LEGS(ARMS back-end)

Files you need to create

Create a .env and ensure that the .env file is in .gitignore. The JWT secret key from the test-armadillo-legs app in Heroku currently matches what is hashed in the mongo command in the arms circleci dropDb job. If it is replaced, then the hashed password in the mongo command must also be changed to match it.

{
  JWT_SECRET_KEY=<Generate your own>
}

Seed your local DB copy with an initial admin user to allow cypress tests to be ran

Using your own JWT_SECRET_KEY, generate a hash password to be used with the following mongo command to run on your local DB to create the first initial Admin user:

db.users.insertOne({email:'baqa@thoughtworks.com',password:,role:'admin'})

when using the bash shell remember to use escape characters for dollar signs characters in the hashed password.

This command is also used in ARMS (Front-end) for the config.yml file to seed the first admin user for testing.
