Run Monstarillo
Generate code by running Monstarillo.
The final step is to run monstarillo. To do so you will need six pieces of information.
- The location of the templates.json file.
- A database user name. Our database user name is postgres
- A database password.
- The name of the database. Our database name is chinhook-db
- The database host. We will be using localhost as we are running postgres in docker.

Use this information to build the command.
