w' bash -xe bin/refresh-lasts.sh )

DB migrations and seeds
