To get started developing copy configuration/example-configuration.json to configuration/development-configuration.json and edit as required.

> docker-compose up

This will start the API and db containers. It will automatically run npm install in api folders so you don't need to.

Saving API code triggers auto reload.

• Find the api container ID : dps | grep api | awk '{print $1}'
• Exec into the container: docker exec -it ${CONTAINER ID} bash
• Run the Jest Testing environment: npm run test:watch

When you save a test file the tests will re-run automatically. Saving a changed code file (ie not a test file) does not re-run the tests.
