To get started, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed:

• Docker (>= 24.0.0)\
• tern

Clone the repo and cd it:

git clone https://github.com/grassrootseconomics/sarafu.network.git && cd sarafu.network

Install NPM dependencies:

pnpm i

Start postgres via Docker Compose:

cd dev
docker compose up

Update env.local file:

cp .env.local.example .env.local
# Update any value that you would like to change

Prepare DB:

In another folder, e.g. /tmp, clone cic-graph

git clone https://github.com/grassrootseconomics/cic-graph.git
cd migrations
PG_DATABASE_URL="postgresql://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/cic_graph" tern migrate

Note: You can use any SQL migration tool to run the migrations.

# You can run the SQL queries with your tool of choice
psql -h localhost -U postgres
# Password postgres
\c cic_graph
# Run the queries

Start the development server:

pnpm run dev

Restore from a cic-graph snapshot

If you have access to a redacted snapshot, you can restore the db with the command:

docker run -i -v dev_sarafu-network-pg:/volume --rm loomchild/volume-backup restore < graph.tar.bz2
