Setting up strapi

This plugin assumes that you are familiar with strapi. If you have not used it before, visit the official docs for more info -
  • Create a new strapi project using our template.
    npx create-strapi-app@3.6.8 strapi-medusa --template https://github.com/Deathwish98/strapi-medusa-template.git
    OR

  • Start strapi server.
    npm run develop <---- For development purposes
    OR

    NOTE: If you are using Copy to clipboardSQLite there is a known Copy to clipboardknex.js bug -
    error KnexTimeoutError: Knex: Timeout acquiring a connection. The pool is probably full. Are you missing a .transacting(trx) call?
    It appears after running Copy to clipboardnpm run develop for the first time . Just run the command again and it should disappear.
