Running the Server

MONGODB_URI=mongodb://database:27017/
DB_NAME=the_cookie_jar

1. Run server with Docker from base directory with command docker compose up --build --force-recreate and expect:

cookie_lms  | Checking availability of database:27017

cookie_lms  | Host database:27017 is now available
cookie_lms  | ...
