Toast Task 🍞

Todo/task tracking webapp build in Vue with a backend in Rust using a Postgres DB.

General

Building

NOTE:

Make sure to develop in WSL, Linux, or MacOS. cargo watch seems to not work when running on a Windows machine, which makes development painfully slow because the docker container must be rebuilt every time to view new changes.

1. Make a copy of the .env.template file and replace items with <angle-brackets> with actual data.

2. Run the command:

   ./run_dev.sh

NOTE:

If docker gives you error getting credentials errors whenever you build on WSL, please run:

rm ~/.docker/config.json

Cleanup

Run the command:

docker-compose down -v

Backend

SQLX

Make sure you have sqlx-cli v0.6.3 installed! The newer versions don't work since rocket depends on sqlx v0.6.

Testing

Inside the backend folder, run one of the following commands:

./scripts/run_tests.sh
./scripts/watch_tests.sh

Resources

• Accessing Postgresql Database

  • Logging into Postgres

    sudo -u postgres psql

  • Commands

    • \q - Quit
    • \l - List databases
    • \c {database} - Connect to {database}
    • \dt - Lists tables

  • Configuration file is stored at

    /etc/postgresql/12/main/postgresql.conf
    

    NOTE:

    Use an alternative port to 5432 on windows, because you might already have a Windows Postgres DB taking up that port.

    NOTE:

    Add listen_addresses = '*' to your postgresql.conf file to ensure you can connect from windows
