A) Backend (API) Installation

Go to vamshop-api directory.

• Change settings at config/server.js

• Open server.js and change

  • MongoDB Creditionals - you can use default values for the first time.
  • SMTP Settings - you can use default values for the first time.
  • JWT and Cookie Secret Key - you can use default values for the first time.

  Save file and go back to root app direcotry

  cd ../
  
  

• Install dependencies

  npm i
  
  

• Setup database

• Prepare database at this setup our database is empty. To add default data, indexes and access token we need to run:

  npm run setup <email> <domain></domain></email>
  
  

• We don't have real domain, so we'll use our local domain:

  npm run setup [email protected] http://localhost:3000
  
  

• This script will add token with email [email protected] and my domain to http://localhost

• Start application in the background

  pm2 start process.json
  
  

• or you can start app in your terminal (you will see debug information, that is useful for debug):

  npm start
  
  

• At this setup, we have api running on port 3001 and available at http://localhost:3001

• For example, we can open in browser default store settings: http://localhost:3001/api/v1/settings

  info: API running at http://localhost:3001
  info: MongoDB connected successfully
