# Backend Developer Guide #

This guide intends to explain the essential details of the backend
application.


## Fixtures ##

This is a development feature that allows populate the database with a
good amount of content (usually used for just test the application or
perform performance tweaks on queries).

In order to load fixtures, enter to the REPL environment executing the
`bin/repl` script, and then execute `(app.cli.fixtures/run {:preset :small})`.

You also can execute this as a standalone script with:

```bash
clojure -Adev -X:fn-fixtures
```

NOTE: It is an optional step because the application can start with an
empty database.

This by default will create a bunch of users that can be used to login
in the aplication. All users uses the following pattern:

- Username: `profileN.test@uxbox.io`
- Password: `123123`

Where `N` is a number from 0 to 49 on the default fixture parameters.

If you have a REPL access to the running process, you can execute it
from there:

```clojure
(require 'app.cli.fixtures)
(app.cli.fixtures/run :small)
```

To access to the running process repl you usually will execute this
command:

```bash
rlwrap netcat localhost 5555
```
