Backend

Back end code repository for SENG499 Summer 2022 project.

Develop

To run the backend locally you need to run a Postgres database and the GraphQL server separately. After cloning the repo, follow these steps to get things up and running:

1. Run npm ci to install the project's dependencies
2. Run docker-compose up to boot up a Docker container running the Postgres database
3. Run ./setup.sh to start the GraphQL server at http://localhost:4000/. This script does the following:
   • Runs necessary database migrations
   • Seeds the database with dummy data for testing
   • Runs the server (automatically reloads with changes to codebase)

Authorization

To run queries and mutations in Apollo Server that rely on authentication, you need to pass a valid token in the Authorization request header. You can do that by going to the Headers tab near the bottom of Apollo Server:

The following tokens can be entered for different testing purposes:
