Hi @jsidney !

Glad to see you liked the product 😄

I've stopped working on the project since I've found similar products on the market (Vanta, Drata, Scytale) and couldn't get enough interest in it. I'd love to hear if you think it's relevant despite these other products, and why.

For you issue - it seems I moved the db directory into the infra directory, so the updated command should be: node -r ts-node/register ./src/infra/db/seed.ts. It should be run from inside the backend directory.

Let me know if you encounter any other issues and also note: a lot of the UI is currently with mock data. We did it for demo purposes. I was in the process of replacing these mock data dashboards with real backend api calls, which are mostly implemented.

thanks for the reply @zvikfir !
i will try and set it up later today with the correct command and work through the app abit.

the tldr version of why im looking at OSS solutions to these sorts of issues is the cost implications.
one of the other issuers that i have often seen with the off-the-shelf products is that there is very little customization allowed when it comes to the maturity model - so if you have a client (i work for a consulting firm) that has unique maturity considerations, you cant modify that.

so i updated the package.json in the backend directory to reference the correct scripts. this is what happened:
when running migration:seed

❯ npm run migration:seed

> backend@1.3.0 migration:seed
> node -r ts-node/register ./src/infra/db/seed.ts

No seed data found! Run generate_seed first.

but when i run the db:seed:generate command, i get the following error:

src/infra/db/generate_seed.ts:3:8 - error TS1192: Module '"/home/jonty/devWork/Platform/github_repos/gitgud/backend/src/infra/db/client"' has no default export.

3 import db from './client';

this is what the package.json looks like btw:

  "main": "index.js",

  "scripts": {

    "db:seed:apply": "node -r ts-node/register ./src/infra/db/seed.ts"
  },

Hi @jsidney !

I updated the main branch to simplify the local setup of the app. Instead of using k8s I switched to only using docker, and also removed the use of ssh tunneling using ngrok.

The most complicated setup now is setting up GitLab access token and application client id and secret.

The app has some hard-coded values which will make it work only locally for now.

I hope this helps. If you encounter any more issues please let me know.
