# API-server
|
|
Apollo server written in typescript that handles business logic.
|
|
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.com/fLotte-meets-HWR-DB/apollo-server)
|
|
|
|
## Assumptions
|
|
The [flotte-user-management server](https://github.com/fLotte-meets-HWR-DB/flotte-user-management) and postgres are running. Set the [environment variables](#Environment-Variables) accordingly.
|
|
## Usage
|
|
### Docker
|
|
You can build and run a docker image with
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker build -t <image name> .
|
|
docker run --rm -p 4000:4000 <image name> -e ...
|
|
```
|
|
Don't forget to pass all the [environment variables](#Environment-Variables) with the -e option.
|
|
### Compile and Run
|
|
Install gulp if not installed
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm -g gulp
|
|
```
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
gulp
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
You can set the [environment variables](#Environment-Variables) in a _.env_ file.
|
|
### For Development
|
|
Install node\_modules and gulp
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm -g gulp
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
Start gulp in watch mode to recompile the type script
|
|
```bash
|
|
gulp watchTs
|
|
```
|
|
This will watch *.ts files in _./src_ and recompile to _./dist_. You will have to restart the server yourself.
|
|
|
|
## Environment Variables
|
|
The following environment variables can be used to configure the server:
|
|
```bash
|
|
RPC_HOST=host:port
|
|
NODE_ENV=develop/production
|
|
DATABASE_URL=postgres://username:password@host:port/database_name
|
|
```
|
|
- __RPC_HOST__ is used for the connection with the [flotte-user-management server](https://github.com/fLotte-meets-HWR-DB/flotte-user-management).
|
|
- __NODE_ENV__ will not check authentication if set to development
|
|
- __DATABASE_URL__ for connection with the postgres database
|
|
|
|
If the API server cannot connect to the [flotte-user-management server](https://github.com/fLotte-meets-HWR-DB/flotte-user-management) or the postgres data base. It will try to reconnect in an endless loop.
