Usage

This project is intended to be used as a base for your own projects. How you’ll be doing this is completely up to you. Some people prefer to fork the project while others prefer just copying its contents to a new repository and working from there.

Building

There’s a Dockerfile that will do pretty much all you need to get a container ready for production. If you don’t use docker, you’ll need to execute several steps to get the project ready to launch, but we do recommend using docker and docker-compose for development your development environment since there are several advantages in doing so.

If you still want to use it without docker, here’s the basic steps to get the project running:

1. Get the files

git clone https://github.com/idwall/api-to.git
cd api-to

2. Install dependencies

npm install -g typescript
npm install

3. Compile the source

tsc

4. Run

node index
