 11## Getting Started
 12
 13These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
 14
 15Caroster is composed of two parts:
 16
 17- A frontend app based on [NextJS](https://nextjs.org/)
 18- A backend server using [Strapi](https://strapi.io/)
 19
 20> Caroster is currently in Beta. Big changes can happen, especially in terms of data architecture.
 21
 22### Prerequisites
 23
 24To fully utilize your instance of Caroster, you will need an SMTP configuration to send emails.
 25
 26### Installing
 27
 28Clone the repo locally:
 29
 30```shell
 31git clone https://git.octree.ch/p/caroster.git
 32cd caroster
 33```
 34
 35### Run with Docker
 36
 37First, edit `docker-compose.yml` to provide your SMTP configuration:
 38
 39```yaml
 40version: "3"
 41services:
 42  app:
 43    ...
 44    SMTP_HOST: smtp.myserver.org
 45    SMTP_PORT: 587
 46    SMTP_USERNAME: user
 47    SMTP_PASSWORD: password
 48...
 49```
 50
 51Then, create containers with Docker Compose:
 52
 53```shell
 54docker compose up
 55```
 56
 57Wait a few minutes while the application downloads needed packages,
 58then go to http://localhost:8080.
 59
 60You can log on http://localhost:8080/admin with email `admin@example.org`
 61and password `caroster`.
 62
 63## Development
 64
 65### Frontend
 66
 67These steps will prepare the frontend to run in development mode.
 68
 69```shell
 70cd frontend
 71yarn # or 'npm install'
 72yarn dev
 73```
 74
 75The frontend is now accessible on http://localhost:3000
 76
 77### Backend
 78
 79These steps will prepare and configure the backend to run in development mode.
 80
 81> You need a Postgres database running locally. Start one with `docker compose up psql -d`.
 82
 83```shell
 84cd backend
 85yarn # or 'npm install'
 86cp .env.example .env
 87vi .env # Edit with your own configuration
 88yarn develop
 89```
 90
 91The Strapi server is now ready and the admin is accessible on http://localhost:1337/admin.
 92
 93## Running the tests
 94
 95A few tests are available to check GraphQL endpoints behavior in the `e2e` directory.
 96
 97First, run Strapi in test mode:
 98
 99```shell
100cd backend
101cp .env.example .env
102vi .env # Edit with your own configuration
103yarn start-test
104```
105
106Then, run the tests:
107
108```shell
109cd e2e
110yarn
111yarn gql
112yarn test
113```
