This is an Express-based application server written in TypeScript. It uses GraphQL via Apollo to communicate with the client, and also supports classic REST endpoints.

Install dependencies with Yarn:

$ yarn

This should install the ReasonML and BuckleScript platform to compile the code to JavaScript.

To use Postgres locally:

$ createuser -s api-user
$ createdb api-example -O api-user
$ yarn db.migrate

To run in development, use a TypeScript watcher on a separate tab first:

$ yarn build.ts.watch

Then run the server in development mode:

$ yarn dev

The core of the application is an Express server with some middleware:

• body-parser
