## Usage
### ES Modules in Node
We use ECMAScript Modules in the backend in this project. Be sure to have at least Node v14.6+ or you will need to add the "--experimental-modules" flag.
Also, when importing a file (not a package), be sure to add .js at the end or you will get a "module not found" error
You can also install and setup Babel if you would like
### Env Variables
Create a .env file in then root and add the following
```
NODE_ENV = development
PORT = 5000
MONGO_URI = your mongodb uri
JWT_SECRET = 'abc123'
PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID = your paypal client id
```
### Install Dependencies (frontend & backend)
```
npm install
cd frontend
npm install
```
### Run
```
# Run frontend (:3000) & backend (:5000)
npm run dev
# Run backend only
npm run server
```
## Build & Deploy
```
# Create frontend prod build
cd frontend
npm run build
```
There is a Heroku postbuild script, so if you push to Heroku, no need to build manually for deployment to Heroku
### Seed Database
You can use the following commands to seed the database with some sample users and products as well as destroy all data
```
# Import data
npm run data:import
# Destroy data
npm run data:destroy
```
```
Sample User Logins
admin@example.com (Admin)
123456
john@example.com (Customer)
123456
jane@example.com (Customer)
123456
```
