API documentation

installing & running

hvv-rest expects a Redis server running on 127.0.0.1:6379 (default port), but you can set the REDIS_URL environment variable to change this.

via Docker

A Docker image is available as derhuerst/hvv-rest:5.

docker run -d -p 3000:3000 derhuerst/hvv-rest:5

Note: The Docker image does not contain the Redis server.

manually

git clone https://github.com/derhuerst/hvv-rest.git
cd hvv-rest
git checkout 5
npm install --production

redis-server &
npm start

To keep the API running permanently, use tools like forever, pm2 or systemd.
