Development Setup

Prerequisites

  • OS: Linux or macOS
  • IDE: Intellij (recommended) or equivalent IDE
  • PostgreSQL

Project Setup

  1. Setup the supertokens-core by following this guide. If you are not modifying the supertokens-core repo, then you do not need to fork that.
  2. Start PostgreSQL on port 5432, listening to locahost or 0.0.0.0.
  3. Create a PostgreSQL user (if not already exists) with username root and password root
  4. Create a database called supertokens.
  5. Fork the supertokens-pstgresql-plugin repository
  6. Open modules.txt in the supertokens-root directory and change it so that it looks like (the last line has changed): 
    // put module name like module name,branch name,github username(if contributing with a forked repository) and then call ./loadModules script        
core,master
plugin-interface,master
postgresql-plugin,master,<your github username>
  7. Run ./loadModules in the supertokens-root directory. This will clone your forked supertokens-postgresql-plugin repo.
  8. Follow the CONTRIBUTING.md guide from supertokens-core repo for modifying and testing.
