Development setup

The easiest way to get up and running is to install and use Docker for running both Postgres and Clickhouse.

Start the environment:

  1. Run both make postgres and make clickhouse.
  2. Run mix ecto.create. This will create the required databases in both Postgres and Clickhouse.
  3. Run mix ecto.migrate to build the database schema.
  4. Run npm ci --prefix assets to install the required node dependencies.
  5. Run mix phx.server to start the Phoenix server.
  6. The system is now available on localhost:8000.

Creating an account

  1. Navigate to http://localhost:8000/register and fill in the form.
  2. An e-mail won't actually be sent, but you can find the activation in the Phoenix logs in your terminal. Search for %Bamboo.Email{assigns: %{link: " and open the link listed.
  3. Fill in the rest of the forms and for the domain use dummy.site
  4. Run make dummy_event from the terminal to generate a fake pageview event for the dummy site.
  5. You should now be all set!
