If you have questions about how to get your copy of Library up and running, join our Google Group, and let us know what you're running into. We also keep an eye on the #proj-library channel in the News Nerdery Slack. We'll do our best to answer your questions.

From the Google API console, create or select a project, then create a service account with the Cloud Datastore User role. It should have API access to Drive and Cloud Datastore. Store these credentials in server/.auth.json.

Be careful! Setting NODE_ENV to development changes the built in behaviors for site authentication to allow accounts other than those in the APPROVED_DOMAINS list. Never use NODE_ENV=development for your deployed site, only locally.
