Domain loader

This directory contains a program to facilitate the insertion of organization and domain data from a JSON file. It is intended to be run once on a fresh installation of Tracker, to seed the database and allow the super admin to start sending out some initial invitations.

The JSON file used for input must adhere to the following structure:

{
  "<English Acronym-French Acronym>": {
    "acronym_en": "<English Acronym>",
    "acronym_fr": "<French Acronym>",
    "organization_en": "<English organization name>",
    "organization_fr": "<French organization name>",
    "domains": [
      <Comma-separated list of quotation-wrapped domain names>
    ]
  },
  ...
}

Below is an example of this structure:

{
  "CRA-ARC": {
    "acronym_en": "cra",
    "acronym_fr": "arc",
    "organization_en": "Canada Revenue Agency",
    "organization_fr": "Agence du revenu du Canada",
    "domains": [
        "not-a-real-domain.ca",
        "another-domain-name.ca"
    ]
  }
}

NOTE: If you do not already have Node.js/npm installed, you will need to do so to use this program.

First, create a file called '.env' in this directory with the following contents:

DB_PASS=<Database Password>
DB_URL=<Database URL>
DB_NAME=<Name of Database>
FILE=<the path to the JSON file>

Then, install all dependencies:

$ npm install

Once the .json input file has been placed within this directory, run the following command to begin populating the database:

$ npm run start
