Sample web application
Minimal 3 tier web application
- React frontend
- Node JS and Golang APIs
- Postgres Database
Running the Application
While the whole point of this course is that you probably won't want/need to run the application locally (See: 11-development-workflow), we can do so as a starting point.
The Makefile contains the commands to start each application.
Postgres
It's way more convenient to run postgres in a container as we saw in 04-using-3rd-party-containers, so we will do that.
make run-postgres will start postgres in a container and publish port 5432 from the container to your localhost.
api-node
To run the node api you will need to run npm install to install the dependencies (I used node v19.4.0 and npm v9.2.0).
After installing the dependencies, make run-api-node will run the api in development mode with nodemon for restarting the app when you make source code changes.
api-golang
To run the golang api you will need to run go mod download to download and install the dependencies (I used go1.19.1)
After installing the dependencies, make run-api-golang will build and run the api.
client-react
Like api-node, you will first need to install the dependencies with npm install (again, I used node v19.4.0 and npm v9.2.0)
After installing the dependencies, make run-client-react will use vite to run the react app in development mode.
