Setup and running

1. Installing postgres and configuring it in spring (optional as an embedded db is used for the moment)

Make sure you have installed postgres, set a password and created a new database. Then you can configure your spring boot application:

#configure postgres
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/<your_db_name>
spring.datasource.username=<your_postgres_username>
spring.datasource.password=<your_postgres_password>
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=org.postgresql.Driver
#create tables if they don't exist
spring.jpa.hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=create

2. Building the app

cd src/main/resources/static
npm install
./node_modules/.bin/webpack
cd -
mvn clean install

3. Running the app

mvn spring-boot:run

Automatic building and reloading (IntelliJ IDEA)

To enable this, make sure you have enabled "Make project automatically" in your compiler settings. Now type Shift+Command+A and enter "Registry" in the search box that appears. Enable "compiler.automake.allow.when.app.running".

Now every time you modify classes, html etc. you will see the changes immediately in your browser after doing a refresh. To make your browser autorefresh every time you change smth in your code, you can install livereload.

For the frontend static content, use the webpack watcher to automatically recompile es6 scripts and scss files:

cd src/main/resources/static
./node_modules/.bin/webpack --watch
