sole-mates

This is an application to match people who need just one shoe or different sized shoes to their opposite.

Local Development

1. Install dependencies with go get .
2. Build the API binary with go build service.go this will output a binary called service
3. Set an environment variable called SQL_DATASOURCE_NAME with the value host=sole-mates dbname=sole-mates user=user password=password sslmode=disable
   1. You can find the username and password for the sole-mates db in 1Password
4. Run the service with ./service. You can now access the API at localhost:3000

Local Debugging with VSCode

1. Create the following launch.json file in the .vscode folder in the root of your project (replace username and password):

   {
       "version": "0.2.0",
       "configurations": [
           {
               "name": "API",
               "type": "go",
               "request": "launch",
               "mode": "exec",
               "program": "${workspaceRoot}/service",
               "env": {
                   "SQL_DATASOURCE_NAME": "host=sole-mates dbname=sole-mates user=user password=password sslmode=disable"
               },
               "args": ["service"],
               "preLaunchTask": "buildAPI"
           }
       ]
   }
   

2. Create the following tasks.json file in the .vscode folder in the root of your project:

   {
       "version": "2.0.0",
       "tasks": [
           {
               "label": "buildAPI",
               "type": "shell",
               "command": "go build service.go",
           }
       ]
   }
   

3. You can now debug locally using the debug tab in VS Code.

Connecting to the database

You can connect to the database in one of two ways.

1. Log into console.cloud.google.com, go to SQL, find the sole-mates database and connect using the Cloud Shell
2. Find the client-cert, client-key and server-ca files in 1Password and use them to set up an SSL connection with a client such as PgAdmin. Hostname, port, and username can all be found in the cloud console.
