# Getting Started with MetaBuilder
|
|
|
|
Welcome to MetaBuilder! This section has everything you need to get up and running.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start (5 minutes)
|
|
|
|
1. **Clone the repository**
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/metabuilder
|
|
cd metabuilder
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **Install dependencies**
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **Set up the database**
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run db:generate
|
|
npm run db:push
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. **Start the development server**
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The application will be available at `http://localhost:3000`
|
|
|
|
## What's Next?
|
|
|
|
- **[PRD.md](./PRD.md)** - Learn about all features and requirements
|
|
- **[QUICK_START.md](./QUICK_START.md)** - Detailed setup instructions
|
|
- **[Architecture Overview](../architecture/5-level-system.md)** - Understand the system design
|
|
|
|
## Key Concepts
|
|
|
|
### MetaBuilder is Data-Driven
|
|
95% of functionality is defined through JSON and Lua configuration, not TypeScript. This makes it:
|
|
- **Flexible**: Change behavior without recompiling
|
|
- **Multi-tenant**: Each tenant has isolated configurations
|
|
- **Declarative**: Define what you want, not how to do it
|
|
|
|
### Five-Level Architecture
|
|
The system uses a sophisticated 5-level hierarchy:
|
|
1. Global system configuration
|
|
2. Tenant-specific features
|
|
3. Module and package definitions
|
|
4. Entity and form configurations
|
|
5. Individual records and data
|
|
|
|

## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Port 3000 already in use
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Use a different port
|
|
npm run dev -- -p 3001
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Database connection failed
|
|
1. Check PostgreSQL is running
|
|
2. Verify `.env` has correct `DATABASE_URL`
|
|
3. Run `npm run db:push` to initialize schema
|
|
|
|
### Tests failing
|
|
1. Ensure database is set up: `npm run db:push`
|
|
2. Clear node_modules: `rm -rf node_modules && npm install`
|
|
3. Run tests: `npm test -- --run`
|
