  • Node.JS

  1. Clone this repository git clone https://github.com/clickpop/backtalk-api.git

  2. Enter repository cd backtalk-api

  3. Make sure Postgres is installed / running

  4. Update .env file with appropriate Postgres settings

  5. Setup the project using one of the following:

    • DON'T HAVE THE DATABASE YET (you'll still need Postgres running) npm run setup

    • HAVE A DATABASE AND WANT TO WIPE IT OUT: npm run setup:clean

    • HAVA A DATABASE AND WANT TO KEEP THE DATA INTACT (will add new migrations) npm run setup:keep

  6. Start the server npm run dev

A note on docker

Feel free to use the docker npm scripts we have setup. Just be sure that all of the stuff labeled under the Database and Docker sections of the .env are filled in with the correct information.

If you want this to also handle the frontend you just need to clone the backtalk-ui repo into a folder called 'client'. The npm run docker-up:combined command will handle the rest.

If you need help with this, please feel free to reach out.

A Word about Contributing

Note: We will not accept any PR's that don't follow our Guidelines

This project now utilizes Git-Flow. Internally, we use HubFlow as a CLI tool to help manage our Git-Flow feature, release, and hotfix branches. While not necessary, it is highly recommended that you utilize a similar CLI tool, to help enforce the guidelines we've outlined in the Backtalk Contributing Guidelines.
