# Getting Started

## Project structure

Follows https://github.com/golang-standards/project-layout

## Building From Source

This project requires Go +1.13 and Go module support.

To build the project run:

```
make
```

## Bootstrap infrastructure and run application

This project requires docker and docker compose to run the required services.

1. To run the services:

```
docker-compose up
```

2. To create database

```
docker run --network="host" -it cockroachdb/cockroach:v19.2.1 sql --insecure -e "$(cat ./scripts/create.db.sql)"
```

```

5. Navigate to users list [page](http://127.0.0.1/users)

## CI and Static Analysis

### CI

All pull requests will run through CI, which is currently hosted by Github-CI.
Community contributors should be able to see the outcome of this process by looking at the checks on their PR.
Please fix any issues to ensure a prompt review from members of the team.

### Static Analysis

This project uses the following static analysis tools.
Failure during the running of any of these tools results in a failed build.
Generally, code must be adjusted to satisfy these tools, though there are exceptions.

- [go vet](https://golang.org/cmd/vet/) checks for Go code that should be considered incorrect.
- [go fmt](https://golang.org/cmd/gofmt/) checks that Go code is correctly formatted.
- [golangci-lint](https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lintt) checks for things like: unused code, code that can be simplified, code that is incorrect and code that will have performance issues.
- [go mod tidy](https://tip.golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Add_missing_and_remove_unused_modules) ensures that the source code and go.mod agree.

# Releasing
