Star Wars API

Project setup

• have lerna installed globally npm i -g lerna or use npx
• install all dependencies npx lerna bootstrap
• from the root, run npm i to install some common dev packages and also set up git hooks automatically
• create .env file in each package, based on the package's .env.example file
• to launch the api and client, run npm start in each application

Working with Lerna and packages

• add new packages with npx lerna create <package-name>
• to install a local dependency specifically for one package, run npx lerna add --scope=<your-package> <package-name>

Pre-commit hooks

Pre-commit hooks use native Git hooks. The following should be done for hooks to work:

• ensure the pre-commit hook file in git-hooks directory is executable
• ensure your git config knows about the git-hooks folder. If needed, run git config core.hooksPath ./git-hooks (done automatically after you do npm install in the root).
