## Disclaimer
We're working to stabilize the 2.0 API, and until then there will be breaking changes.
## Documentation
Comprehensive developer and user documentation can be found in our:
#### 📚 [Speckle Docs website](https://speckle.guide/dev/)
## Introduction
The Speckle Server is a node application tested against v12. To start it locally:
First, ensure you have postgres and redis ready and running:
- ensure you have a local instance of postgres running
- create a postgres db called `speckle2_dev`
- ensure you have an instance of redis running
Finally, in the `packages/server` folder:
- copy the `.env-example` file to `.env`,
- open and edit the `.env` file, filling in the required variables,
- run `npm install`,
- finally `npm run dev`,
- check `localhost:3000/graphql` out!
## Developing
The server consists of several semi-related components, or modules. These can be found in `/modules`. Module composition:
- an `index.js` file that exposes two functions, `init` and `finalize` (mandatory)
- a `graph` folder, with two subfolders, namely `resolvers` and `schemas` (optional - these will be picked up and merged).
## Server & Apps
### Frontend
- In **development** mode, the Speckle Server will proxy the frontend from `localhost:8080` to `localhost:3000`. If you don't see anything, ensure you've run `npm run dev` in the frontend package.
- In **production** mode, the Speckle Server will statically serve the frontend app from `../packages/frontend/dist`.
### GraphIQL
A GraphIQL app is available for authenticated api exploration at `localhost:3000/explorer`. Note that for the authentication flow to work, you need to have the frontend running first.
### GraphQL Playground
For non-authenticated api exploration, you can use the Graphql Playground which is available by default at `localhost:3000/graphql`.
## Testing
To run all tests, simply run `npm run test`. To run specific tests, use the `mocha --grep @subset` syntax. For example:
- `mocha --grep @auth --watch` to run tests pertaning to the auth module only in watch mode.
- `mocha --grep @core-streams --watch` to run tests pertaining to stream related services.
