LAUNCH OF CONTAINERIZED APPLICATION:

Console utility:

1. Clone the repository.
2. Obtain an access token on the GitHub platform (https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token).
3. Add a .env file in the root folder of the backend and include the directive TOKEN = your_token.
4. Create and run the application container (do not close the tab):
   • docker-compose build
   • docker-compose up
5. In a new tab from the project directory, run the command docker ps and copy the ID of the running container (container_ID).
6. Run the command docker exec -it container_ID /bin/bash.
7. Run the command npm run crawler. Note: To successfully save data to the local machine, you need to grant Docker access to the folder where MongoDB saves data. In our case, this is: /usr/local/var/mongodb

Web client:

1. Follow steps 1-3 from the console application launch instruction.
2. Go to http://localhost:8080/ and use the web interface to start the application.

LAUNCH OF LOCAL APPLICATION:

2. Start MongoDB.
3. Follow steps 1-3 from the containerized application launch instruction.
