Running Locally

1. Start the backend containers with make refresh
2. Start the application with make run

The application can also be tested from within a Docker container:

docker build -t siren:latest .
docker run --env-file .env -it --rm --name siren siren:latest

Authentication

The Siren service uses a stateful JWT authentication system, which allows for the ability to revoke and expire tokens, as well as to allow for the ability to have multiple tokens per user. A public/private key is needed for the JWT. The keys can be generated with ./generate_keys.sh. These keys should be located within a /keys directory in the root of the project. The KEYS_DIR_PATH within the service's .env file should be updated to reflect the location of the keys.
