backend

Getting started :

Prerequisites

• Mongo

  • Before running the web server or seeding, make sure to set the MongoDB credentials properly in config.yaml

• Zitadel

  • Also make sure that a Zitadel instance is up and running, Zitadel is used for auth in the project.

  • Make sure to create a Zitadel api app inside your project and download the zitadel-key.json to a safe location

  • Make sure the domain, port and key path are set properly in config.yaml

    Note that Zitadel needs to be reachable using the same domain from the backend and the frontend, docker produced notable connection issues regarding the hostname, which requires additional settings like adding a reverse proxy to be able to reach it using the same hostname as from the browser.

Running the web server

• Run go run . in the backend root directory to run the server

DB Seeding

• Run go run . seed in the backend directory which will prompt for entities to seed.

  Warning quiting the prompt with ctrl+q or esc will run the seeding process, if you want to quit, just deselect all the entities
