This is my first participation in a Hackathon with a Dapp and is the reason why I wanted to get an idea of the structure of the application. After doing that, the structure of my application was organized in my mind.
I created a data model based on the features I wanted to have.
-
Building an application in Web3 gives you the possibility to explore the diverse payment alternatives.
-
During coding, I learned concepts such as:
- data model
- user story -data examples
- Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
-
Normally I use Angular as a framework for the front end, however this time the open source project stack I chose is with react. It was a challenge for me to learn this new syntax.
-
I solved the functionality of displaying a certain amount of post on the home page with this service.
-
Doing the frontend as a backend was another challenge, things like connecting the database to the frontend was new to me.
-
Do not get lost in unnecessary functions for this initial prototype.
-
Know how to allocate time for each task
-
Not to focus on making it look pretty the first time, only on the functionalities
- Node v18 or higher
- PNPM
- Docker
Clone the repo and install dependencies:
git clone [email protected]:pubkeyapp/connectamind.git
cd connectamind
pnpm
You can run the automatic setup script to create the .env
file, test the setup and push the database schema.
pnpm setup
Copy the .env.example
file to .env
and fill in the missing values.
cp .env.example .env
You will need to start the database before starting the backend.
pnpm dev:services
If you start from scratch, you will need to push the database schema to the database.
pnpm prisma db push
Also, after each change to the schema in prisma/schema.prisma
, you will need to run the above command again.
pnpm dev:api
pnpm dev:web
pnpm dev:sdk
You can use the following commands to generate new models, API features, web features and SDK types.
The following command will generate a new model in prisma/schema.prisma
.
You will need to run pnpm prisma db push
to push the schema to the database.
pnpm nx g prisma-model company
Output:
> NX Generating @connectamind/tools:prisma-model
UPDATE prisma/schema.prisma
The following command will generate a new API feature in libs/api/company/*
.
You will need to restart the API server to make sure it picks up the new libraries.
pnpm nx g api-feature company
Output:
> NX Generating @connectamind/tools:api-feature
CREATE libs/api/company/data-access/...
CREATE libs/api/company/feature/...
UPDATE libs/api/core/feature/src/lib/api-core-feature.module.ts
CREATE libs/sdk/src/graphql/feature-company.graphql
CREATE apps/api-e2e/src/api/api-company-feature.spec.ts
