Tech Stack

React/Redux + Node/Express + Sequelize/MySQL

Getting started (dev)

  • In the root directory: touch .env
    • Copy and paste the following into your .env:
    NODE_ENV=development
PORT=8000
DB_URL=http://localhost:2391
DB_NAME=got
DB_USER=root
DB_PORT=2391
  • npm install
  • npm install -g babel-cli
  • Check to make sure you have a database called 'got' in mysql:
    • In your terminal: mysql -u root
    • Then (you should now be in the mysql cli): show databases;
    • If you have 'got', you're fine.
    • Else, create database got;
    • You can now exit mysql
  • In one terminal window: npm start
  • In another terminal window: npm run db
  • In another terminal window: npm run watch
  • In another terminal window: npm run dev

Dev server should now serve files from http://localhost:4000. React components should be auto-updated, without need of browser refresh. Regular server will serve files from http://localhost:8000! We are using it currently as an endpoint which our dev server pings to grab data. The database has its own server, which should be operating on port 2391.

To use Redux Dev Tools (time travel etc)

Go to webpack.config.js and change NODE_ENV to JSON.stringify('development')
