1. Node.js (v16.x) – we use nvm to manage Node.js versions.

2. Shopify CLI to manage Shopify apps.

3. VSCode – you could also use another editor, but this helps us guarantee linter/formatter features.

4. Volar VSCode Extension – Vue 3 language support (turn off vetur and ts/js language features if you have problems arising from conflicts).

5. Eslint VSCode Extension – linter and formatter.

Usage

Postgres

There are two main operations for setting up and maintaining our PG DBs. Both are shown below with the example values representing our local environment (but the same operations are used for production). For testing changes and sandboxing queries, pgAdmin is a good app to download and configure to access HT DBs.

Dump migrations from an existing DB (to download the HT schema).

pg_dump -h localhost -p 5432 -U ianherrington -d postgres -f ./heythanks_pg.sql
# Then enter password...

Migrate a DB (to upload or update the HT schema).

psql -h localhost -p 5432 -U ianherrington -d postgres -f ./heythanks_pg.sql
# Then enter password...
