installing

Currently installation is only possible for development. The things you'll need:

• RethinkDB - https://www.rethinkdb.com/docs/install
• Node - https://nodejs.org/en/download
• NPM - (comes with node)
• Git - https://git-scm.com/downloads

Once you downloaded and installed these, it's time to clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/healthiers/healthiers.git

Now change to the cloned directory

cd healthiers

You can see the most important directories of the project: client and graphql-server

It's time to install the NPM dependencies in the root folder and both client and graphql-server - note that on windows you might have to do these as separate commands, the && might not work.

npm install
cd client && npm install && cd ..
cd server && npm install && cd ..

Now everything should be properly installed, you can start and initialize your database.

Run this in the root folder:

npm run init-db

The app is ready to be run

npm run start-dev

This command will start 3 processes:

1. The database (RethinkDB)
2. Automatic watching and updating of the server
3. Automatic watching and updating of the client

You can access the running application using

1. http://localhost:3000 - (client)
2. http://localhost:3000/explore - (gui for exploring the GraphQL API)
3. http://localhost:3000/api - (the GraphQL API itself)

used technologies

overall

• babel - to transform our ES6/2015/Whatever code to ES5
• eslint - to ensure code quality and prevent code smell
• jest - for running tests

server

• express - for serving content
• graphql - for creating easy to use endpoint for our data
• jwt - for authentication (TODO this needs a lot of work to make it truly safe)

client

• react - for managing the UI
• redux - for predictable state management
• redux-observable - for predictable sideeffect
