libcairo2-dev, libpango1.0-dev, libjpeg8-dev and libgif-dev for server side canvas support
C++11 to build internal dependencies. When there's no pre-built binaries for your OS/architecture distribution.

Optional:

PostGIS setup

A template_postgis database is expected. One can be set up with

$ createdb --owner postgres --template template0 template_postgis
$ psql -d template_postgis -c 'CREATE EXTENSION postgis;'

Install

To fetch and build all node-based dependencies, run:

$ npm install

Run

Create the ./config/environments/<env>.js file (there are .example files to start from). Look at ./lib/server-options.js for more on config.

$ node app.js <env>

Where <env> is the name of a configuration file under ./config/environments/.

Test

$ npm test

Coverage

$ npm run cover

Open ./coverage/lcov-report/index.html.

Docker support

We provide docker images just for testing and continuous integration purposes:

You can find instructions to install Docker, download, and update images here.

Useful `npm` scripts

Run test in a docker image with a specific Node.js version:

$ DOCKER_IMAGE=<docker-image-tag> NODE_VERSION=<nodejs-version> npm run test:docker

Where:

<docker-image-tag>: the tag of required docker image, e.g. carto/nodejs-xenial-pg1121:latest
<nodejs-version>: the Node.js version, e.g. 10.15.1

In case you need to debug:

$ DOCKER_IMAGE=<docker-image-tag> npm run docker:bash

Documentation

You can find an overview, guides, full reference, and support in CARTO's developer center. The docs directory contains different documentation resources, from a higher level to more detailed ones.
