# Setup

This guide provides instructions on how to set up and run the application.

## Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed on your system:
- **Docker**: Install Docker from [docker.com](https://www.docker.com/get-started)
- **Docker Compose**: Docker Compose is included with Docker Desktop (for macOS/Windows) or can be installed separately on Linux.

## Steps to Set Up the Application

### 1. Clone the Repository

First, clone the repository to your local machine:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/username/repository.git
cd repository
```


### 2. Create a `.env` File

Before running the application, create a `.env` file in the root directory and add the required environment variables:

```bash
touch .env
```

Then, open the `.env` file and add the following:

```ini
# Environment Variables
VALID_API_KEY=testtest-api-key-12345
VALID_APP_ID=app1
SWAGGER_URL="/documentation"
API_URL="/swagger.json"
```

This ensures that the application uses secure API keys and app IDs.

### 3. Run the Application with Docker Compose

Once you have the repository cloned, you can easily set up and run the application using Docker Compose. Simply execute the following command:

```bash
docker-compose up -d  --build
```

This command will build the Docker image and start the Flask application in a container. By default, the application will be accessible at `http://localhost:6337`.

### 4. Health Check

You can check if the Flask application is running by accessing the `/health` endpoint. To perform a health check, run the following command:

```bash
curl http://localhost:6337/health
```

If the application is running properly, you should receive a response similar to this:

```json
{
  "status": "ok"
}
```

### 5. Documentation

You can check the Swagger Doc by accessing the `/documentation` endpoint. Run the following command:

```bash
curl http://localhost:6337/documentation
```


### 6. Stop the Application

To stop the application, use:

```bash
docker-compose down
```

This will stop and remove the containers created by Docker Compose.
