TaskMaster

TaskMaster is a ToDo manager that aims to help users keep track of and categorise their task easily. Made with React and Ruby on Rails connected to a MySQL database

Getting Started Locally

Backend

Create a file called app_environment_variables.rb in Backend/config that looks like this:

ENV['DATABASE_USERNAME'] = '<your db username>'
ENV['DATABASE_PASSWORD'] = '<your db password> '
ENV['DATABASE_HOST'] = '<db url like XXXXX.amazonaws.com>'
ENV['JWT_SECRET'] = '<a JWT secret of your choice>'
ENV['JWT_ALGO'] = 'HS256'

Run the backend rails server using docker

cd Backend
docker-compose up

The server is hosted on http://localhost:3001

Frontend

Create a .env.local file that looks like this:

NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL="https:<backend url, in this case it can be taskmaster...herokuapp.com>/api/v1"
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_ENV="development" // or "production"

Open http://localhost:3001 with your browser to see the result.

Run the development server to launch NextJS in the frontend:

yarn run dev

The frontend is hosted on http://localhost:8888

Open http://localhost:8888 with your browser to see the result.
