1. Either install docker (recommended) or postgresql on your machine:
* If you installed docker run the database using: `docker-compose up`
* If you installed postgres locally, create the spoke dev database: `psql -c "create database spokedev;"`
* Then create a spoke user to connect to the database with `createuser -P spoke` with password "spoke" (to match the credentials in the .env.example file)
* If you installed postgres locally (or if you already have a local installation of postgres), create the spoke dev database: `psql -c "create database spokedev;"`
* Then create a spoke user to connect to the database with `psql -d spokedev -c "create user spoke with password 'spoke';"` (to match the credentials in the .env.example file)
* Grant permissions to the new Spoke user:
* `psql -d spokedev -c "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE spokedev TO spoke;"`
* `psql -d spokedev -c "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON schema public TO spoke;"`
* Also run the commands from `./dev-tools/create-test-database`:
```
psql -d spokedev
CREATE DATABASE spoke_test;
CREATE USER spoke_test WITH PASSWORD 'spoke_test';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE spoke_test TO spoke_test;
```
1. In `.env` set `DB_TYPE=pg`. (Otherwise, you will use sqlite.)
2. Set `DB_PORT=5432`, which is the default port for Postgres.
