An application targetted at business owners, team leads, project mangers and corporations that operate via a ticketing systems, like Jira, and need to keep track of their employee's tasks throughout the day. This tool is useful for centralising time tracking on tickets and gaining statistics on employees like utilisation and averages in certain categories of work.
This project uses docker-compose for development and deployment. Before starting the containers, you'll need some environment variables to make them work.
In the root directory, create a file named docker.env containing the following values:
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password // Change this to desired password
POSTGRES_USER=user // Change this to desired username
POSTGRES_DB=cico // LEAVE THIS
[email protected] // Change this to desired email (can be fake)
PGADMIN_DEFAULT_PASSWORD=pgadminpassword // Change to desired password
In the backend directory, create a file named .env containing the following values:
DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:password@postgres-dev/cico
JWT_SECRET=thisIsAnExampleJWTsecret_UwU
Make sure that userand password are the same as the POSTGRES_USER and POSTGRES_PASSWORD defined in docker.env. The rest of DATABASE_URL should be left the same.
Firstly, install Rust, rust-up and cargo with:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
export PATH=PATH:~/.cargo/bin
Make sure you selected nightly rust with modify PATH vairable: yes:
default host triple: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
default toolchain: nightly
profile: default
modify PATH variable: yes
The development environment can be run with:
docker-compose up -d (you may need to use sudo)
Changes in both the frontend and backend folders will hot-reload, so you don't need to restart the containers every change.
You will need to apply database migrations through diesel-cli. This is an ORM tool written in Rust and used to handle the database connections and queries in the Rust API (backend). Install diesel with:
cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features postgres
To apply migrations to the postgres-dev container, cd backend and run the following command:
diesel --database-url postgres://user:password@localhost:5432/cico migration run
Revert the last migration with:
diesel --database-url postgres://user:password@localhost:5432/cico migration revert
And create a new migration with:
diesel migration generate migration_name
The site is currently deployed at http://clockinout.net, running on a Linode server. To run the "production" build of the app, use:
docker-compose -f docker-compose-prod.yml up -d --build
This is not necessary for normal development.
