Bash Challenges API

Making infrastructure changes

To make any changes to the infrastructure, update the serverless.yml file and run $ npm run deploy.

At the moment, any changes to the DynamoDB Tables also need to be made in the /localLib/createTable.js file.

Development:

To run the API locally:

$ npm run dev

To run a local DynamoDB instance on port 8800:

$ java -Djava.library.path=~/dynamodb/SynamoDBLocal_lib -jar ~/dynamodb/DynamoDBLocal.jar -sharedDb -port 8800

To create the necessary local tables:

$ node ./localLib/createTable.js

To seed a local DynamoDB instance:

$ NODE_ENV=development node ./localLib/seed.js

Production

To add a new JSON file to the production database (including uploading associated files to S3), run:

$ NODE_ENV=production node putChallenge.js <challenge-number>

Where <challenge-number> is the numeric name of the JSON file, e.g.:

$ NODE_ENV=production node putChallenge.js 6

To update a challenge, simply run the same command:

$ NODE_ENV=production node putChallenge.js 6
