Routes

You can check out the different routes of the API here.

Running

For running the api a database is necessary. If you don't specify a database, it will create a sqlite database in /tmp. To configure the database connection, the following environment variables are used:

• DATABASE_TYPE (sqlite3, mysql or postgres)
• DATABASE_HOST
• DATABASE_PORT
• DATABASE_NAME (if database type is sqlite3 this is the path to the database file)
• DATABASE_USER
• DATABASE_PASSWORD
• DATABASE_SSL (for mysql and postgres connection, default is disable/false)
• FRONTEND_URL (necessary for cors, default http://localhost:3000 for local development)

Easiest way of deploying is running it in a container. For building a container image you can have a look in the gitlab-ci.yml.
