Implement Stepzen Backend

[kctoft]

Action Items

• [X] Create a StepZen account & register

  Don't do a -g (global install). "If the package is installed globally, then that package can't have different versions for different applications. By installing the package locally, we can ensure that each program can have its local package of the desired version" Rather do a local install to ensure version control.

• [X] Create backend folder named stepzen
• [X] cd into the stepzen directory & log onto StepZen following the steps in install-and-setup
• [x] Follow the Quickstart with stepzen import CLI & do a curl authentication request using my own styilized url from Open-Mateo's Free Weather API
• [X] View Open-Mateo's Free Weather API & see documentation to create your own stylized weather API
• [X] Create a file testCurl.txt using the Free Weather go get API URL & save it to this file

Special note: when designing the Weather API endpoint, be sure to be in the stepzen folder.

• [x] log in sing your account & admin key credentials
• [x] type stepzen init to create a new endpoint
• [x] using the stylized weather API that was just configured, curl it using the following command: stepzen import curl the ur

Since I am using Nix flake, my node_modules folder needs to be accessed in a particular way (see example below).

 PATH=$PWD/node_modules/.bin:$PATH stepzen import curl "https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast?latitude=51.51&longitude=-0.13&hourly=temperature_2m,relativehumidity_2m,apparent_temperature,precipitation_probability,precipitation,rain,showers,snowfall,snow_depth,windgusts_10m,uv_index,uv_index_clear_sky&daily=weathercode,temperature_2m_max,temperature_2m_min,apparent_temperature_max,apparent_temperature_min,sunrise,sunset,uv_index_max,uv_index_clear_sky_max&temperature_unit=fahrenheit&windspeed_unit=mph&precipitation_unit=inch&timezone=America%2FLos_Angeles"

When that is successful the terminal response will be "Successfully imported curl data source into your GraphQL schema" & there will be new folders in the stepzen folder containing relavent data to your particular endpoint. git commit: 9994809879446e8e928a0d5e10fcecfa544d0234

• [x] Deploy the StepZen API & set up localhost instance using PATH=$PWD/node_modules/.bin:$PATH stepzen start
• [x] click the link from explore it with GraphiQL at which will deploy that particular endpoint under your StepZen dashboard (alt: link) Special Note: Don't forget to use the local flag: PATH=$PWD/node_modules/.bin:$PATH stepzen start --dashboard=local to gain access to the localhost:5001 URL 2b25872af7470b3112435420f6d58d97454a6440

• [x] create file at the top level called typings.d.ts
• [x] install Apollo Client
• [X] create a new file at top level called apollo-client which essentially allows us to create a client for the backend 8573dc567583425f16a8781e4320bbce95d3b6b2

• [x] create two new folders from top lvl called: graphql -> queries -> (FILE) fetchWeatherQueries.ts

• [x] Fixed 405 bug: the API URL was incorrect and the format for StepZen --> Apollo Client needed to be updated da840f76b2853fd9a3c872f6cb3dc0155b15af19
• [x] updated flake to include commands for running frontend and backend (see README.md and devshell.toml for details)
