Contributions are very welcome! Feel free to raise an issue or start a discussion, for help in getting started.
The app can be deployed using Docker or NodeJS.
## Configuration
Configuration is made in the `configuration` section of `package.json`:
Configuration is made using `.env` files (per [README.md](https://github.com/sasjs/server#env-var-configuration) settings), _except_ for one case, when running in NodeJS in production - in which case the path to the SAS executable is made in the `configuration` section of `package.json`.
- Provide path to SAS9 executable.
The `.env` file should be created in the location(s) below. Each folder contains a `.env.example` file that may be adjusted and renamed.
* `.env` - the root .env file is used only for Docker deploys.
* `api/.env` - this is the primary file used in NodeJS deploys
* `web/.env` - this file is only necessary in NodeJS when running `web` and `api` seperately (on different ports).
### Using dockers:
The actual `.env` values to use are described
There is `.env.example` file present at root of the project. [for Production]
## Using Docker
There is `.env.example` file present at `./api` of the project. [for Development]
There is `.env.example` file present at `./web` of the project. [for Development]

### Using node:
## Using NodeJS:
#### Development (running api and web seperately):
Be sure to use v16 or above, and to set your environment variables in the relevant `.env` file(s) - else defaults will be used.
##### API
### NodeJS Development Mode
Navigate to `./api`
There is `.env.example` file present at `./api` directory. Remember to provide enviornment variables else default values will be used mentioned in `.env.example` files
Command to install and run api server.
SASjs Server is split between an API server (serving REST requests) and a WEB Server (everything else). These can be run together, or on seperate ports.
### NodeJS Dev - Single Port
Here the environment variables should be configured under `api.env`. Then:
```
cd ./web && npm i && npm build
cd ../api && npm i && npm start
```
### NodeJS Dev - Seperate Ports
Set the backend variables in `api/.env` and the frontend variables in `web/.env`. Then:
#### API server
```
cd api
npm install
npm start
```
##### Web
Navigate to `./web`
There is `.env.example` file present at `./web` directory. Remember to provide enviornment variables else default values will be used mentioned in `.env.example` files
Command to install and run api server.
#### Web Server
```
cd web

##### API server also serving Web build files
There is `.env.example` file present at `./api` directory. Remember to provide enviornment variables else default values will be used mentioned in `.env.example` files
