Getting Started

First, you need to install Redis, check https://redis.io/docs/getting-started to install.

start redis server

sudo service redis-server start
# don't forget to stop the server when you close the app with
sudo service redis-server stop

You will need to fill the .env file like this

• Redis HOST and PORT
• a Twitch CLIENT_ID, available here https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/. You will need to register your app.
• a Twitch TOKEN, you need to send a post request to https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/ with the client id and client secret in the body (available in your app dashboard). See more here https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/getting-tokens-oauth/

REDIS_HOST={REDIS_HOST} # usually 127.0.0.1
REDIS_PORT={REDIS_PORT} # usually 6379
TWITCH_CLIENT_ID={TWITCH_CLIENT_ID}
TWITCH_TOKEN={TWITCH_TOKEN}

Then you can run the app with

npm install

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev

API running on http://localhost:8000.
