Developement

The source code contains the API server and the frontend. To launch the api run npm run dev-api. Keep in mind this server will look for a MONGODB_URI or MONGODB_URI_TEST environment variable. To launch the dev server with hot reload npm start dev

Testing

To test the api provide a MONGODB_URI_TEST environment variable and run npm run test-api

To test the frontend npm run test To only run unit tests npm run unit-test

Production

Step 1 Build the webapp npm build

Step 2 Provide environment variable

NODE_ENV=production
MONGODB_URI=url

Step 3 Run Express server npm run prod

Build Setup

# install dependencies
npm install

# serve with hot reload at localhost:8080
npm run dev

# build for production with minification
npm run build

# build for production and view the bundle analyzer report
npm run build --report

# run unit tests
npm run unit

# run e2e tests
npm run e2e

# run all tests
npm test

Notes

Previously had each node be a component because the expected complexity of them moving forward. However passing in nodes as props made them lose reactivity so I chose to therefore have them directly access the vuex store to preserve reactivity.
