Database configuration
In order to store preset maps and job statuses we need a Redis instance running. Learn how to setup and run a Redis here. With the Redis instance running, set its configuration variables:
export REDIS_ADDR=192.0.2.31
export REDIS_PASSWORD=p4ssw0rd.here
If you are running Redis in the same host of the API and on the default port (6379) the API will automatically find the instance and connect to it.
With all environment variables set and redis up and running, clone this repository and run:
$ git clone https://github.com/video-dev/video-transcoding-api.git
$ make run
Running tests
$ make test
