Getting Started

Project Structure

├── README.md (what you are currently reading)
├── back-end (a basic express app)
├── front-end (a basic create-react-app)
└── package.json (necessary boilerplate for heroku deployment )

NOTE: - You will have 3 package.json files in this project

  • Top level - necessary for heroku deployment: you don't need to do anything with this file, it is set up for you
  • back-end - everything to do with the express/postgres backend
  • front-end - everything to do with the create-react-app front-end

back-end Set Up and Deployment to Heroku

Basic App

/back-end

  • cd back-end
  • npm install
  • touch .env

make sure you are on the same level as the package.json of the back-end directory

  • touch .env
PORT=3333
PG_HOST=localhost
PG_PORT=5432
PG_DATABASE=postgres
PG_USER=postgres
PG_PASSWORD=""
  • npm run db:init
  • npm run db:seed

Test app locally. If it does not work locally, it will not work on Heroku.

Fix bugs.

When you are ready, deploy this app.
