How to start development:

1. Prepare the database

Change your database credential information at ./db/db-config.json:

{
    user: 'username',// your postgresql user
    host: 'localhost',// most of the time it will be localhost. If you use docker, please check their document
    database: 'contactsbook',// the database that your postgresql user account has rights to manage
    password: 'bdd8OC0qgd',// postgresql user account's password
    port: 5432// port number that your postgresql server is listening
}

Note: You must NOT commit your new configuration to the source code.

2. Setup database:

psql -U user-name -d database-name -a -f "./db/init.sql"

3. Folow connect-pg-simple's installation guide:

psql database-name < node_modules/connect-pg-simple/table.sql

4. Start the development server

npm start

If you make it right, your console will log: Database is connected! after you run one of these command to run the development server: npm start or:

Deploy the server:

npm run deploy
