# Twigs Server
This is the backend application that powers the [Android](https://github.com/wbrawner/twigs-android), [iOS](https://github.com/wbrawner/twigs-ios), and [web](https://github.com/wbrawner/twigs-web) applications for Twigs, a personal finance/budgeting app.
This is the backend application that powers the [Android](https://git.wbrawner.com/twigs-android), [iOS](https://git.wbrawner.com/twigs-ios), and [web](https://git.wbrawner.com/twigs-web) applications for Twigs, a personal finance/budgeting app. None of these apps are complete, so expect bugs, and they are all in various stages of development, so expect some feature disparity between platforms.
## Prerequisites
- JDK 14 or newer
- MySQL 5.7 or newer
- PostgreSQL 13 or newer
- (optional) Docker
## Running
Prior to running the app, make sure you have a MySQL server running, with a database and user ready to go. To avoid the hassle of figuring out how to get it installed locally, using Docker is recommended, and a sample `docker-compose.yml` file is included in the root of the repository. If you already have a MySQL server running, you can run the app from the command line with gradle:
Prior to running the app, make sure you have a PostgreSQL server running, with a database and user ready to go. To avoid the hassle of figuring out how to get it installed locally, using Docker is recommended, and a sample `docker-compose.yml` file is included in the root of the repository. If you already have a PostgreSQL server running, you can run the app from the command line with gradle:
./gradlew bootRun
./gradlew run
By default, twigs will try to connect to the `budget` database on `localhost`, using `budget` as the user and password. To change these values, you can modify the `api/src/main/resources/application.properties` file (but don't commit it!), or better yet, set the appropriate environment variables using the uppercase names and replacing the `.`s with `_`s. For example, to change the `spring.datasource.username` property (the database username), you could set the value in an environment variable called `SPRING_DATASOURCE_USERNAME`.
## Configuration
Some parameters of Twigs can be configured via environment variables:
Environment Variable|Default Value|Note
:---:|:---:|:---
`TWIGS_PORT`|`8080`|Port for web server to listen on
`TWIGS_DB_HOST`|`localhost`|PostgreSQL server host
`TWIGS_DB_PORT`|`5432`|PostgreSQL server port
`TWIGS_DB_NAME`|`twigs`|PostgreSQL database name
`TWIGS_DB_USER`|`twigs`|PostgreSQL database user
`TWIGS_DB_PASS`|`twigs`|PostgreSQL database password
`TWIGS_PW_SALT`||Salt to use for password, generated if empty or null
## Building
Building the app is also handled with gradle:
./gradlew bootJar
./gradlew shadowJar
