This repository contains the code of the service that stores the news sent from the scrapers. This code only stores the news, for the scrapers you will also need the scrapers repo
You will need an instance of a mongodb database running to store the news.
To easily run a mongo instance you can use docker.
docker pull mongo
sudo docker run -p 27017:27017 -it -d --restart always mongo
To install docker go here
You will also need golang (version 1.12 at least). Follow this to install it.

Move to the cloned directory and create a file named .env . Inside this file you will need to add two variables, one with the mongo url and another with an invented password for encripting tokens. If you are running mongo locally (as explained in the installation), you can use the following .env file:
token_password = thisIsTheJwtPassword database_url =mongodb://localhost:27017 -
Run the golang code that starts the rest service on port 8000. Inside the project folder run:
go run main.go
