Testing Plaid Webhooks

Install and run ngrok:

> brew cask install ngrok
> ngrok http 8000

Forwarding                    <https://ea1774d9.ngrok.io> -> localhost:8000

Add the ngrok id to the REACT_APP_NGROK_ID environment variable in docker-compose.yml (in this case ea1774d9). Kill and restart docker containers.

Start a local django server running on port 8000 to receive requests from ngrok. Now any webhook coming from Plaid will forward through ngrok (http://ea1774d9.ngrok.io) to localhost:8000.

> cd api
> pyenv activate budget
