FGL Database

This is the server for the FGL Database, a terminal based communication platform for the Future Gadget Lab. This started as a joke, but I enjoyed developing it, and my friends enjoyed using it.

You can build the server and client to create your own server, based on your own needs.

Configuration

Before you are able to run the server, you must have a PostgreSQL database running, and you must edit db/dbConfig.json with your database's information.

You may also choose a port in config/config.json, or leave it as 2814. More configuration options are coming soon.
