Capstone Server Template

To start the server

run the command yarn && yarn start. This will install all the dependencies and build the docker image

To install packages

when you run yarn add PACKAGE the package will be installed in docker as well automatically. However if you run into issues, you need to stop the server first with yarn stop then you can run yarn build to rebuild the docker image and start again.

To prune the containers and data

⚠️ WARNING: This is a destructuve command that would delete the containers and all the data inside like database data, and uploads you can run yarn prune to shutdown the server and delete all the volumes associated with it. This serves as a start fresh command, that will return your server environment to original. It will not affect your code changes though.

Starter Code

In this project folder, you will find:

1. Express server setup in /index.js
2. The database connection is setup in db/connection.js
3. CORS is enabled and there's a test endpoint /test

Now the rest is for you to build on your own 😁
