sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install mysql-server

Run Project Locally

You might want to run the service in your local machine. This backend service runs on port :1235, meanhile another frontend service (pikopos-frontend) runs on port :8080.

1. Init MySQL

   mysql -h localhost -u root -p < ./setup/deploy_00.00.001_init_schema.sql

2. Setting Up NGINX

   Setting up NGINX so opening localhost:1111 will redirect to localhost:1235 for backend endpoints and localhost:8080 for frontend endpoints

   1. Create a new file called pikopos in nginx's sites-available:

      sudo touch /etc/nginx/sites-available/pikopos

      sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/pikopos

      upstream pikopos {
          server localhost:57672;
      }
      
      upstream frontend {
          server localhost:8080;
      }
      
      server {
          listen 1111;
      
          location / {
          proxy_pass http://frontend;
          }
      
          location ~ ^/(ping|auth|employee) {
              proxy_pass http://pikopos;
          }
      }
      
      

   2. Create a symbolic link in sites-enabled to pikopos file in sites-available:

      sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/pikopos /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/pikopos

   3. Test and Restart nginx service

      sudo nginx -t && sudo service nginx restart

      The first command sudo nginx -t is used to test whether we have an error in the config or not. If there is no error, then we restart the nginx service by using sudo service nginx restart

      We might want check whether the nginx service successfully running or not by checking it's status

      sudo service nginx status

      pres q to quit

3. TODO: create tunneling for login / or just inject cookie?

4. Run Backend and Frontend services

   1. Run Backend Service

      go run app.go

   2. Run Frontend Service

      See PikoPOS Frontend Repository for running the frontend service

5. Test whether backend is running

   curl -G localhost:1111/ping
