Development

This projects requires

After cloning the repository, run

pnpm i

Create a .env file with the following:

DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:password@localhost:2430/civicconnect_db
OPENAI_API_KEY=

The database URL postgres://user:password@localhost:2430/civicconnect_db is the local development database created in a Docker volume.

Create an OpenAI API key at platform.openai.com/api-keys.

To setup the local database and add seed data, run

pnpm db:reset  # warning: this will delete all data in the local database

This commands runs

  • pnpm db:down: deletes the database
  • pnpm db:up: sets up the database
  • pnpm db:seed: runs the seed script to populate the database with sample data

To start the development server, run

pnpm dev

Libraries

  • Nextjs: make sure you are looking at the docs for the "App Router"
  • LangChain: we're using the JS library
  • Prisma: see prisma/schema.prisma for the Postgres DB schema
  • TailwindCSS
  • ShadcnUI: this UI library takes care of a lot of the difficult stuff for us, like complex components (dropdowns, autocomplete, etc) and accessibility
