The `credentials.json` file should be stored in the root directory of this project.\n\n### Environment Variables\n\nThe required environment variables should be stored in a file named `.env` and each line should have the format `Name=Value`. The table below lists the environment variables that will be used by this server:\n\n| Name | Required | Description |\n|:-|:-|:-|\n| GOOGLE_MAIL_SENDER | Yes | The email address of the account responsible for sending emails to users. |\n| PORT | No (Default: `5000`)| The port the server should listen at. |\n| DB_HOST | No (Default: `localhost`)| The database host. |\n| DB_PORT | No (Default: `27017`)| The database port. |\n| DB_DATABASE | No (Default: `files_manager`)| The database name. |\n| FOLDER_PATH | No (Default: `/tmp/files_manager` (Linux, Mac OS X) \u0026 `%TEMP%/files_manager` (Windows)) | The local folder where files are saved. |\n\n## Installation\n\n+ Clone this repository and switch to the cloned repository's directory.\n+ Install the packages using `yarn install` or `npm install`.\n\n## Usage\n\nStart the Redis and MongoDB services on your system and run `yarn start-server` or `npm run start-server`.\n\n## Tests\n\n+ Create a separate `.env` file for the tests named `.env.test` and store the value of the environment variables for the testing event in it.\n+ Run `yarn test` or `npm run test` to execute the E2E tests.\n\n\n\n## Author :black_nib:\n\n* **Prince Solomon** [princexz](https://github.com/princexz)\n\n## Acknowledgements :pray:\n\nAll work contained in this project was completed as part of the curriculum for ALX Africa SE.
