Backend Bank Challenge in Go

Backend Challenge Project in GO

This project is to learn the Go language, Gin framework, and GORM (Go ORM). Also to learn more about docker and docker-compose, mostly creating the dockerfile and also how everything is connected.

How to run locally

1. Install postgres https://www.postgresql.org/

2. Set up your environment variables. For me, Currently I have them in my .zshrc file since I plan on using docker compose to set them up.

   export BANK_HOST=localhost
   export BANK_USER=postgres
   export BANK_PASSWORD=postgres
   export BANK_DB=bank_challenge
   export BANK_PORT=5432

3. Run the necessary migrations (currently just one)

   > go run migrate/2024_03_16_migrate.go

4. Build and run the app

   > go build .
   > ./bank_challenge
   
   # alternatively you can also just run the app
   > go run .

How to run using docker-compose
