Useage -

To use this project clone the repo -

    git clone https://github.com/jamilur-r/socializer.git

CD into the project directory

    cd socializer

Install packages

    cd api && yarn install
    cd ../tamuku && yarn install

create a nodemon.json file in root directry of "api". This file should contain project credentials like so -

{
    "env": {
        "PORT": <POST-NUMBER>,
        "DB_URI": <DB-URL>,
        "SECRET": <16-DIGIT-SECRET-KEY>
    }
}

To start API server cd into "api" directory and run -

    yarn dev

or

    yarn build

for production build

To start app on expo cd into "tamuku" directory and run -

    yarn android

    or

    yarn ios

Errors

You might face error connecting to local server from expo app. to solve this run -

    ipconfig

for windows and copy the ipv4 address which might be something like 192.168.0.107 now replace this in -

/tamuku/src/config/constants.ts

which looks something like this -

export const API_ENDPOINT = "http://<REPLACE_HERE>:5000/";
export const POST_SERVER = "http://<REPLACE_HERE>:5001";

also replace the IPV4 address in

api/utils/utils.ts

export const IP = "<REPLACE_HERE";
