Initializing The Project

• Install all Modules with npm i

• Connect to the default user on PSQL terminal and:

  • setup a dev database, run CREATE DATABASE storefront_db
  • setup a test database, run CREATE DATABASE storefront_db_test

• Create an environment variables file, the schema for the .env file is:

      POSTGRES_HOST     =     < db host HERE >
      POSTGRES_USER     =     < db user name HERE >
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD =     < db user password HERE >
      POSTGRES_DB       =     < db name HERE >
      POSTGRES_DB_TEST  =     < testing db name HERE >
      BCRYPT_SECRET     =     < Bcrypt passowrd HERE >
      SALT_ROUNDS       =     < Salt Rounds number HERE >
      TOKEN_SECRET      =     < Token Secret Key HERE > 
      ENV               = dev < * Default Environment 
                                  is dev DO NOT CHANGE * >
