These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Getting started

Prerequisites

You need to have node and npm installed in your machine

Installing

First things first, here's how to clone the repository:

 git clone https://github.coventry.ac.uk/5001CEM-1920SEPJAN/reisborw.git

After cloning the repository, run the following command in order to install all of the project's dependencies:

 npm install

After that, make sure you create a .env file. This will be where you set your environment variables, such as the port you want the project to run.

For now, all you need to get the project working are two variables, DB_NAME and SERVER_PORT. For example:

SERVER_PORT=8080
DB_NAME=faq.db

Once these steps are taken, you're ready to run the program. Both of the following commands are acceptable:

node index.js

or

npm run start

In this project you can run some different tests. These are:

Unit tests

These tests will make sure every function in the project are working and throwing the appropriate errors when wrong data is provided. In order to achieve that, simply run:

npm run test

If you would like to see how long each individual test takes to run, simply run:

npm run test-verbose
