IDE Setup

You can develop the Scrumlr backend with an IDE of your choice. Here are some example configurations for

• VS Code
• Goland

VS Code

For VS Code, we recommend installing the Go extension for language support. To run the Scrumlr backend from VS Code, copy the following configuration and paste it into the .vscode/launch.json file.

{
  "version": "0.2.0",
  "configurations": [
    {
      "name": "Scrumlr backend",
      "type": "go",
      "request": "launch",
      "mode": "auto",
      "program": "${workspaceFolder}/server/src/main.go",
      "args": [
        "-d", "postgresql://admin:supersecret@localhost:5432/scrumlr?sslmode=disable",
        "--disable-check-origin",
        "--insecure"
      ],
      "envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/server/.env",
    }
  ]
}

This will start the Scrumlr backend with the configured postgres database and will disable the origin check. It also starts Scrumlr in an insecure way with the -insecure flag. This will use the dev keys provided with the Scrumlr repository. Do not use this flag in production.

This configuration also reads environment variables from a .env file from scrumlr.io/server/.env. Here, you can configure the Scrumlr backend with environment variables.
