Magic CLI

The best server maker.

1. pip install magic-cli (make sure the pip points to the correct python (3.6+))

2. cd into the directory you want the server to be in

// use the cli to create the app

3. magic create < app name >

4. cd < app name >

// now make the virtual env and pip install the requirements 5) python3 -m venv venv

6. source venv/bin/activate

7. pip install -r requirements.txt

// files needed to run 8) Create an .env file in the < app name > directory.

a) Use the ".example_env" as a template. Fill in the env variables for the services you will need to use.

b) The SERVICE and TASKS_TABLE_NAME are required for the app.

// add firestore

1. add the firestore service account json to the < app name > and name it "my-service-account.json"

// to deploy to aws lambda

That should be it for the setup!
