Database

We are going to use Postgres for our backend. If you don't have it installed.... then figure it out :)

User Setup

We are going to need 3 different users to keep permissions segmented in the database. Development and Test are to only be used on local machines, any production machine needs to have passwords for database stored in a different place, not in this directory.

While developing we will only need 2 users, the test and development. Don't bother creating the production one until we need it.

Postgres Create User

nextnest_development

createuser -U postgres -h localhost -E -p 5432 -d -w nexnest_development

sudo -u postgres psql -U postgres -c "alter user nexnest_development with password 'domislove';"

nextnest_test

createuser -U postgres -h localhost -E -p 5432 -d -w nexnest_test

sudo -u postgres psql -U postgres -c "alter user nexnest_test with password 'domislove';"

Database Setup

nextnest_development

createdb -U nexnest_development -O nexnest_development -h localhost -p 5432 nexnest_development

nextnest_test

createdb -U nexnest_test -O nexnest_test -h localhost -p 5432 nexnest_test

Vagrant

Vagrant allows us to develop in the same environment as well as giving Kyle the ability to influence our environment with whatever he has set up for produciton.

1. First install VirtualBox!
2. Then install Vagrant :)

Make sure you have CPU virtualization turned on in your BIOS. Usually it is turned off by default.

THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! You must use a bash cli with SSH capabilities. The easiest way to do this is just use GitBash

Vagrant Initialization

1. cd into the project directory on your computer
2. type vagrant up, this will boot a virtual machine
3. Once that is done running ssh into the machine by typing vagrant ssh
4. cd to our mounted project directory at /vagrant so ... cd /vagrant
5. Type make install to install all the python packages and initialize our database!

Production Setup

git remote add stage ssh://nexnest@dev.nexnest.com/home/nexnest/nexnest
