greenlight

Greenlight is a project covered in the book Let's Go Further by Alex Edwards.

I've also made a series of blog posts as I follow along this book, check it out at blog.amyndang.me

Setup

Pre-reqs

Have these programs installed on your machine:

• migrate cli
• postgresql

Environment Variables

Create a environment variable with:

export GREENLIGHT_DB_DSN="postgres://greenlight:password@localhost/greenlight"

OR create a .envrc file. Use .envrc_example as a reference.

Build & Run

Build API with:

make db/migrations/new name=db_name
make db/migration/up
make build/api

This will create a executable file called api in greenlight/bin/linux_amd64

Run the executable with:

make run/api

Deployment

After setting up server, remember to grab IP Address of server and replace it in ./remote/production/Caddyfile and in Makefile

// ./remote/production/Caddyfile
http://161.35.71.158

// File: ./Makefile
production_host_ip = '161.35.71.158'

make production/deploy/api

Listening to Logs On Production

sudo journalctl -u api

Useful Development Commands
