# catapult
|
|
A service that manages scheduling text messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
Docker isn't required, but it is the quickest way to get started.
|
|
|
|
Copy over the `.env.docker.sample` to `.env`. From that point, make edits to the
|
|
file to get it working.
|
|
|
|
### Messaging configuration
|
|
The service vendor used to send the messages is `twilio`. After signing up and being
|
|
provided credentials, update the `TWILIO_*` variables.
|
|
|
|
### Client-Server interaction
|
|
In order for `catapult` to function properly, credentials need to be provided via
|
|
`SERVICE_USERNAME` and `SERVICE_PASSPHRASE`. The credentials are created from making
|
|
an API call to register a service user in `textsender_auth`. So, you need to have credentials
|
|
set in the `.env` file and use those same credentials to create the account in the
|
|
API call.
|
|
|
|
### API sources
|
|
The `AUTH_URL` and `API_URL` variables need to be set for the base URL for the
|
|
`textsender_auth` and `textsender_api` respectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since this is meant to run along with `textsender_auth` and `textsender_api`, it isn't
|
|
meant to be run by itself. So no need to build or run the container in isolation, but
|
|
that capability is present.
