How to setup local environment with test data

In order to work with test data through localhost, you will need to create a local database container, manticore container, and then run the populateDatabase script from the podverse-api repo. We have a Makefile to make this process easier.

Prerequisites

The repos you will potentially need to clone locally include:

  • podverse-ops
  • podverse-api
  • podverse-rn
  • podverse-web

You will also need Docker installed to run the make / docker compose commands.

Local setup steps

  1. From the root of the podverse-ops repo, run make local_up_db.
  2. From the root of the podverse-ops repo, run make local_up_manticore_server.
  3. You will need to setup the environment variables in the podverse-api repo before running commands in it. You can find a sample podverse-api localhost config with comments here.
  4. From the root of the podverse-api repo, run yarn dev:seeds:qa:populateDatabase.
  5. From the root of the podverse-ops repo, run make local_manticore_indexes_init.

Your local environment should now be ready to receive API requests and return data.

If you add more podcasts to your local database and would like them to show up in the Manticore search results, you will need to refresh the Manticore indexes by running make local_manticore_indexes_rotate.

For making requests to podverse-api, you can find our latest Postman collection here.
