  • Create a user on PostgreSQL (psql) with a PASSWORD and CREATEDB privileges. Remember to include the semicolon ; at the end of the line.

    CREATE USER [username] WITH PASSWORD [password] CREATEDB;

  • In the backend directory, create a .env file based on the .env.example file also found in the backend directory.

  • Enter your chosen username and password into the respective fields in the .env file you just created. Enter your chosen database name and PORT. You may enter a secure combination of characters into JWT_SECRET or use the following in node in your terminal to generate a secure string.

require("crypto").randomBytes(32).toString("hex")

  • Add a numeric value to JWT_EXPIRES_IN. By default, you may use 604800 which is the number of seconds in a week.

npx dotenv sequelize db:create npx dotenv sequelize db:migrate npx dotenv sequelize db:seed:all
