Build
The following build dependencies needs to be fulfilled to support the full feature set of this application:
- cargo-web
- diesel_cli
- postgresql (libpg)
- A container runtime, like podman
The app consist of a frontend and a backend. For getting started with hacking,
the backend can tested via make run-backend
, whereas the frontend can be
tested with make run-frontend
. You can adapt the application configuration
within Config.toml
if needed.
Run
If both, the backend and frontend are running, you can visit the web application
at http://127.0.0.1:8000
. After the successful
loading of the application you should see an authentication screen like this:
Now you are able to login with a matching username and password combination like
me
(username) and me
(password). There is currently no further user
authentication yet, but non matching combination will result in an
authentication failure. After the successfully login you should be able to see
the content of the application:
The authentication should persist, even after a manual page reload. Logging out of the application via the logout button should also work as intended.
Control Flow
The complete control flow of the application looks like this:
Deploy
To deploy the application as a docker image, simply run:
make deploy
After that you can run the application side by side with a PostgreSQL container via:
make run-app
The application should now be accessible at
http://127.0.0.1:30080
.
