Running

When running locally, make sure an Elasticsearch instance is running. Environment variables that need to be set are:

Example docker run command (assuming you are in the api directory):

docker run --name test-api \
  -e "ELASTICSEARCH_HOST=test-elasticsearch" \
  -e "ELASTICSEARCH_PORT=9200" \
  -e "PORT=3333" \
  --link test-elasticsearch \
  -p 3333:3333 \
  -v `pwd`:/usr/src/app \
  elasticsearch-api

Example docker-compose:

test-api:
  build: ./api
  volumes:
    - ./api/app:/usr/src/app
  links:
    - test-elasticsearch
  environment:
    - ELASTICSEARCH_HOST=test-elasticsearch
