The finance app that bites MeanMoney is a budgeting site that allows the user to track their spending, compare it against goals, and get advice on where to cut back spending.
Step 1: Clone the repo
Step 2: Install mongodb:
brew tap mongodb/brew
brew update
brew install [email protected]
Step 3: Run mongodb:
brew services start [email protected]
^ you can swap start for stop to stop mongodb
Step 4:
- go to the server directory with
cd server - then run
npm install
Step 5:
- While still in the server directory, create
.envwithtouch .env - This file needs the following contents:
MONGODB_URL="mongodb://0.0.0.0/mean-money"
PORT = 9000
NODE_ENV="development"
JWT_SECRET="secret"
^so we can write code that only runs if process.env.NODE_ENV is 'development', etc. and JWT_SECRET relates to tokens
Step 5:
- navigate to the client directory (if you're in server, run
cd ../client) - then run
npm install
Step 6:
- While still in the client directory, create
.env - Then add the following contents to
.env:
VITE_BACKEND_URL="http://localhost:9000"
-
In one terminal window, navigate to
/server -
Then run
npm run dev -
Then, in another terminal window, navigate to
/client -
Then run
npm run dev
Backend:
- Under
/server, create a file.env.test - Then add the following contents to this file:
MONGODB_URL="mongodb://0.0.0.0/mean-money-test"
(this should ensure your tests use a separate test database)
- In your terminal, navigate to
/server - Then run
npm testto run backend tests. - For a coverage report, run
npm test -- --coverage
Frontend:
In your terminal, navi-gate to /client
Then run npm test to run frontend tests.
