Fixed #341

Create a script to use Docker container to build a Debian package.

Once the .deb is generated, one can install the package by

sudo apt install ./<package>.deb

Note: The ./ is important - it tells apt to install from a local file
rather than searching repositories.

Once it's installed, one can run the binary directly

dejacode

I need the following to run the test after installed the debian package

Create and configure a PostgreSQL user named dejacode

psql -h localhost -U postgres -c "CREATE USER dejacode; ALTER USER dejacode CREATEDB; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE dejacode TO dejacode;" 2>/dev/null || psql -h localhost -U postgres -c "ALTER USER dejacode CREATEDB; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE dejacode TO dejacode;"

Assuming the system has postgresql, if not, install it with

sudo apt install postgresql-client

Sets up environment variables and runs a test

PGPASSWORD="password" SECRET_KEY=secret dejacode test
  • Replace the "password" with the PostgreSQL password
