Foreword

If you see a step below that could be improved (or is outdated), please update the instructions. We rarely go through this process ourselves, so your fresh pair of eyes and your recent experience with it, makes you the best candidate to improve them for other users. Thank you!

Development

Prerequisite

1. Make sure you have Node.js version 16.x and NPM version 8.x.

• We recommend using nvm: nvm install && nvm use.

2. Make sure you have a PostgreSQL database available

• Check the version: 11.0, 10.3, 9.6.8, 9.5.12, 9.4.17, 9.3.22 or newer
• Check that the PostGIS extension is available
• More info in our PostgreSQL Database documentation

3. For node-gyp, make sure you have Python 2 available and configured as the active version.

• You can use pyenv to manage Python versions.

Install

We recommend cloning the repository in a folder dedicated to opencollective projects.

git clone [email protected]:opencollective/opencollective-api.git opencollective/api
cd opencollective/api
npm install

Start

npm run dev

• API is started on http://localhost:3060
• A local email inbox is started on http://localhost:1080

Troubleshooting

• If you're running into node-gyp issues related to Python 3 vs Python 2, you can run: npm rebuild
• If you have issues with PostgreSQL, check our dedicated documentation
