• MongoDB (https://www.mongodb.com/)
• Redis (https://redis.io/)

Installing

Go to root folder of the project

npm install
gulp install

This will install the dependencies that we need to run the project.

Developing

In order to be able to compile the code you need to generate the html and js code that will be stored on the public folder to pushed into production. To do that you need to run

gulp compile

After that you should run

gulp develop

This will launch the development environment on localhost:8000 for development purposes.

After this point you should go to localhost:8000 to see the platform running.

Testing

To run the server tests run the following command

gulp  test:server

Note that the mocha has a timeout of 5000ms. Due to the timeout used to simulate a queue those tests will fail. Please reduce the timeout on the conversion-controller.ts to make those tests work.
