Overview
Functionalities
Project setup
Before anything, rename the .env.dev file as .env, then install the dependencies with the following command:
npm install
Compiles and hot-reloads for development
npm start
Using Sequelize
Sequelize is the ORM of choice for Tales of Galaxy. You can change the default config in config/sequelize.js. This is where the path of the migrations, seeders, and models are defined.
Sequelize CLI
A custom script in package.json redefines the sequelize command and provides a path to the config file mentionned before.
npm run sequelize -- <command>
You can regenerate the database (ie. resetting the migrations and populating the db with seeders) by running the following command:
npm run regenerate-db
