Creating The DB

Use the psql -U development command to login to the PostgreSQL server with the username development and the password development. This command MUST be run in a vagrant terminal, we are using the PostgreSQL installation provided in the vagrant environment.

Create a database with the command CREATE DATABASE scheduler_development;.

Copy the .env.example file to .env.development and fill in the necessary PostgreSQL configuration. The node-postgres library uses these environment variables by default.

PGHOST=localhost
PGUSER=development
PGDATABASE=scheduler_development
PGPASSWORD=development
PGPORT=5432

Seeding

Run a the development server with npm start in the Host environment. We are only using vagrant for psql this week.

Both of these achieve the same result.

• Make a GET request to /api/debug/reset with curl http://localhost:8001/api/debug/reset.
• Use the browser to navigate to http://localhost:8001/api/debug/reset.

The development data is random. Each time we seed we expect to see different appointments.
