Cadet is the web application powering Source Academy.

1. Elixir 1.8
2. Erlang/OTP 21
3. PostgreSQL (>= 9.6)

1. Setup the development secrets (replace the values appropriately)

$ cp config/secrets.exs.example config/secrets.exs
$ vim config/secrets.exs

• A valid luminus_api_key, luminus_client_id, luminus_client_secret and luminus_redirect_url are required for the application to properly authenticate with LumiNUS.
• A valid cs1101s_repository, cs1101s_rsa_key is required for the application to run with the --updater flag. Otherwise, the default values will suffice.

2. Install Elixir dependencies

$ mix deps.get

3. Initialise development database

$ mix ecto.setup

4. Run the server in your local machine

$ mix phx.server

5. You may now make API calls to the server locally via localhost:4000. The API documentation can also be accessed at http://localhost:4000/swagger.

You can obtain access_token JWT of a user with a given role by simply running:

$ mix cadet.token <role>

For more information, run

$ mix help cadet.token

We recommend setting up nginx to handle preflight checks using the following config file.

If you do this, do remember to point cadet-frontend to port 4001 instead of 4000

We follow this style guide: https://github.com/lexmag/elixir-style-guide and https://github.com/christopheradams/elixir_style_guide

Where there is a conflict between the two, the first one (lexmag) shall be the one followed.
