Simple and efficient hardware checkout system

Server setup

Required items:

A postrgesql server and database
Install dependencies: yarn install
Configure the required environment variables in configs/config.json. You can copy and rename configs/configs.json.example.
Run the database migrations using yarn migrate:dev.
Start the server for development with yarn dev

Client setup

Note: the hardware desk page (/admin/desk) relies on a WebSocket connection to the server. The client assumes that you are running the server on port 3000. If this isn't right, then you'll need to update the port in

The proxy property in the client's package.json file
The local development WebSocket URL in client/index.tsx
baseUrl in client/src/components/admin/AdminOverviewContainer.tsx

to use the correct server port. Make sure you don't commit the files with the changed port!

REACT_APP_ENABLE_BUGSNAG	"true" or "false" whether to enable the Bugsnag integration. Keep disabled for local development unless testing Bugsnag-specific features
REACT_APP_BUGSNAG_API_KEY	Required if REACT_APP_ENABLE_BUGSNAG is enabled. Value should be the Notifier API Key for the Bugsnag project

Development

For local development:
- Access server endpoints, such as authentication, using the development server.
- For frontend development, run yarn start inside the /client directory.
You can find GraphiQL at /api/graphiql, but note that this endpoint is restricted to admin users. For local development, promote your account to an admin in order to access GraphiQL.

Code Style

Code style is enforced by eslint, prettier, and stylelint via config.
