Development

Edit the .env file as necessary (Have to rename it from .env.example to .env too).

• REDIS_ variables will have to be configured for a local/remote server. They're configured for docker by default.
• MAILJET_ and EMAIL_ variables will have to be set if mail is to be sent.

Run both commands in parallel:

npm run dev
npm start

You good.

Deployment

.env will again have to be configured for your deployment setup.

If running with docker, Caddyfile will also need some changes (domain name etc).

Deployment Without Docker:

Run npm run build to make sure you have the latest frontend assets.

Then run npm start to start the websocket server.

You'll need a web server like nginx or caddy to serve the assets and proxy the websocket server.

Deployment With Docker:

After editing the .env and Caddyfile files, only thing you need should be:

docker-compose up -d
