2. Install dependencies: `go mod download`
3. Create a `.env` file in the root directory with the following variables:
```sh
PG_HOST=your_postgres_host
PG_USER=your_postgres_user
PG_PASSWORD=your_postgres_password
PG_DB=your_postgres_database
PG_PORT=your_postgres_port
NEWS_API_KEY=your_newsapi_key
GNEWS_API_KEY=your_gnews_key
GIN_MODE=debug
```
4. Run the server: `go run main.go`
## How to test
Currently, there are no automated tests implemented. This is an area for future improvement.
## How to build
