## Creating a 'First User' in the database
After you have completed all setup steps, you will be unable to log in, because there
will not be a user in the database to link to the login.gov account you are using. So
you will need to create that user in your database using the 'create-test-user' command.
Open two terminals pointing to the api project and then run these commands in the
respective terminals.
(Server 1)
env ALLOW_EXPIRED_API_TOKEN=1 make run-flask
(Server 2)
poetry run flask command create-admin-jwt | tail -n 1 | pbcopy
poetry run flask command create-test-user --admin=True;
Supply your name, email address, mobile number, and password when prompted. Make sure the email address
is the same one you are using in login.gov and make sure your phone number is in the format 5555555555.
If for any reason in the course of development it is necessary for your to delete your db
via the `dropdb` command, you will need to repeat these steps when you recreate your db.
