# Getting Started

1. Install Docker.
2. Set up an environment variable `LAB_MONOLITH_DB_IP` and assign the docker host's IP.

 For docker machine type `docker-machine env` and the value of `$DOCKER_HOST`,
 otherwise `localhost` is probably correct.

3. Set up an environment variable `LAB_MONOLITH_DB_PASSWORD` and assign any password. 

4. `./start-db.sh`

 Starts a PostgreSQL database using the password from `LAB_MONOLITH_DB_PASSWORD`.

5. `gradle bootRun`
6. Open http://localhost:8080
