ImLazy backend API

ImLazy was at the beggining only a Node.js bot using Puppeteer module to invite workaway members in the area to meetup. Then it evolved with a ReactJs UI and now taking a "SAAS template" form. (auth, user management...)

This project correspond to the backend API for the ImLazy app frontend. Node.js framework is used with Express module for the server. PostgreSQL is used for the database. Sequelize is used as an interface for the db. PassportJs is used for local and Google OAuth2 authentication.

1: Setup PostgreSQL

TODO: To fill up this part

• To fill up the db

2: Setup project

• git clone git@github.com:baptistesx/im-lazy-backend.git

• cd im-lazy-backend

• Ask for .env file to Baptiste
• Replace .env.dist with .env received

• npm i

The next steps are inspired by https://www.sqlshack.com/setting-up-a-postgresql-database-on-mac/ To work locally on macos :

• install brew: /bin/bash -c “$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)”

• brew update

• install postgres: brew install postgresql

• brew services start postgresql

• to stop the service: brew services stop postgresql

• configure postgres database server

• $ psql postgres CREATE ROLE newUser WITH LOGIN PASSWORD ‘password’; ALTER ROLE newUser CREATEDB;

• \q (to quit) (If error while connecting to psql server locally:

• rm /usr/local/var/postgres/postmaster.pid

• brew services restart postgresql)

• install pg admin to navigate Postgres Database server (https://www.pgadmin.org/download/)

• change DATABASE_DEV_URL env var with local username & password

• sequelize db:create

• sequelize db:migrate

• npm run dev

Various TODOs

• Setup error handler and backend logs save in file
• Use typescript strict
• Check Todos in the code
• Setup doc (swagger?)
• handle password management with google account (no management to do)
