Install

This should be all that's needed:

• node

• npm

• https://github.com/peterldowns/pgmigrate

  • MAC: Install the newest version with brew install peterldowns/tap/pgmigrate
  • Linux: # Install pgmigrate
    • wget https://github.com/peterldowns/pgmigrate/releases/download/v0.0.6%2Bcommit.4f90829/pgmigrate-linux-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/pgmigrate
    • chmod +x /usr/local/bin/pgmigrate

• Docker, either of these installation options work (if you're new to docker, I recommend Docker Desktop):

  • brew install docker + brew install colima (https://github.com/abiosoft/colima)
  • Docker Desktop
    • WSL 2: Enabling systemd is recommended
      • Install Docker Desktop on Windows
      • Turn on the WSL 2 feature during installation
      • Ensure Use the WSL 2 based engine is enabled in General Settings

• psql: brew install postgresql@15

Running locally

• Run PostgreSQL:
  • Init .env files ./init-env.sh — This will create the required .env files for environment variables. The local db credentials are
    • DB_HOST=localhost
    • DB_PORT=7742
    • DB_USER=ohtu
    • DB_PASSWORD=password
    • DB_NAME=gradesa
  • docker-compose up -d — This command starts the services defined in the docker-compose.yml file in detached mode, meaning the services run in the background and the terminal is freed up for other tasks. For more information, checkout Docker Compose docs
  • npm install in project root
  • cd ./gradesa && npm install
  • npm run dev — Starts the dev server.
  • You can now find the NextJS app on localhost:3000
