### Docker
Docker can be run in development mode utilizing `docker-compose.overwrite.yml`:
```bash

```
Docker can be run in production mode:
```bash
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up

### Update
You can get a list of packes to update by running `npm run update`.
Appending `-u ` will also update the packages in the `package.json`. You have to run `npm install` again after.
```bash
npm run update -- -u
npm install
```

| [http://localhost:4000/playground](http://localhost:4000/playground) | GraphQL Playground |
## How to use as part of a project
If you want to use this as part of a larger project, e.g. in conjunction with a frontend also utilizing a boilerplate you cannot use the template mechanic provided by github for this repository.
You can use the following commands to include the whole git history of the boilerplate and be able to update according to changes to this repo using another remote.
```bash
git remote add xxx_boilerplate_backend git@github.com:IT4Change/boilerplate-backend.git
git fetch xxx_boilerplate_backend
git merge -s ours --no-commit --allow-unrelated-histories xxx_boilerplate_backend/master
git read-tree --prefix=xxx/ -u xxx_boilerplate_backend/master
git commit -m "Imported boilerplate_backend as a subtree under xxx/."
```
To update the subtree you can use
```bash
git subtree pull -P xxx/ xxx_boilerplate_backend master
git commit -m "Updated boilerplate_backend in subtree under xxx/."
```
Where `xxx` refers to the folder and product part you want to use the boilerplate in. This assumes that you might need several copies of the frontend boilerplate for you product.
This mechanic was taken from this [source](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1683531/how-to-import-existing-git-repository-into-another/8396318#8396318)
## Database setup
The project is set up for a `sqlite` database.
In order to run the project against a mysql database adjust `prisma/schema.prisma`, copy the `.env.dist` file to `.env` and configure the database connection appropriately.
Then run `npm run db:migrate` to generate the database. It might be required to delete the migration folder beforehand.
