koa-hackathon-starter

Koa boilerplate app which uses postgres as it's database and Sequelize as an ORM.

Setup

1. Copy .env.example into .env and fill it out.
2. Change the package name (and other details) in package.json.
3. Setup the packages with npm install, make yourself a cup of tea this can take long.
4. Create a database (with the same name in your .env) using your favourite DB admin tool.
5. Run npm run createscripts, this will handle permissions for all the scripts in bin/.
6. Run npm run createtables, this will create tables in your database from your models.
7. Put your frontend in static/.
8. You're done! Launch the app with npm run serve:dev and open it in your browser.

TODO

• Dockerize - use docker-compose so that you can have different containers for db and app
