API Key

To test and run the application locally, you need to get an API key from Storm Glass. The API key should be provided in an .env file at the root of the project.

Example:

API_KEY=Your_StormGlass_API_key

Install Locally

Install dependencies:

yarn

Test

Run the local tests:

yarn test

Natively run the application (defaults to port 8080):

Run

yarn start

Call the external adapter/API server

curl -X POST -H "content-type:application/json" "http://localhost:8080/" --data '{ "id": 0, "data": { "lat": 43.38, "lng": -3.01 } }'

Docker

If you wish to use Docker to run the adapter, you can build the image by running the following command:

docker build . -t external-adapter

Then run it with:

docker run -p 8080:8080 -it external-adapter:latest

Serverless hosts

After installing locally:

Create the zip

zip -r external-adapter.zip .
