How to Run The Project

First start mysql server with docker:

docker run -p 3306:3306 --name mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=dbpass -e MYSQL_DATABASE=hackernews -d mysql:latest

Then create a Table names hackernews for our app:

docker exec -it mysql bash
mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE hackernews;

finally run the server:

go run server/server.go

Now navigate to https://localhost:8080 you can see graphiql playground and query the graphql server.
