How to run locally

Install Node.js

How to Run Locally

1. Fork this repository
2. Rename your fork to acebook-Makebook-<your name>
3. Clone your fork to your local machine
4. Install Node.js dependencies

   npm install
   

5. Install an ESLint plugin for your editor. For example: linter-eslint for vscode.

Start

1. Start the server

   npm start
   

2. Browse to http://localhost:3000

Start test server

The server must be running locally with test configuration for the integration tests to pass.

npm run start:test

This starts the server on port 3030 and uses the acebook_test MongoDB database, so that integration tests do not interact with the development server.

Test

• Run all tests

  npm test
  

• Run a check

  npm run lint              # linter only
  npm run test:unit         # unit tests only
  npm run test:integration  # integration tests only
