Build / Development Setup

Server .env

A .env file is not required to run this project in development. The project is setup to have fallbacks in the case where a .env is not present. For instance, if variables such as a MongoDB connection string are not present, the app will fire up a memory mongo server (a local mongodb installation is not required). However, a .env file can be added at the root of the server directory should you wish to specify particular vairables when running the project in development. Variables used are:

NODE_ENV=<development | production | test>
PORT=<http port to start the server on>
DB_STRING_production=<production mongodb conn string>
DB_STRING_test=<test mongodb conn string>
DB_STRING_development=<development mongodb conn string>
